Brian Eno draws and lectures on art and music

Wonderful talk in Moscow from 2011 about the evolution of music as a “plastic art” and the changes in art in the 20th and 21st centuries. Includes his ideas about “scenius” and “control vs. surrender.”

Having been trained at art school, Eno is also quite the visual thinker — I drew some of these ideas while listening to a radio program with him a few years ago, so it was a pleasure to him actually draw them out himself!
