Brian Eno - Artscape documentary

Noen år siden, men alltid nyttig å lytte til Brian Eno, også når han snakker om audiovisuell medier:


I thought that originally those few individuals who’d survived in history— in the sort of “Great Man” theory of history—were called “geniuses”. But what I thought was interesting was the fact that they all came out of a scene that was very fertile and very intelligent. So I came up with this word “scenius”—and scenius is the intelligence of a whole… operation or group of people. And I think that’s actually a more useful way to think about culture…Let’s forget the idea of “genius” for a little while; let’s [rather] think about the whole ecology of ideas that give rise to good new thoughts and good new work.
