This is the most complete exhibition organized to date about the work of Brian Eno, who has created the piece Music for Santa Monica to be seen and heard in the Max Cahner cloister of Arts Santa Mònica (ASM). The exhibition also includes its iconic installation 77 Million Paintings (a large generative audiovisual installation where images and sounds evolve indefinitely, according to a series of norms with a certain statistical dimension, so that each combination of light and Sound would take millions of years to repeat itself).
Lightforms / Soundforms includes an intervention in the baggage collection room of T1 Barcelona-El Prat Airport. There, between June 12 and 18 will be heard through the public address system the latest ambient music album by Brian Eno, "Reflection". This album means, in Eno's words, the full realization of his idea of ambient music (a concept created by him in the seventies), now that computers can produce indefinite and ever changing music. The idea of presenting this new piece at the airport is a reference to one of Eno's first ambient music albums, "Music for Airports", 1978.
Of the rest of works we highlight the generative film "The Ship", a film that evolves continuously, thanks to a computer program of the Dentsu Lab Tokyo studio, from the images and information of several international news channels, combined with historical images of archive. This film is complementary to the song "The Ship" (which Eno describes as three-dimensional), included in the album of the same name and created in part at the Fundació Antoni Tàpies in 2015.
