Critics Pick

“Eno” is the groundbreaking generative documentary about visionary musician and artist Brian Eno, a film that’s different every time it’s shown. The film taps into an over 60-year tradition of “generative art” of which Eno himself is part. Drawing from a database of 30 hours of new interviews with Eno and 500 hours of film from Eno’s personal archive, a system of rules set down in code by Hustwit and artist-programmer Brendan Dawes results in a different film algorithmically generated for each viewing.
