A Talk with Brian Eno // Elevate Festival 2021 from Elevate Festival on Vimeo.
For the 2021 edition of Elevate Festival, the acclaimed producer and ambient music pioneer Brian Eno brought his generative art installation 77 Million Paintings to Austria. He joined me on stage for a wide-ranging talk about many of the most important issues of our day. View the accompanying article here.
When the COVID-19 pandemic effectively shut down the world, I was faced with a situation where I could no longer travel, yet I found that using new media allowed me to report more in-depth with a wider range of sources around the world than I previously had access to.
During this talk (and afterwards for my part of an academic book titled COVID-19 Pandemic, Crisis Responses and the Changing World), I shared my experiences and predictions for how new technologies could change journalism in a post-pandemic world.
Is it a tragedy with a joke? Or a joke with a tragedy? Perhaps it is merely the long-dreaded sequel to Johannes' infamous comedy set at "Larstock"!
Sadly, no video exists. This was a live performance of my electro-industrial band “The Understate” at a small Austrian festival called Temp back in 2009, and I think it went pretty well. I’m the angry yelling person.
