Description
Brian Eno's diary and essays, originally published twenty-five years ago, offer a unique insight into the mind and working practices of a music industry icon. In 1994, Eno resolved to keep a diary, and what he wrote was astonishing - a collection of ruminations on his collaborative work with artists, interspersed with correspondence and essays dating back to 1978. These 'appendices' cover topics from the generative and ambient music Eno pioneered to his thoughts on the role of an artist and their art, alongside razor-sharp commentary on his day-to-day tribulations. This fascinating, candid and intimate insight into one of the most influential creative artists of our time is now reissued in a beautiful 25th anniversary paperback edition. The new edition features a re-designed A5 size, matching the original diary, with two ribbons and pink paper delineating the appendices, as well as a two-tone cover that pays homage to the original design.
