______________ 

Brian Eno, an influential artist who trained as a painter, views art as a generative, evolving process designed to create immersive, meditational environments rather than fixed, finished products. He famously pioneered the concept of "ambient music," a style without a traditional narrative structure, and applies similar principles to his visual work.

Eno's installations, such as his well-known project 77 Million Paintings, utilize special software to combine handdrawn images into constantly changing, random patterns of color and light, an approach he refers to as "visual music". A key aspect of his creative philosophy is "creative surrender" starting a process and then stepping back to observe the unexpected results. This generative method allows for endless variation; 77 Million Paintings, played at its fastest, would take 9,000 years to watch completely.

Eno seeks to create "surrender spaces," places where the audience can get lost in a sensory experience, much like the process of listening to music blend with ambient rain sounds. He sees his art not just as an aesthetic pursuit but as a way of exploring identity and providing a context for personal, contemplative experience, akin to the effect of artists like Mark Rothko. For Eno, art helps us process the world, offering a space for reflection and a means to imagine different futures. He fundamentally believes that the value of art lies in what it does for humanity, both individually and collectively.
