brendan dawes is a generative artist himself and the developer of the film's bespoke generative software. the way to think of it is kind of like a collaborator. i give it some direction, but then it's like, "actually, i've done this," and i go, "wow, ok, let's go down that path and that route." i'm specifically looking to be surprised, surprised and delighted. i'm pleased if people are more confused than they were before, because i think the biggest problem is trying to deal with what i call the appetite for certainty. i think we normally want to have control as filmmakers of every second, so there's a little bit of surrendering that control. but the result is things that i never would have thought to connect myself. when i see it when our generative system does it, you know, it's like, "oh, my gosh, i didn't even think about that connection." that could be making unusual story choices, likejumping around out of chronological order, orjuxtaposing two seemingly unrelated scenes. those choices can lead

a lot of the ways that brian creates music and art are also reflected in the way we created the film, because we're not making a normal documentary where we craft each scene and, you know, time it out. we're creating kind of a structure in software that will create our film. you can think of it like this. up here, we have a pool of pre—cut scenes, hundreds of hours of never—before—seen archival footage and exclusive interviews with eno. down here, we have an empty structure looking for pieces to fill up the slots. some parts of the film are always the same. pieces here are pinned in place, but for the rest, the software makes selections, slots them into place based on instructions from the filmmakers, and edits together a new film that it will never generate again. it can make approximately 52 quintillion versions of the film, which is 52 with 19 zeroes after it.

easy to chalk this whole thing up to technology, a magic algorithm that somehow creates cinema out of thin air. but the algorithm only succeeds in creating moments of serendipity because of the work of human filmmakers who have worked filming, editing and mixing the material before feeding it into the software. it's notjust about the tech, um, it is about the filmmaking craft, and we're using it as a tool to kind of extend what we could do. the system is trained by our intelligence as filmmakers, not some artificial intelligence. a film like this gives us an opportunity to think about what cinema actually is, and where new technology fits into the process of how we make movies. for me, i enjoyed the version of the film i saw. it had all the hallmarks of a good music documentary, although the story did seem to meander a bit from time to time. but for the man the film is about, he's happy with that ambiguity. eno spoke to the audience at sundance from his home in the uk over the theatre's speakers.
