$31 for that Eno doc in DC tonight. I can't make it anyway

it was $45 in SF so that's a deal. Also, these are special screenings in that they are essentially edited and assembled on the fly (and the director is in attendance). I imagine he may be able to find a streaming partner who can enable this same experience at some point.

Why would they be editing it? Isn't this the generative documentary that's different every time you watch it? Or am I misunderstanding this?

I thought I read that it was "computer" edited each time to be different (and I wonder if that just means that the director actually has access to lots of footage and just shifts it in and out each time)

It is generatively edited on the fly each time it's shown, yes. It runs off some kind of hardware build by teenage engineering that he's named Brain One. The sequences are anywhere from 2-8 minutes long, maybe some are longer.

Haven’t heard it yet but the live record with Holger Czukay and J. Peter Schwalm is out now.

Brain One, that’s the best thing since scalded brie.
