I guess the Cindy at 18'08 is the Cindy of 'Cindy Tells Me', never realised it was inspired by a real person. Anyone know if she recorded anything?

i deleted my comment about his robe!
i think i wanted to post about his robe at all because ultimately i am jealous he had the freedom to wear it

i always get that feeling abut him -- the parts with his costume designer were quite nice too. i had never seen her at work before. she seemed cool.

I have the video in playable format currently in an unclosed tab but... (warning: tech talk) my browser renders the mkv as a blob in js.

Any tips on how to extract blob?

Worst case I can screencap it and upload to gdrive or something.

In retrospect I should have done that thing where you replace the "www.youtube.com/watch?v=" with "www.youtube.com/v/" to brute force it to flash.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Thursday, 28 December 2017 21:26 (six years ago) link

trying to u/l to d'box. hopefully my original download worked

Nevermind, I scraped it. Bear with me for re-up (not on the fastest network rn).

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Thursday, 28 December 2017 22:36 (six years ago) link

Aggggh what cunt pulled this? Just sat down to watch it on the telly with booze, you fucker.

PaulTMA, Thursday, 28 December 2017 22:36 (six years ago) link

oh lol, I'll wait for outdoor_miner to give it a shot.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Thursday, 28 December 2017 22:36 (six years ago) link

fuck, mine is watchable but has an annoying RF code obscuring the upper left corner.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Thursday, 28 December 2017 22:39 (six years ago) link

how do i shot blob?

Copyright holder Catpics is in fact the company of Alphons Sinniger, who made the docu.

that's the bloody file, but i think you need to sign in to use it? unless someone can advise a luddite otherwise.

hmm, it seems you only gave clearance for the file to yourself? (tach*** e-mail address)

(asked you for access, let's see if you got that and can give it)

It looks like you have to grant people access?

In any case, if you have the file, uploading it to wetransfer would be even better/more easy

♫ very clever with maracas.jpg ♫ (Le Bateau Ivre), Thursday, 28 December 2017 23:27 (six years ago) link

sorry, thought i made it accessible. am wet ransfering. . . give us a half hour
think i fixed the d'box access https://www.dropbox.com/s/z1lqe3b4npusqnv/ENO%20-%20Alphons%20Sinniger.mp4?dl=0
but will follow through w/ the aforementioned and post when done

thanks, that works!

second upload failed me so i give up for now, but i'm glad one of 'em worked! but that opening sequence of him on piano is neat. like, no trained musician would likely think to play the keys in such an unconventional way (except maybe Irmin Schmidt?) but the effect is cool as hell

Oh! Thx NTI for the heads-up on this

download works for me... thank you so much!

new noise, Friday, 29 December 2017 01:54 (six years ago) link

outdoor_miner is a local hero, thank you

kolakube (Ross), Friday, 29 December 2017 05:31 (six years ago) link

thank you, o_m

willem, Friday, 29 December 2017 08:41 (six years ago) link

oh wow. i had seen brian eno's tweet with the YouTube link yesterday morning and opened it in a window to watch at the end of the day. another thanks to outdoor miner!

how's life, Friday, 29 December 2017 11:22 (six years ago) link

That actually isn't Eno's personal twitter -- but that's where I found it as well. And o_m, thanks so much for uploading this -- even tho I shared it, I had the in-laws in town and I hadn't seen it yet either! So I just watched it now.

As noted, this documentary of his first album is like an Easter egg for virtually his whole career in there:

Roxy alumnus and longtime collaborators like Spedding and Busta Cherry Jones
Portsmouth Simphonia
Ambient tape loops
Treatments (with the VCS3 mounted in the board no less)
Muses like Cindy
Busker musicians (how he met Laraaji)

So great.

you forgot "making things out of rubbish" <3

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Friday, 29 December 2017 15:45 (six years ago) link

That actually isn't Eno's personal twitter

Too true! Just saw someone who had retweeted it.

how's life, Friday, 29 December 2017 15:56 (six years ago) link

THANK YOU for grabbing this outdoor miner ... psyched to watch.
the "brian eno" twitter account is annoying to me — everyone thinks it's eno tweeting out links to king crimson bootlegs for some reason.

tylerw, Friday, 29 December 2017 21:41 (six years ago) link

are you talking about dark shark?

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Friday, 29 December 2017 22:43 (six years ago) link

Yeah that’s the one (the actual content is fine but I think a great deal of his followers think they’re retweeting eno himself).

tylerw, Saturday, 30 December 2017 03:13 (six years ago) link

Same account just posted it on Vimeo:

Naive Teen Idol, Saturday, 30 December 2017 06:27 (six years ago) link

yeah it is clearly not actually brian eno. like he sits around tweeting pictures of himself?
he's brian eno!

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Saturday, 30 December 2017 15:40 (six years ago) link

Could it be Russell Mills?

Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 30 December 2017 15:58 (six years ago) link

No, it’s not official in any capacity (which would be fine if if the username wasn’t just “Brian_Eno”).

tylerw, Saturday, 30 December 2017 17:00 (six years ago) link

the Roxy video collection Total Recall includes a clip of Eno leading the band through "The Paw Paw Negro Blowtorch."

its Saturday morning and i got some coffee and = i am loving this so much rn

AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Saturday, 30 December 2017 17:20 (six years ago) link

who would have access to the video in such pristine quality?

Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 30 December 2017 17:21 (six years ago) link

Brian Eno's talking head, Brian_Eno?

idk

i have no idea honestly but is that the first place it showed up to a wider audience? i don't remember the exact # of views it had when i watched it, but it was not a huge number.

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Saturday, 30 December 2017 17:24 (six years ago) link

it was around 600 views when i watched it. lucky to have caught it! (thanks ilx!)
