Brian Eno : Bell Studies for the Clock of the Long Now
January 07003 Bell Studies for the Clock of the Long Now By Brian Eno
Brian Eno has composed this album of entirely generative music using physically modeled bell sounds of what the Clock may sound like.
This record has grown out of the Long Now Foundation's project - the Clock of the Long Now. This is an idea to create a working clock which will mark time for ten thousand years - not really because we need more clocks in the world, but because we need more encouragement to start contemplating the possibility of a distant human future. The Clock of the Long Now is an icon to long-term thinking.
