Eno --|-- Installations --|-- Before And
After Science --|-- Miscellaneous
In 1996, Brian Eno took part in a festival called 'Urban Aboriginals XI: The British Ambience', which was held in Berlin 23rd-31st March 1996. On 23rd March, the EnoWeb's old friend Ulrich 'Bommel' Bomnüter took some photographs in the 'Parochialkirche', an old, deconsecrated church, where Brian opened his sound installation 'Generative Music' - as far as we are aware, this was the first occasion that he presented his Koan pieces in public. The installation ran from 24th March - 08th April, opening daily from 11 - 17. On 24th March, Brian inaugurated a second sound installation at Berlin Tempelhof airport with the title of Music for Airports, and Bommel was there too. Also running from 24th March - 8th April, excerpts from Eno's Music for Airports were played through the airport speaker system every full hour between 10 - 20.
