from Apple:

Eno has found a way to display his light paintings — about 77 million of them — in your home. The multidisciplinary artist, with the help of a few technical experts, has created a computer program that continually fuses his translucent light paintings to create an ever-evolving artistic display on your computer screen. The piece is accompanied by a randomly assembled ambient track that’s never the same twice. The program is capable of creating about 77 million permutations of Eno’s visual work and is titled, appropriately, “77 Million Paintings.”

So now we have a screensaver that will not only create random "trippy" crap, but also sound to go along with it.

(Actually, I'd be interesting in hearing the audio, but those "light painting" look awful.)

Amazon: "This DVD will not play on most DVD players sold in the US or Canada [Region 1]. This item requires a region specific or multi-region DVD player and compatible TV."

:(

I'd buy it. I love Eno.

If I'm remembering correctly, most computer DVD players are all-region.

Hmmm...ok. Good thing I haven't bought any weird region dvds to experiment with then.

That's how I feel. I wonder if the dudes who created the first screen saver feel shafted now for not being taken as seriously as artists.
