Quote:
Genius is individual, scenius is communal. Here seven individuals come together to imagine new forms of music, realised over three consecutive performances. This experiment had its only other outing last year as part of Luminous at the Sydney Opera House. In This is Pure Scenius!, Brian Eno will be joined on stage by Karl Hyde, guitarist Leo Abrahams, synthesist Jon Hopkins as well as Tony Buck, Lloyd Swanton and Chris Abrahams who comprise Australian improvisation masters, The Necks.

Each concert picks up where the preceding one left off. Starting from a predetermined sequence of events, each performance allows the development of ideas across three concerts - sometimes quite similar, sometimes worlds apart...

Oh man, I am now seriously considering an overseas trip to see this. Anyone who passes this up is absolutely crazy, the Sydney shows were just amazing.

Didn't strike me as too positive a review. Apparently, KH wasn't on his game?

...or spinal tap.

I was at all three gigs, and thought it was mostly fantastic, especially the third set. A couple of more positive reviews here:

Any idea if there will be some kind of release for the rest of us?

Apparently Leo Abrahams is mixing the Sydney Opera House performances for release.

There are bootlegs of this performance (or performances) floating around. I have 2 of the 3.

Big thanks to 'tonyballinger'!

Sounds much much better than Sydney.
I could give a lot for a studio recorded version of these 10 video clips.
Beautiful!! ...and sexy:D
