Brian Eno's seminal album Ambient 1: Music for Airports continues to fascinate and charm audiences, not only as a masterpiece of ambient music, but as a powerful and transformative work of art. Author John T. Lysaker situates this album in the context of twentieth-century art music, where its ambitions and contributions to avant garde music practice become even more apparent.To appreciate the album's multifaceted character, Lysaker advocates for "prismatic listening," an attentiveness that continually shifts registers in the knowledge that no single approach can grasp the work as a whole. Exploring each of the album's four tracks and their unique sonic arrangements, Brian Eno's Ambient 1: Music for Airports argues that the album must be approached from at least three angles: as an ambient contribution to lived environments that draws upon cybernetics and the experiments of Erik Satie, as an exploration of what John Cage has termed the "activity of sounds," and as a work of conceptual art that asks us to think freshly about artistic creativity, listening, and the broad ecology of interactions that not only make art possible, but the full range of human meaning.If one listens in this way, Music for Airports becomes a sonic image that blurs the nature-culture distinction and rescues the most interesting concerns of avant-garde music from the social isolation of concert halls and performance spaces.

On the back of his published diary Brian Eno describes himself variously as: a mammal, a father, an artist, a celebrity, a pragmatist, a computer-user, an interviewee, and a "drifting clarifier." To this list we might add rock star (on the first two Roxy Music albums); the creator of lastingly influential music (Another Green World; Music for Airports); a trusted producer (for Talking Heads, U2, Coldplay and a host of other artists); the maker of large-scale video and installation artworks; a maker of apps and interactive software; and so on. He is one of the most feted and influential musical figures of the past forty years, even though he has described himself on more than one occasion as a non-musician. This volume examines Eno's work as a musician, as a theoretician, as a collaborator, and as a producer. Brian Eno is one of the most influential figures in popular music; an updated examination of his work on this scale is long overdue [Publisher description].

The twin title — Golden Hours or As you like it — uncovers a theater play in a dance, a meeting between Brian Eno’s album Another Green World and Shakespeares queer comedy As You Like it, a playabout an idyllic golden world of the Forest of Arden into which lovers flee from a corrupt court. 

What happens when the speaking in Shakespeare’s rhythms and poetic imagery becomes dancing, or turns into movements, steps and gestures, as well as intentionality and attention emanating from the thinking bodies? How is listening to a talking-dancing partner, who nonetheless remains mute and wordless, embodied? A plot of gazes, hands and feet sticking out of enamored bodies unfolds an enchanted world of characters and their whimsical manners. For this performance, De Keersmaeker explores a cast of eleven young dancers sparking their idiosyncratic movement expressions in a rich, colorful and energetic dancing palette. Striking a delicate balance between formal abstraction and concrete gesture, they dance their intricate entanglements through and through, their masquerade and games of seduction, attraction, repulsion, misunderstanding and silliness. One is absorbed by the intensity and sensuality of a bright but gently ironic world whose language doesn’t need deciphering to be grasped, yet isn’t pantomime.
