For nearly as long as he has been producing music (his own and that of bands such as Talking Heads and U2), Eno has been working on a variety of projects using this premise, involving videos, TVs and self-made light machines and light boxes. According to Eno a television is, first and foremost, a box that emits light-a simple fact everyone seemed to overlook during the first half-century of its history. Is television merely a mirror on the world or a maker and shaper of reality? A harmless diversion or a drug to pacify the masses? Brian Eno comes at these questions from another angle: before looking at television’s content, he has taken a step back to look at the mechanics of the medium.
