This discussion from SXSW 2021 features Brian Eno in discussion with Stewart Brand, the subject of a new documentary called We Are As Gods.
The film profiles Stewart Brand, who is a pioneer of counterculture, cyberspace, futurism, and modern environmentalism. He’s best known for his work as editor of The Whole Earth Catalog; founding seminal WELL online community; and being one of the founders of The Long Now Foundation.
Eno & Brand talk with We Are As Gods directors David Alvarado & Jason Sussberg about the film, collaborating on the musical score, and limiting creative possibilities in the digital age.
So how do we watch the damn film, it’s so often the case with these films, you can’t actually watch them!
