Brian Eno is a musician, producer, visual artist and activist, probably best known for his iconic work in defining the ambient music genre. He came to international prominence in the early seventies as a founding member of British band, Roxy Music, followed by a series of solo albums and collaborations. His work as producer includes albums with Talking Heads, Devo, U2, Laurie Anderson and others, while his long list of collaborations include recordings with David Bowie, Jon Hassell, Harold Budd, David Byrne and others.

Eno and Wolfe first met when they gave a SXSW talk on ‘Art and Climate’. The talk was recently selected as one of the festival’s best in 25 years.
