English National Opera
English National Opera (ENO) is a British opera company based in London, resident at the London Coliseum in St Martin's Lane. It is one of the two principal opera companies in London, along with The Royal Opera. ENO's productions are sung in English. The company's origins were in the late 19th century, when the philanthropist Emma Cons, later assisted by her niece Lilian Baylis, presented theatrical and operatic performances at the Old Vic, for the benefit of local people. Baylis subsequently built up both the opera and the theatre companies, and later added a ballet company; these evolved into the ENO, the Royal National Theatre and The Royal Ballet, respectively. Baylis acquired and rebuilt the Sadler's Wells theatre in north London, a larger house, better suited to opera than the Old Vic. The opera company grew there into a permanent ensemble in the 1930s. During the Second World War, the theatre was closed and the company toured British towns and cities. After the war, the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Eno (2024 Film)
''Eno'' is a 2024 musical documentary film produced and directed by Gary Hustwit. It premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 18, 2024. The film uses a computer program to select footage and edit the film so that a different version is shown each time it is screened. The film draws from 30 hours of interviews with Brian Eno and 500 hours of footage from Eno’s archive. Alongside Hustwit, artist Brendan Dawes designed the ''Brain One'' software (an anagram of Brian Eno), the generative technology which powers the film. For live screenings of the film, Swedish technology company Teenage Engineering designed ''B-1'', a hardware version of the generative software. In July 2024, ''The New York Times'' estimated that 52 quintillion versions of the film could be generated by ''Brain One''. Reception Owen Gleiberman of ''Variety'' wrote that "the film conjures a wholehearted and accessible experience within an experimental veneer." David Fear of ''Rolling Stone ...

Cast * Brian Eno * Chris Spedding * Busta Cherry Jones * Marty Simon * Phil Manzanera * Magic Michael * Cindy Cleaver Reception ''The Monthly Film Bulletin'' wrote: "The film's structure lends the portrait an illusion of greater depth than it has, but the format readily accommodates several odd sidelights on its subject's tastes, interests and background. ... And even if the film ultimately has the air of a flexing of cinematic muscles (Sinniger is a recent graduate of the London Film School), it has the nous to recognise a show-stopper when it has one, and finishes delightedly with a sequence of Chris Spedding dubbing a Duane Eddy-styled guitar break on to one of the album tracks 'just as the man hims ...

Eno People
The Eno or Enoke, also called Stuckenock, was an American Indian tribe located in North Carolina during the 17th and 18th centuries that was later absorbed into the Catawba tribe in South Carolina along with various other smaller tribal bands. Name While the exact meaning of the Eno people's name is unknown, the anthropologist Frank Speck suggested the synonym ''Haynokes'', as recorded by Francis Yeardley in 1654, could relate the meaning to ''i'nare'', "to dislike" or ''yeⁿni'nare'', "people disliked". Linguist Blair A. Rudes later alternatively proposed that Eno derives from ''ènu'', the Catawba word for "little crow". History The Enos were first mentioned in historic documents by William Strachey (the first secretary of the colony of Virginia) in his early-17th century book ''The Historie of Travaile Into Virginia Britannia''. Strachey mentions the "Anoeg" to the southwest of the Powhatan Confederacy (centered near present-day Richmond, Virginia) "whose howses are bui ...
