So what is Brian Eno working on at the moment, I ask. “I’m interested in the idea of generative music as a sort of model for how society or politics could work. I’m working out the ideas I’m interested in, about how you make a working society rather than a dysfunctional one like the one we live in at the moment – by trying to make music in a new way. I’m trying to see what kinds of models and and structures make the music I want to hear, and then I’m finding it’s not a bad idea to try to think about making societies in that way.”

He has some interesting ideas in his head.

The model of society he's talking about - isn't that libertarianism? Sounds like he's thinking of it, with the lack of strict hierarchy and lack of pre-defined rules.
