Brian Eno message - Don't get a job

1.5M views · 10 years ago · talk · evergreen

A short message from Brian Eno urging people not to get a job. He talks about creative communities, which he calls scenius, and mentions universal basic income.

HN people share it as Eno's case for scenius and for making room for creative work, and drop it into threads about jobs and midlife.

“Also by Brian Eno -- on Scenius (genius emerging from a community scene)”
