Peter Gabriel Lines Up a New Year of Lunar Releases With O/I
"I have been thinking about the future and how we might respond to it. We are sliding into a period of transition like no other, most likely triggered in three waves; AI, quantum computing and the brain computer interface. Artists have a role to look into the mists and, when they catch sight of something, to hold up a mirror."
"We are not, and have never been, the exclusively self-determining, independent beings that have been given the run of the world. We are something else, a part of nature, a part of everything and feeling a connection, shaking our booty and giving and receiving some love can help us find our place - and put a big smile on our faces."
A new year of full moon music releases under the name o\i begins at the full moon. The songs blend thoughts and feelings and range from joyful tracks to pieces intended for a longer brain project. The creator frames the near future as a period of profound transition most likely triggered in three waves: AI, quantum computing, and brain computer interfaces. Artists are positioned to peer into uncertainty and reflect discoveries back to the world. The work contrasts i/o (the inside finding a new way out) with o\i (the outside finding a new way in). Emphasis on connection, nature, and shared joy informs the music.
