Brian Eno : Reflection

This “thing” (i.e. I shan’t call it a mere App) returns one to one’s quiet center. If there’s anything more important than that, I haven’t yet discovered it in my 62 years here. Is it worth the $’s? Is there anything else one values more than slipping away from the perceptual world? When one recognizes these two questions are the same, one will have reached a decision on whether or not to purchase.

After playing trope and reflection, I end up using them more than I do my music subscription services. With the ever changing generative reflection, I don’t even have to press a button and I always have some new ambient going.

I have been going back and forth for the longest time whether to buy this since I have the CD. So today I decided to buy this, and after 3 hours, I have no regrets.

This app is a work of art I will not deny that. I am running it on Apple TV 4K. Audio was a little tricky for had to tweak it from only running through TV speakers and not my Apple Homepods. I run my Homepods pairing 2 speakers for stereo playback and sound is only coming out 1. It’s a spacious playback but not as dimensional as hoped, as say playback via headphones. Be nice to upgrade app to have more control of audio stereo output. If anyone knows a fix, please feel free to share.

I am enjoying this app quite a bit, but unsure of when the seasons switch. It is, after all, not summer where I am.
