ブライアン・イーノ作品の中でも興味深いプロジェクトが、1970年代中期に作曲家ピーター・シュミックとコラボレーションした「オブリーク・ストラテジーズ」。1セット115枚の白いカードにそれぞれ文章やフレーズが書き込まれており、創作活動中に壁にぶち当たったとき、よく切ったカードの束から1枚を引くことで古い思考から離れたアイデアや着想を得られるというものです。 アンビエントの先駆者ブライアン・イーノの創作戦略「オブリーク・ストラテジーズ」とは? - GIGAZINE

The goal of the cards (per Brian Eno) is “not final, as new ideas will present themselves, and others will become self-evident”; personally I find it best used to “trust” the card even if it is unclear. Let it drive you down a different path that wasn’t initially evident. (DeepL) カードのゴールは(ブライアン・イーノによれば)「最終的なものではなく、新しいアイデアが提示されたり、他のものが自明になったりする」ことです。個人的には、カードが不明瞭でも「信じる」ことが最も良い使い方だと思っています。最初は明らかでなかった別の道を、カードが教えてくれるのです。 “honor thy error as a hidden intention” “only a part, not the whole” “lost in useless territory” “idiot glee” “take a break” "あなたの誤りを隠れた意図として尊重する" "一部だけで、全体ではない" "無駄な領域で迷う" "馬鹿騒ぎする" "休憩を取る"
