Brian Eno's light-up turntable changes colour in "complex and unpredictable" patterns
Ambient music pioneer Brian Eno is exhibiting an updated version of his illuminated record player composed of two eccentric Perspex circles at London's Paul Stolper Gallery.
Like its predecessor, released in 2021, Turntable II consists of a platter and base made of translucent acrylic, each fitted with LED lights that are programmed to change colour independently.
Brian Eno has designed a new version of his light-up turntable
Thousands of tiny holes drilled into the plastic allow light to emanate from the record player, creating gradients where the two layers overlap.
The colour of the lights and the speed at which they change is programmed to change randomly, creating a nearly endless spectrum of "colourscapes". It consists of a circular platter and base that are illuminated independently
"Several overlapping light cycles will keep producing different colour balances and blends ? and different shadow formations that slowly evolve and never exactly repeat," Eno said.
"I've never ceased to be fascinated by the amazingly intricate, complex and unpredictable results produced by simple deterministic systems," he continued.
"Out of simplicity, complexity arises. That is for me the most incredible idea of evolution theory."

The turntable is distinguished from its forebearer by a matt-white tonearm and a circular base, which echo...
