"The Cultural Logic of Ambient" by Neil Mulholland

So while listening to the CD mentioned in the post below I decided to browse a bit and catch up on musical culture and I came across this interesting essay at MetaMute Magazine

"The concept of ambient has come a long way since Brian Eno’s Music for Airports in 1978. With its successful seepage into the world of art and advertising, its ubiquity has resulted in it becoming a fully-grown cultural logic in its own right. As advertisements now appear everywhere, from bus tickets through to toilet viewrinals, Neil Mulholland takes us on a tour of the latest developments in ambient brandalism, ambicommerce and jambient forms of culture jamming"
