The Blind Watchmaker (album)
The Blind Watchmaker is the fifth album by Mana ERG, released on June 15, 2004 (see 2004 in music). It builds on Mana ERG's ideas of coalescing forms of techno, drum 'n' bass, experimental and electronic ambient into a collage of modern music. Produced and recorded by Bruno de Angelis, contributors to the CD include Joe Erber (piano / guitar), Tiberio (guitars), and Lee Stacey (drum loops). Guest contributors who did some electronic arranging for The Blind Watchmaker include Russian composer Artemiy Artemiev and contemporary electronic creator Dieter Moebius (originally with the band Kluster).

Famous quotes containing the words blind and/or watchmaker:
“Most blest believer he!
Who in that land of darkness and blind eyes
Thy long-expected healing wings could see,
When thou didst rise,
And what can never more be done
Did at midnight speak with the Sun!”
—Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
“Natural selection, the blind, unconscious, automatic process which Darwin discovered, and which we now know is the explanation for the existence and apparently purposeful form of all life, has no purpose in mind. It has no mind and no mind’s eye. It does not plan for the future. It has no vision, no foresight, no sight at all. If it can be said to play the role of the watchmaker in nature, it is the blind watchmaker.”
—Richard Dawkins (b. 1941)
