"This is not exactly something about synthesizers. But it is still somewhat relevant because it shows how a few artists experimented with electronic music before the synthesizer was invented. It is in Dutch but it is easy to see what is going on."

ReplyDeletebroadcast straight from eindhoven -the netherlands. :P
Unfortunately the scientists experimenting with these tone generators accidentally discovered the resonant frequency of a indgangkrontron dimensional gate(much like the mercuric pillars in Phantasm) left operating from the late Ordovician / early Silurian eras, and were never seen again.
ReplyDeleteTo this day, if one tunes oscillators along a closely-guarded closed-form quadratic irrational form related to the Fibonacci series, one can modulate a dialogue with these scientists, and learn many secrets and wisdom from the spaces-between-the-spaces which they occupy.
I love this kind of stuff, and I wish there were more vids out there documenting these tape artists of yore.
