"The Tailedphage T4 is an experimental instrument that plays sound in response to changing light conditions. A light sensor at the top of this synth controls the pitch of the notes played, as the device senses a change in light that change is converted to a proportional pitch and entered into a loop.

Marc Doty aka Automatic Gainsay presents an exploration of the dynamic innovations in synthesizer history that allowed synthesizers to play more than one note at a time.
Part 1 is an introduction to the series and the concepts that will be explored.
Part 2 is an establishment of the definitions that will be used in regard to certain terms in the history of polyphony.
Part 3 is an exploration of how the Cahill Telharmonium, arguably the first synthesizer, created and employed polyphony.
Part 4 is an exploration of what could have been the first fully-electronic (not electro-mechanical) polyphonic device in 1915.
Part 5 explores the core interface, mechanical, and conceptual issues facing polyphony in regard to how to realize it with a synthesizer.
