"We live in an age of technology in which machines touch every part of our lives. It is not surprising that music has also been influenced by technology." Bernard Wilets - Pasadena, CA, 1983
I'm presently working on a supervision project that takes place in 1983, and have been mining the depths of pop (and other) output between roughly 1978-84. Enter filmmaker Bernard Wilets 1983 documentary Discovering Electronic Music - a concise 22 minute overview of nascent analog synthesizer technology and digital sampling techniques, featuring music by F.R. Moore, Jean-Claude Risset, Rory Kaplan, Douglas Leedy and Stephan Soomil.
Visually/tonally it reminds me of watching The Electric Company in the early 80s: see Scanimate. Enjoy.
