    It looks like i inspired you to look for more content like the Delia Derbyshire documentary after you saw it OP?

    The interesting thing about seeing both of them, is that Delia created her music before even synthesizers where created, she invented synthesizing sound for the creation of music. And even the math`s behind disco. Just see what came after when actual synthesizers where invented! Great short documentary/video, thanks.

        ps. serendipity is my word for the day :)
