Later this week at The Lost Voices of Electronic Music History symposium in Huddersfield I am talking about the work of polymath musician, engineer, recreational mathematician, circus historian and musicologist T. H. O'Beirne who's engineering work on SOLIDAC (1963) (an early digital computer designed built in Scotland) eventually lead him to produce a series of musical programmes in the 1960s. I found this pamphlet in a book shop in Cambridge which got me interested.

He is featured in #JasiaReichardt's #cyberneticserendipity at the ICA in 1968 but little known after this point especially in the fragmentary world of #computermusic / #computermusichistory.
