    I too intend to attend, though 1950 seems a very late date to give as the starting point. What about Theremin, Martenot, Cage's work with optical film soundtrack, etc. , all predating 1950?

    Its tied in to the reconstruction of the Oramics machine
    a really brilliant and significant event for the UK

    Mick Grierson (from Goldsmiths !) deserves a medal for this
