Primitive homemade analogue computers were used to make electronic sounds and manipulate acoustic instruments in free running chaotically generative programs that are written by patching logic gate clusters with wires. There is no machine "memory" aside from the patches themselves, and the equations the circuits reliable math but audio-rate accidents spilling out of hashed streams of data. The same primal state of polarized data pulses build into the complex horrors of culture, finance and communication we think we recognize on our devices. Yet electricity itself retains its mystique, animated not by our will, but by still poorly understood natural laws that transcend human concerns.
