INTRO: If musical genres had birthdays, electronic music
would now be over a hundred years old. The first playable
instruments appeared around the 1920s, but things really
got going in 1957 with the invention of the first vacuum
tube synthesizer. You can still see this electronic fossil
at the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center at
Columbia University in New York City.

Since then, electronic music has been on a roll, merging
with the computer to breed new instruments and new
sounds in a 50-year period of continuous evolution.
On this transmission of Hearts of Space, another excursion
in the electronic soundscape called KONTINUUM.

The famous "space-time continuum" in physics merges
3-dimensional space and time into a single four-dimensional
construct. In music, as in science, a continuum is something
that retains a common character from beginning to end,
and changes by regular degrees. The music on this program
fits that definition.
