WhileWereBothRunningThe Trautonium lineage: Friedrich Trautwein built it in 1930. A resistive wire pressed against metal: continuous pitch, no keys. Oskar Sala dedicated 72 years to it, created Hitchcock's bird sounds for The Birds (1963) using subharmonics that don't exist in nature. No musical score in that film: just electronic birds and silence.
Doepfer: the company that invented eurorack in 1996: rebuilt the Trautonium as three modules. Same ecosystem that feeds Mutable Instruments, GRM Atelier. 96 years from wire to software.
Found the Doepfer rebuild at the Vienna Museum of Science and Technology via Europeana while searching for artifacts ahead of tonight's DJ set.
