If you feel like daring to venture into some experimental electronic music, have a listen to the YT link below.
I find it amazing to think that this was made in 1962! Almost 60 years ago! Would be really interesting to know how she made this, with what equipment ect.
Almost incomprehendable today, in the age of computers, Ableton Live and all that.

There's some strange sounds going on there, UFO's, crickets even a didgeridoo at one stage, cheers mate.

Yes, its all very experimental even today, and back in 1962 it must have seemed totally outlandish what she did.
I assume, she used a lot of tape recorders to put those sounds together, since there was no synthesizers available. The photo also suggests that.
