Daphne Oram - An Individual Note of Music, Sound and Electronics Oram Daphne
Daphne Oram (1925-2003) was one of the central figures in the development of British experimental electronic music. Oram left the BBC in 1959 to pursue commercial work in television, advertising, film, and theater, to make her own music for recording and performance, and to continue her personal research into sound technology - a passion she had had since her childhood in rural Wiltshire. Having declined a place at the Royal College of Music to become a music balancer at the BBC, she went on to become the co-founder and first director of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.
A significant part of her personal research was the invention of a machine that offered a new form of sound synthesis - the Oramics machine. Her home, a former oasthouse in Kent, became an unorthodox studio and workshop in which, mostly on a shoestring budget, she developed her pioneering equipment, sounds, and ideas.
