i just got a BBC4 documentary about the BBC Radiophonic Workshop a 
couple months ago, and have watched it several times over.

the music is interesting, because most of it is either fun, silly, or 
downright scary. i would strongly recommend that anyone who has a 
chance to see The Alchemists Of Sound do so, if only to further one's 
appreciation for how easy we have it now in sound manipulation 
technology.
