What is the name of the computer which was first used for programming and playing of music?
The correct option is A ELLIAC
ELLIAC is the name of the computer which was first
used for programming and playing of music.
Mathematician Geoff Hill programmed the CSIRAC to
play popular musical melodies from the very early 1950s. In 1950 CSIRAC was
used to play music, the first known use of a digital computer for the purpose.
The music was never recorded, but it has been accurately reconstructed.
Computer music is the application of computing
technology in music composition, to help human composers create new music or to
have computers independently create music, such as with algorithmic composition
programs. It includes the theory and application of new and existing computer
software technologies and basic aspects of music, such as sound synthesis,
digital signal processing, sound design, sonic diffusion, acoustics, and
psychoacoustics. The field of computer music can trace its roots back to the
origins of electronic music, and the very first experiments and innovations
with electronic instruments at the turn of the 20th century.
