  • the first computer music might well have been made by alan turing on a computer called the manchester baby, or "the baby machine". he played some pitches and rhythms. it was improved by chris strachey later who made it sing god save the king to the bbc.
    • in school he "showed signs of brilliance" but "performed poorly". he went to college and "neglected his studies" switched subjects a few times and then had a nervous breakdown after realizing he was gay
