The episode continues with Shiva Feshareki and James Bulley discussing their Proms performance of Still Point, Oram’s innovative orchestral work from 1948 that integrated electronic sound and live manipulation.Chapters00:00 - IntroductionSarah Angliss & Ian Stonehouse02:15 - Composer, Inventor and the Radiophonic Workshop06:42 - Inspired by the sound-houses of Francis Bacon11:34 - Working In Frequency, Not Pitch13:01 - Tower Folly and the Oramics Machine16:09 - Working With Post-War Equipment22:12 - Insights and Inspiration from the Archives26:56 - Top Musical Selections From the ArchiveShiva Feshareki & James Bulley32:57 - A Proms Performance Of Still Point37:55 - The Daphne Oram Archive and Goldsmiths41:12 - Creating A Historically Accurate Performance45:22 - Following The Written Instructions53:27 - Creating An Updated ScoreSee also:https://www.soundonsound.com/people/graham-wrench-story-daphne-orams-optical-synthesizerhttps://www.soundonsound.com/people/story-bbc-radiophonic-workshopDaphne Oram BiogDaphne Oram (1925–2003) was a pioneering British composer and inventor, and one of the founders of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. A trailblazer in electronic music, she developed the Oramics system, a groundbreaking method of composing sound by drawing directly onto film, allowing pitch, timbre and dynamics to be controlled visually rather than through traditional notation. Her work fundamentally reshaped ideas about how music could be created, laying the foundations for electronic composition, sound synthesis and experimental music practices that continue to influence composers, producers and sound designers today.Website: www.daphneoram.orgSarah Angliss BiogSarah Angliss is an Ivor Novello Award-winning composer, performer, and instrument designer working across film, theatre, and live performance in Europe and North America. Her work includes the electroacoustic score for Romola Garai’s Amulet and the opera Giant, which combines baroque instruments with electronics and DIY music machines. Drawing on European folk, cybernetics, and electroacoustic engineering, her music explores inventive sound design. Sarah has received the Visionary Award from the Ivors Academy (2021) and a Paul Hamlyn Award for Composers (2018). She’s recently joined the Augmented Instruments Lab at Imperial College, London, for researching lost alternative design strategies dormant in forgotten electronic musical instruments.Website: www.sarahangliss.comInstagram: @sarah_anglissIan Stonehouse BiogIan Stonehouse is an archivist, researcher and performer working in the Electronic Music Studios and Special Collections at Goldsmiths, University of London, with the archives of composers Daphne Oram, Lily Greenham and Hugh Davies.

    Vicky Clarke Biog
    Vicky Clarke is a sound and electronic media artist from Manchester, whose work explores materiality, electrical phenomena and ritual. Working with sound sculpture, DIY electronics and human-machine systems, she explores our relationship to technology considering themes of human agency in autonomous systems, post-industrialisation and techno-emotional states. Her work takes the form of composition, installation and live AV performance. She produces music as SONAMB and her debut album, SLEEPSTATES, a ‘glitchy experimental techno jerker’ (Boomkat) was released in 2022, accompanied by net-art piece ‘SLEEPSTATES.NET'.


    ‘Latent Spaces’, her 2025 spatial sound installation, was created as a selected ‘In Motion’ composer with Sound & Music UK. Inviting audiences to step inside a computational model, the piece draws on her research into machine learning and musique concréte, working with early neural synthesis models and custom industrial datasets. This research practice developed through artistic residencies and commissions with NOVARS electroacoustic department at the University of Manchester, UK-Russia year of music, British Council, and Cyborg Soloists at the University of Holloway, resulting in her works ‘Aura Machine’ and ‘Neural Materials.’


    Vicky won an Oram Award in 2020 from the New BBC Radiophonic Workshop & PRS Foundation. As a solo artist and previously with DIY electronics project Noise Orchestra, she has performed and exhibited at CTM, ICA, MUTEK, National Science & Media Museum, QO2 and STEIM amongst others. Her latest EP AURA MACHINE is out now on LOL Editions.
