GORDON MUMMA was among the first composers to employ circuitry of his own design in compositions and performance. An extremely prolific composer and a virtuoso performer (French horn), his work is known for the integration of advanced electric principles in the operation of the musical structures. He has termed this approach "Cybersonic" and has applied it to a wide range of compositions (e.g., Hornpipe, electronic music for cybersonic French horn, Ambivex, a surrogate myoelectronic telemetering system with pairs of performing appendages).
