Sisters With Transistors

The film SISTERS WITH TRANSISTORS portrays female pioneers of electronic music who made a major contribution to the development of synthetic sound, which was completely new at the time. Today, they appear in music history at best on the margins, with their male colleagues always visible front and center.

Narrated by Laurie Anderson. (Annika Nesheim)… >>>
