“One of the significant milestones in building the high-tech community occurred in 1953 when Stanford University subdivided some of its vacant land for industrial development to form the Stanford Industrial Park (later renamed Stanford Research Park).”
David Abernethy, The Prophet from Silicon Valley: The complete story of Sequential Circuits

“Indeed, the Prophet-5 was the first synthesizer to be shown on MTV, in the very first music video that was broadcast in 1981.”
David Abernethy, The Prophet from Silicon Valley: The complete story of Sequential Circuits

“The paranoia was such in the UK that the Central London branch of the Musicians’ Union (MU) tried to ban synthesizers in 1982. A motion was put forward and it actually got voted in, but then the reality of policing the ban sunk in and the ruling got watered down to the effect that musicians could not use synthesizers or drum machines to imitate other instruments and thus put other musicians out of work.”
