Happy 85th birthday Wendy Carlos, who revolutionised the synth with Bob Moog, made electronic music before Eno & Kraftwerk, & composed scores for Tron, Clockwork Orange and The Shining. A trans icon, Carlos gave few interviews but this BBC one features her beloved cat www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3ca...
