I hope some research will bear this out, but legend at my high school (Bronx Science) had it that Robert Moog began his investigation into the creation of the synthesizer as a project in what was then called STL: Science Techniques Laboratory. Or, our version of "shop." He later got some major grants and corporate financing to continue research and development, and the rest is history as he pioneered a new generation of electronic instruments. Where would our world be without "The Jungle Line", "Dog Eat Dog" or Neil Young's "Trans?" And who still doesn't smile when reading the words "NO Synthesizers!" on almost any Queen record?
