"The ANS was first conceived in the 1930's by Soviet Army colenel Evgeny Murzin.It is a large mechanical device - The first fully functioning version,other than an original wooden prototype,was completed in the 1950's. Each component was engineered by hand.Its purpose is to convert graphic designs made by the composer,directly into sound.Murzin was a big fan of the music of Alexander Nikolaevich Scriabin,so he named his new invention after him."
