Ri12.jpg


RADIO IMPLICANCIES is a weekly broadcast of recorded and live matter brought to you by Piet Zwart Institute's Experimental Publishing programme. Radio Implicancies starts in the middle. Each broadcast means to engage with the way technologies are worlding the world. Take a deep breath and jump in on other ways of calculating, validating, ordering and framing collections of digital material. Let’s not wait for tomorrow to pay attention to the colonial conditionings of contemporary techno-cultures!

#12.5: Daisy Bell

Decades after its release, we reveal what might have been the real reason HAL 9000 sang "Daisy Bell" in 2001, A Space Odyssey.

Remember how in Kubrick's 1968 visionary science fiction masterpiece, astronaut Dave Bowman is forced to shut the supercomputer HAL 9000 down after it malfunctions and kills the rest of the crew on their Jupiter-bound spacecraft? Well, as Bowman unplugs HAL's connections one by one, the machine has a flashback to its very first day of operation, when it demonstrated its abilities by singing a song. 

The song? "Daisy Bell," written in 1892 by Harry Dacre. But where did Kubrick get the idea to use that particular tune?

It turns out that in 1961, the IBM 7094, among the earliest and largest mainframe machines developed by the computing giant, became the first computer to sing, and the tune it warbled was, you guessed it, "Daisy Bell." It seems certain that Kubrick used this as the inspiration for HAL's signoff in his movie.
