Abstract or description

This paper discusses a historical aspect of computational music, the developmental history of musical automatons.and algorithmic methods of composition. In my research studies I have found that there has been a continuous tradition of using automation as a method to compose and play music since the classical antiquity, a tradition closely linked to the innovations in the natural and mechanical sciences and immanently related to a societies' philosophies of life
