In 1972, while i was still ambivalent about my music ambitions, in the second year of my transition to computer ambitions, pondering the combination of those ambitions, I built one of Lancaster’s function generator projects, depicted on the cover at https://worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Radio-Electronics/70s/1972/Radio-Electronics-1972-09.pdf <https://worldradiohistory.com/Archive-Radio-Electronics/70s/1972/Radio-Electronics-1972-09.pdf>. I think i still have  it in the garage, but am not sure if I could still get it to work.
