Ralph K. Potter

Ralph K. Potter was a director of transmission research in the Bell Telephone Laboratories. He "is perhaps best known for his association with the development of ways to translate speech, music, and other sounds into visible patterns. On the side, he has been interested in efforts to produce a music that may be seen as well as heard, and the present article discusses some speculative thoughts and ideas that have grown from this interest."
