There is more .. :)
So Yamaha got a patent on phase/frequency modulation back in 1975 (or
-77), but (as far as I can see) there was prior art dating back to the
time when the sun was still circulating around the earth, forcing
astronomers to utilize wicket algorithms, not unlike the FM/PM patent,
in order to explain the strange behaviour of the near planets. Of
course, those ancient astronomers did not feed their findings through a
DAC to listen to what it sounded like. This is of course easily
explained by that not even basic electricity was well understood at that
time.
(I think that should be kept out of the Wiki, no?)

I am currently looking [in wikipedia] at the
Casio section near the end (regarding
phase distortion.) Wasn't this technique developed way back in the 60's
by french academics?
Let me refrase that to:
I am almost certain that this technique was developed at the "french
national institute of electronic music" (or some such?)
Question:
What is the actual name of that institute, and can anybody cunning in
french help me search in their wayback archives?
