From the sleevenotes: "Teachers seeking original material have found this new approach exciting and stimulating in their creative work for music, movement and drama. The Sound patterns are intended for children to enjoy and may lead them into movement of dance-like character, or involve them in imaginative situations. People who are interested in sound production may like to know that these sound patterns were created by Daphne Oram at her Electronic Studio in Kent. By using audio generators, many tape recorders, filters, ring modulators and other electronic devices she built up the tone colours, pitched each of the notes separately, gave them duration and dynamics and finally spliced the notes together to obtain the required rhythms and sequences."
This very peculiar woman Daphne. I'd love to see The Oramics and visit her in her studio, Maidstone, Kent. She didn't mind rain dripping into the house, but she knew she was doing something important with her invention: To paint soundscapes and music structures with ink.
I have an Australian pressed record with no cover and a bit scratchy but fascinating music, some sounds similar to the tonalities in the Forbidden Planet movie.

Do you mean here on RUclips or here on this record? It's sonic exploration. It's of historical importance and whether you enjoy it on an artistic level is up to you.
Whilst scavenging in an Irish antique shop I found this record. Immaculate condition looked brand new. Amazing stuff!
Probably the 10" 2013 reissue?

You paid for it??! Sucker! I was given my unplayed SIGNED copy by Daphne personally

So it was the competing product of Raymond Scott's "Soothing Sounds For Baby"!

I don't know and I don't care,I love what they did with it and that's ultimately all that matters.
