I understand that some of the sounds were created by equipment that ended in
self destruction.  Has this been tried since then with more modern equipment?
 For example, take a common (and cheap so you can repeat it) transistor and
build an oscillator, then operate it in an oven where the heat can be
controlled and cranked until it starts doing something weird, then push push
push.  Or perhaps running a transistor oscillator starting in a near
destructive voltage/current environment.  Anyone?  Or is the resulting
breakdown less of a continuum and than it is in the vacuum tube world?
