Biography of Dr. Fiorella Terenzi

An Italian physicist, Dr. Fiorella Terenzi recorded an album in 1991 consisting of music made by translating radio waves from space into notes. Hardly musical but interesting nonetheless, Music from the Galaxies interested the eccentric Thomas Dolby enough to feature Terenzi on two mid-'90s albums. ~ John Bush
