This sounds like the computer music I heard when I was about 10 or 11
years old (1961 or maybe 62) -- on my birthday I got a tour of the
computer facility where my father worked (a huge room full of IBM's
or maybe one IBM), and the guys played happy birthday somehow, 
and were gleefully calling it computer music.  A great present!
