Poême électronique / Elektronisch gedicht

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Po%C3%A8me_%C3%A9lectronique
Dutch text in the opening translated in English:

Philips have created an automatic apparatus that inaugurates a new art with unlimited possibilities, via a synthesis of light, colour, picture, speech and music displayed in space.
The "Electronic Poem," wrought by Le Corbusier, his collaborator Iannis Xenakis and the composer Edgard Varèse aims at showing how our increasingly mechanized civilization is striving towards a new harmony in the future.
The scenario consists of the following sequences:

- Genesis
- Spirit and Matter
- From Darkness to Dawn
- Man-made Gods
- How time moulds civilization
- Harmony
- To all mankind
