The Stationary Ark Theme (original, Gerald Durrell, 1975)
This is one of those "If you can't find it, do it yourself" projects. Finally tracked down a copy of this show I used to watch on TVO / TVOntario, on a VHS cassette at the University of Manitoba library. (The Library and Archives Canada collections have some episodes too.) I brought an external USB sound card to record the music, but unfortunately had no way of recording the video except by pointing my phone at a small, 13-inch CRT television. The tape was in very good condition, and had been transferred to VHS from a film reel.
I do not own any rights to this video. The animation was done by 2nd Dimension / George Gingras. Original music by John-Mills Cockell. Video produced by Nielsen-Fe...

    Just as Douglas Rain created a calm, soft-spoken yet menacing computer voice for the Hal 9000, William Osler created a memorable, entertaining one for Mu Lambda 165. It made an impression on me when I watched this show in the early 70s. When I came across something lengthy, technical and confusing, I would read it in the Mu Lambda 165 voice.

    Thanks for uploading this! I'm the creator of Synth Sample, and the one responsible for all the C64 geeks posting here 😀 The main reason the C64 version sounds quite different is that it was not based directly on the John Mills-Cockell version. Using my C64 program "Synth", Tim Donnelly played an improvised version of the melody on top of a sequenced bass line. I later transcribed and cleaned it up, and added it to Synth Sample. I only learned later what the source was, which is why it's called "Tim's Song" in the original Synth Sample. At some point I got in touch with John who told me he no longer had a copy of his performance, so it's possible that a few old video tapes like this one are all that's left of the original music. Jogeir Liljedahl did a very good tribute to the C64 version which is what you hear in some other videos on RUclips.

      I'm glad to see you're still active, George. Your version of this song absolutely haunted me and my best friend the first time we heard it (not in Synth Sample directly but via SWINTH with the visualizer added ontop of the Synth Sample music) and we wound end up spending hours hypnotized by all the music and images, but it was always the Stationary Ark theme that was the most memorable, as well as being the damned hardest song to track down when in the early 2000s I went to make a sort of 'modern swinth' by making a playlist of the real songs that were used in Synth Sample along with the MilkDrop2 visualizer in WinAmp. It turned out to be the only song I couldn't ever find. I ended up using one of the tribute versions instead. But I am glad to see this here, and want to thank you again for being such a memorable inspirational part of my early teen years!

      Breeding of babies of non-threatened species as a lure to pull people is has become a problem because of the unregulated selling and trade of these "excess" animals (less appealing once grown to adulthood) sometimes ending up in horrific sideshows or "game" hunts. Sadly, zoos are far from having been ethically perfected -- even in more civilized parts of the world like the West.
