3 That was really great. I was pleased to see Brian Eno and the invention of space music on the list. There is a silent subculture of ambient music around the world, complete with its own public radio show called Hearts of Space. There are big things going on in this genre; it's probably doing the most with emerging technology of any form of art. Eno is still at the top of the heap here, BTW.
