As a wee sprout of 12 or so, I once took a borrowed reel tape recorder and conducted the following visionary experiment:

I recorded myself on a guitar, playing a couple of seconds of a C note, picked tremelo. Then I recorded myself playing a couple of seconds of a D note, and so on until I had all the notes of a scale.

Then I cut up the tape and spliced together a little piece of C, a little piece of D, etc.

When I played it, it sounded like a scale!!!

Too bad I never took it beyond that...
