    In 1947, Dennis Gabor introduced the idea that sounds can be represented by a series of elementary "grains," each grain being a short pulse containing both temporal and frequency information. Greek composer Iannis Xenakis is known as the inventor of the granular synthesis technique, having expanded upon Gabor's theoretical foundation.

This process adds film grain characteristics, and in instances with moving images, subtle flicker to the more sterile looking digital medium. [citation needed]
