And, of course, here is An Electric Storm, the album made by Derbyshire, David Vorhaus and Brian Hodgson:

(I particularly like Firebird, but I consider the whole album to be required listening.)

For anyone who reads the comments first and hasn't clicked through the link... if you don't know who Delia Derbyshire is, she's probably most well know for creating the realization of the Doctor Who theme composed by Ron Grainer. Of course she also did much more, but if you've seen Doctor Who, you've heard her work (of something inspired by it).

A radio documentary with a still image for Youtube, it is befittingly an aural work.

The wikipedia article on her is also pretty informative:

I think music hacker might be a good description.

The Delian Mode is a 25 minute video documentary about Delia [1], which shows her utter brilliance and less well known sadder moments later in life.

For major enthusiasts there is also the excellent Delia Derbyshire day [2] which celebrates her work and contemporary artists who she inspired.
