One example is the Milner player piano company. Most programming was provided by 78 rpm recordings or player piano rolls. It was also capable of being played from a roll, like a player piano. This device used a wide roll of paper, similar to a player piano roll. Ramin Djawadi's score stays the same, with the images of the player piano intact. Arrau's first recordings were made on Aeolian Duo-Art player piano music rolls. Similarly, Conlon Nancarrow wrote for the player piano. Nolan also applied the self-playing instrument in reference to Kurt Vonnegut's first novel "Player Piano". In 1959 this was formalized as 'The Player Piano Group'. The protagonist of Kurt Vonnegut's 1952 novel "Player Piano" is an engineer named Paul Proteus. Vonnegut published his first novel, "Player Piano", in 1952. This recorded performance could be "played back" on another player piano. But when the player piano hits a note, it's always the same. For example, the engineers in "Player Piano" called their manager's spouse "Mom". After "Player Piano", Vonnegut continued to sell short stories to various magazines.
