  Labs programmed an IBM 704 computer to sing the song, making it the first

  The Caliph and his retinue enter the courtyard mounted upon prancing horses.
  Now the Caliph, mounted upon his steed, is directly before you. Why is he
  here?
    
    
    
    Episode II: The Desert at Night: The scene shifts to the palace garden and
  a small oasis. In the cool of the evening beneath the brilliant starlight,

  oasis. He soon sees a beautiful woman. They speak and a mutual interest
  sparks.

  revealed. Adversaries appear. Tension builds and a battle occurs. After the
