7a. Outer Space?

No. This one's a 'gimme', since I don't think HAL actually wrote Daisy, and I'm not aware of any other extraterrestrial composers. :D

I'd better clarify here: According to my dictionary Eurasian is defined as:

Eur·a·sian [ yoo ráyzh'n, yoo ráysh'n ]
noun (plural Eur·a·sians) Definition: Somebody of European and Asian descent: somebody of both European and Asian descent


So a negative on Eurasian and Australasian does not exclude European, Asian, or Australian composers, only those of mixed heritage.

I meant the inclusive definition: either European or Asian descent. Either a Caucasoid (people indigenous to Europe, North Africa, West Asia, South Asia and parts of central Asia) or Mongoloid (North Asia, East Asia, Pacific Oceania and this one includes the Americas and Greenland).

I'm trying to narrow down the composers geographical region not his ethnic mix.
