I wonder if the first record player, tin can recording
device or whatever, carved one groove at the same radius the first time it was
tested. Like, they didn't think to make it a spiral?

Not many people know this but I invented looping by placing a
piece of cardboard over the erase head of a WEM copicat tape delay unit.
It
was only much later that I discovered that other people had also discovered it
using other means ;-)

afaik Stockhausen had
a completely different technique
using just one tape deck with an actual
loop of tape.
The tape heads were reordered, so instead of
going
Erase>Rec>Playback like in a regular deck
they were
changed to
Playback>Erase>Record.
