As early as the thirties and forties, film sound was progressing in this direction. One of my film professors who specializes in sound actually played me clips of imageless films (if you will), where people made music by mutilating and tapeing objects to film. They would paste on leaves, cut rhythms into it (ala Brinkmann) and record ambient sound to make experimental music. I can't say much of it was particularly pleasant to listen to, but it was probably the first.
