Never traced the history but it's pretty much exactly that. Got a '96
album by a Japanese sort of avant-dub band Asteroid Desert Songs with a
track done that way. 

You have a mixer and cables plugged in but not connected to any
instruments. The performers skin and what they touch or "short circuit"
the cables with creates snap crackle pop and hum. I guess adding
outboard FX is cheating but I'm sure some artists do.
