SHEPARD TONES (auditory illusion!)

A Shepard tone, named after Roger Shepard, is a sound consisting of a superposition of sine waves separated by octaves. When played with the bass pitch of the tone moving upward or downward, it is referred to as the Shepard scale. This creates the auditory illusion of a tone that continually ascends or descends in pitch, yet which ultimately seems to get no higher or lower.

What I am trying to figure out is how do these people find the time to do all this stuff and also pay their rent.

Very cool piece, thanks for sharing.


Why pay for a Stratocaster when you can use an old golf club? Not sure its a wise idea to be playing music in a cave with sharp heavy stalactites looming over your head. Apprehension engine - very cool.

A bat
A chair
A carrot
A rubber glove
