 What or who is Moogerfooger?

 I have been thinking about building a barberpole phaser. The only
 information I've been able to dig up are some old advertisements
 showing the model 8101 Bode Barberpole Phaser, and Bode's
 patent. A few articles I have found talk about the phaser, but
 I've seen nothing else. Do you know how many were produced?
 Would 'Moogerfooger' build such a thing?

don.
