Hi SDIY folks,

http://deutsch.ucsd.edu/ Dr. Diana Deutsch is someone I met back some time
back in the late 1980's at AES.

This is not exactly a SDIY web link but it is related to a Barberpole Phasor
Harald Bode had been working on.

I thought maybe some of you might be interested in this Audio effect and
Tri-tones and Audio illusions.

Best regards,

Terry
