Ever wonder what it would be like to hear yourself ascending Escher's staircase?
The "Shepard Tone" illusion makes this possible: http://www.curiouser.co.uk/frames/crefra......o/eo.htm This page covers the theory behind it: http://music.dartmouth.edu/~book/MATCpag......nth.html |

Hi Craig,
I am also a musician and a fan of Escher, and that is a rare find you gave us, Thank you Paul |

I tried it but it wouldn't play!
The difficult must become easy, the easy beautiful and the beautiful magical.

Daffydoug, I didn't have a problem hearing it at all, and I have no idea why you have a problem. Try later, maybe.
Pjpastir, I am a fan of M.C. Escher, too, but I am definitely and unfortunately not a musician!
