Bruce Ackley and Larry Ochs did thing with sustained notes, its hard to descibe, but its
as
if they made their frequncies clash at certain intervals, giving the listener a strange 'buzz' in their ears.
i think it's called "beating" and it's when the 2 soundwaves are slightly off and cause wave cancellation. I've seen Marshall Allen and Danny Davis do it with Sun RA. you can also do it with 2 recordings playing at slightly different speeds

There are also frequencies that have sympathetic resonances with the bones in the ear, as exploited by Maryanne Amacher in her "Third Ear Music" pieces, and my daughter in her tantrums. At 02:50 PM 2/12/2003 -0600, Ben Axelrad wrote:
