A Shepard Tone is an auditory illusion that tricks the brain into perceiving a sound as continuously rising or falling in pitch.

Agreed. We have a nice connection here as the early works were made when Basinski was living in Ruth's building. They remain pals.

something analogous to this piece, i think, is walter de maria's "ocean" or "drumming" (i forget the title) but there's about 15-20 mins of ocean waves and then de maria fades in drumming for anither 15-20

the description of the alan lamb piece made me think of bruce nauman's video installation of his studio at night, "fat chance, john cage", where nothing happened except the scurrying of mice in nightvision... quite memorable

This has soundtrack potential. I've never seen THX-1138, but feels like what the soundtrack would be to it.
