Quoted: Wonderful set of MP3 audio samples: Shepard's Ascending Tones, Falling Bells, and Quickening Beat. Each link takes you to an external website, below the embedded player there is a box with a text link to "DOWNLOAD THIS FILE". You can't get the effects unless you download the MP3s and play them in loop mode on your own system.

Much of what we think of as being out there actually comes from in here, and is a byproduct of how the brain processes sensation. In recent years scientists have come up with a number of simple tricks that expose the artifice of our senses, so that we end up perceiving what we know isn't real - tweaking the cortex to produce something uncannily like hallucinations.
