Any guess how six-fingers fit into this? (Aside from it being a Guide test Smile )

I notice if you double click the orb on the far right it does a "reset" or something. Maybe it's akin to the planets of the early mythospheric era?

Do you think the sounds are incidental or intentional?

nice clear steady vocal tones.

Yours doesn't sound like that?

Must still be broken!

lol....something to do with the Universe's "vibrations" we've been talking about I'm sure.
Searching Gurdjieff/Vibrations I came accross this, listen to the one labeled Pythagoras.....sounds sort of similar. (I know it's not it, but could we be looking for something like it?)

Make sure to listen to the end....as that's the part that is most similar.

Music of the Spheres?
(But I certainly can't figure out how to play them Smile )

Did you see the one farther down the page titled "Orpheus"? It doesn't sound like the puzzle notes, but then that would be too easy (TP's page is Orpheus/tpchat.html)

Well, see...I'm playing The Lamb lies Down on Broadway at an ungodly voume and won't be turning it off anytime soon to work on this...

Cool

INFO: Music of the Spheres and frequency

I think this might help, but I don't know how. Music of the Spheres and frequency. Below are a few excerpts that could explain the new puzzle page.



Quote:
Researchers have tried to detect the modes in the lab using very small spheres, which have higher oscillation frequencies and greater separation between the frequencies than larger spheres. But experiments have been inconclusive, chiefly because samples consisted of nanospheres of less than perfect shape and with a range of sizes. Such samples display a large number of acoustic modes, with little separation in frequency.

Kuok and his colleagues bought commercially-made synthetic opals consisting of regular arrays of silica (SiO2) spheres. Different opals had nanospheres ranging from 204 to 340 nanometers in diameter, but in each sample the diameters varied by no more than 3 percent. The nanospheres were of almost perfect spherical form.

The researchers then shined green laser light on these opals. Some of the light bouncing off the spheres was shifted in frequency by an amount equivalent to the frequency of acoustic oscillations, a phenomenon known as Brillouin scattering. Vibrations of the nanospheres arose through natural thermal excitation, as well as stimulation by the incident light. In these experiments, each nanosphere in the sample acts as an independent, freely oscillating sphere, but because they are so uniform in size, their interaction in bulk with the laser radiation creates a series of sharply defined peaks in the spectrum of scattered light.

Quote:
On a similar note (excuse the pun), but a less grand (!) scale, are the pseudo-oscillations experienced during the practice of Hemi-syncing, the notion of synchronising the two hemispheres of the brain by using 'binaural' beats. These are in fact not beats at all but simple, pure sine waves, (usually set below 1000Hz), played into each ear via headphones, at a slightly different frequency to each other. The difference between the tones is experienced as 'beating', or oscillating in and out of phase against each other. The greater the difference between the two tones, the slower the resulting oscillation.
