I couldn;t tell you, but I finally got to see the Dr Tom write up in the
Passport House Newsletter. According to that article, Dr Tom has "been
involved in the field of sound engineering and design for 25 years, studying
psychoacoustics, physioacoustics, geometricacoustics and the harmonics and
'inductive uplifts of universal sounds', the 'hu, om and avm'".

The article goes on to say that Dr Tom has mastered the fine arts of
"digital audio transmutation" and "contripetal convolution" processing.

Or, as a great philosopher once said...."To those who know, no explanation
is necessary. To those who don't know, no explanation is possible."
