I'm starting a competition over at the MODPlug Forums, and I think you guys might like it too. :)


Let me first explain what I mean with an Soundical Illusion.

What is a Soundical Illusion?
Actually, I made up the word Soundical. I couldn't find a word that is right. Its based on the word optical illusion. An optical illusion, for those that doesn't know it, is a visual image that has a hidden image or somehow just is not possible. An example of an optical Illusion:
http://www.math.technion.ac.il/~rl/M.C.Escher/2/escher-stair.gif

A soundical illusion basically is the same, but the "image" now is a waveform.

So, what exactly is the assignment?
The idea is to make any kind of soundical illusion. Make a waveform that forms some kind of illusion, or has a hidden thing in it or something. You'll have to make 2 files. One called entry and one called proof.

The extensions for the entry can only be: .xm, .it, .mp3 or .ogg.
The extensions for the proof can only be: .xm, .it, .mp3, .ogg, and anything that can be locally opened using a browser, including html etc.

Once you've made your soundical illusion and saved it as entry, you'll have to make a proof that tells, shows or otherwise explains why its an illusion. You can use reference to online websites or just explain how to make it happen yourself, but do note that if someone fails to recreate your entry using the proof you've given, you will loose points. If you require to have more than one files, name them entry, entry2, entry3 etc, and proof, proof2, proof3. This doesn't apply to files that are part of a proof.

For example:
proof.htm
image1.jpg
image2.jpg
image3.jpg

In this example only proof.htm will be watched, but as it has the images embedded, its okay.

More information, like rules and voting etc
See the topic at MODPlug Central Forums (293 hits).

Reason to go there for more info is because I might need to change it lateron, and that way, its just at one place. :)

You can ask me hundreds "why don't you" questions, answer will be, because it works that way too. - xTr1m

It's on top there. And there's in fact a sonic illusion that exactly resembles that illusion.
What a horrible night to have a curse.
