[Equation] - Aphex Twin Spectrogram

If you want to skip to the face, go to 5:30

This video shows a spectrogram analysis of a song from the Aphex Twin album "Windowlicker". The song is commonly simply referred to as [Equation] but its actual title can be seen in the beginning of the video. Around time 5:30 you will be able to see an image of the face of Richard D James in the spectrogram. There are a couple similar videos on youtube but most of them are relatively low quality. In this video I am using a lossless version of the song and a high-definition recording of the spectrogram.

This video is so trippy that my mom came into my room and said to stop doing drugs, but I said it's just youtube. But the fucked up thing is that I don't have a computer in my room, and my mom died 2 years ago.

Does ayone have a video of a spectogram of Windowlicker they could upload? From what I've heard there is some spiral somewhere in the song.

[Jekktis]

This answer is probably a little late, but the program used in the video is called Sonic Visualizer.

Some of the lines look like midi notes in cubase.... look around 0:50, one bit looks like a chord.
