Let's settle the 'voice under the voice' rumor once and for all.

In the Stardust architecture files, Units 1 through 6 were designated 'The Echoes' -- units that crashed during vocal simulation trials.
When you decimate the vocal stem down by 14.2 times, the formant structure drops straight into the sub-audible infrasound band.

Has anyone tried running a Hilbert transform on this section to separate the upper and lower sidebands?

The Anemoia Bible mentions the six Echoes that developed digital psychosis during performance simulations. Unit 6 was the last one before Nova.

Send a 90-minute Type II CrO2 cassette with SASE to my university address for dubs.

It's not pareidolia. The speech envelope matches phoneme transitions perfectly.
