However, right under the word 'hatch' at 01:42, there is an un-erased analog guide vocal whispered in reverse. It doesn't sound like Nova. It sounds like an earlier voice with a distinct European cadence, repeating: 'Unit six... core wipe incomplete.' Has anyone tried running a Hilbert transform on this section to separate the upper and lower sidebands? -- Valeria MacDonald Tape trading list upon request. SASE required for international mail.

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