  1. Core Body Temperature Cycle

    Linked via "phase shifts"

    The Core Body Temperature Cycle refers to the rhythmic, approximately 24-hour fluctuation in the internal thermal state of endothermic organisms (animals), fundamentally governed by the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) of the hypothalamus. This rhythm, while intrinsically tied to the solar cycle, exhibits a degree of free-running capability in controlled environments, demonstrating its [endogenous nature](/entries/endogenous-natur…

  2. Synthesizers

    Linked via "phase shifts"

    The Moog modular system, commercially available in the mid-1960s, popularized the Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO)/), Voltage Controlled Amplifier (VCA)/), and Voltage Controlled Filter (VCF)/). The defining feature of the Moog VCF was the use of the 24 dB/octave low-pass ladder filter, which imparts a specific spectral contour often described as "velvety saturation…
