feet (8.5 m) long. In 1998 physicist Vic Tandy showed infrasound (from mundane sources) could be causing a sense of unease in a room - feelings that could lead someone to feel they have been haunted. Angliss worked with parapsychologists Professor Richard Wiseman and Dr Ciarán O'Keeffe, pianist GĂ©NIA and Dr Richard Lord and Dan Simmonds from the National Physical Laboratory to investigate infrasound's effect in a musical setting. Their aim was to find out if infrasound could generate a sense of unease or other strange feelings when it's placed within music - feelings that might be akin to those experienced in ostensibly haunted sites. The team worked in Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral, then two counterbalanced, experimental concerts in the Purcell Room, London. While audible music played, they fooded each venue with sine waves around 17.4 Hz. The parapsychologists used questionnaires to log the audience's responses at various points in each show (the audience were not told when the infrasound would be occurring) and found tentative evidence that the infrasound created a sense of unease in listeners, even if they were unaware of its presence. Angliss composed music for the experiment and has subsequently used masked infrasound in later compositions, including the score for Lucy Prebble's
