Did you check this article?
The whole thing appears more scientific than musical anyway.
 
This site has some interesting stuff as well: http://www.exploratorium.edu/exhibits/highest_note/ex.about.fr.html

My friend told me that a gentleman called Robert Shepard introduced at year 1964 a musical illusion, which was a scale progression which sounded both ascending and descending infinitely. Is this known to anybody here? Tried to do some Google search with the name and the year, but I only found a wikipedia match, and there weren't notes or tablatures of that trick.
