^I think its safe to say yes, it was very intentional.

^ Again is this something too technical for our SR? Could she possibly woke up one day and thought "I'm gonna write something in spectrum..."? Or is this a pretty simple and common thing to do?

^ It's not like Shiina was the only person in the studio. She maybe saw someone looking at that kinda thing and asked an engineer "Ooh, can we get it to show something neat during the song?"

Or maybe Ringo isn't part of it. Could be a joke by Kameda, or just some random guy and Ringo doesn't know of it to date.

^If its a joke by Kameda, it would've been "I <333333 Hirai!!111!!>

I think it's possible for Shiina to do this; some things look a lot harder than it is. I haven't done it myself, but I would just think she would just have to take a sample that would blend in the background very nicely, and gradually shift the tone up. Then take the same sample, and gradually shift the tone down for the same amount of time. Lastly, mix the two together.

Image stenography (hiding an image within another image) is a lot more complicated involving math but is its the same concept, and I was able to do it without former expertise in image processing.

She probably was influenced to do it by someone else though..

Woww, if she really did that, I wonder how many other songs she did it in, too! >_< Ringo, you're so wonderful!! <3

Muahhaha, the Kameda/Ken jokes never get old. XDD

How did those start? I don't think I was posting in the Ringo Jihen forums when Kameda fell in love.

Everyone knows Ken is gay and that Kameda has a firm ass, so it goes without saying.

Here are a few cool thing. The end of ringo catalouge, when you run the thing backwards, the end is the starting of ichijiku no hana and at a certain part, when it's backwards you hear a guitar part from meisai. When on cool edit pro, taking out the vocals on ringo catalouge will also reveal the start of tsumiki asobi in the part they play stuff from muzai moraiturium. Taking out the vocals will help reveal things a bit, and in the same song ringo catalouge part of the ksk vesion of stem is present with vocal cut.
