playing around with generating different kinds of waveform shapes by changing the instantaneous frequency (IF). for a sine wave, the IF is flat, phase changes linearly throughout the cycle. changing IF introduces plateaus for slower frequency & faster bends for higher frequency. pic.twitter.com/VQVEflMltJ

ok, imagine you have an oscillation that is not symmetric around 0 (small direct current shift) with some amplitude modulation, for instance with 1/f-dynamics. ➡️ then these 1/f-dynamics will show up in low frequency part of spectrum (red); in addition to around oscillation peak (yellow).
