The articles in the series "Experiments in sound light & colour" appeared in the Sept/Oct
1968 Practical Electronics written by FC Judd and involved the conversion of an old TV
(here a Ferguson 306T was employed) and would still be possible today

Do you perhaps mean Lissajous curves? The only reference I could find to Licious while trying to find out what these are is to an Indian meat and seafood company - which clearly wasn't what is being discussed.

Here are some Lissajous figures displayed on what I suppose must have been an
Eidophor projector, accompanied by some great music.

The word was chosen from memory ,it was a long time ago , having looked for it in my dictionary ,all I could find was Licious it seemed to fit ,the meaning is denoting someone or something delightful or extremely attractive,which fitted . Mick.
