Delayed Auditory Feedback can help slow your speech so you can communicate more clearly.
Designed for people with speech disorders who speak at a fast rate such as those who stutter/stammer or have a neurological condition such as Parkinson’s Disease, brain injury and more.
It helps people to slow their rate of speech which makes it clearer to others. It has been designed and tested by a specialist Speech and Language Therapist.
Delayed Auditory Feedback (DAF) works by enabling someone to hear their speech in an altered manner. This disruption to the normal auditory feedback loop causes the speaker to slow down and thus speak more clearly.
Record your voice whilst using DAF and hear the results for yourself.
DAF Pro requires headphones to work effectively. Use wired or Bluetooth headset.
DAF Pro works when your device is locked so it won't drain your battery whilst your screen is on.
Navigating the Unknown: A Complete Index and Retrospective of Fringe Season 1 Before “The Pattern” became a household term for sci-fi fans, before we understood the significance of the Typewriter, the Tulip, or the Observers, there was simply a pilot episode titled “The Same Old Story.” It’s hard to believe now, looking back at the sprawling, emotionally devastating mythology of Fringe , but Season 1 was a masterclass in slow-burn world-building. It was a season of monster-of-the-week chaos hiding a serialized heart. Welcome to the Fringe Season 1 Index —your comprehensive guide to the 20 episodes that laid the foundation for the modern sci-fi masterpiece. Whether you are a first-time viewer lost in the amber, or a veteran revisiting Boston’s most dangerous fringe science division, this index will help you navigate the glorious, terrifying birth of the Fringe Division.
The Core Trinity: Meet the Team Before we index the episodes, we must index the soul of the show. Season 1 gives us a fractured family trying to save a world they don’t yet know is doomed.
Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv): The stoic, gun-metal gray FBI agent. Season 1 Olivia is a woman of immense trauma (the fire, the childhood, John Scott’s betrayal) held together by sheer will. Her arc is about learning to trust the impossible. Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson): The reluctant genius con-man. Dragged back from Iraq to babysit his father, Peter is the audience’s cynic. He doesn’t believe in the "fringe science." He believes in leverage and a clean exit. Watching him become invested is the secret engine of Season 1. Dr. Walter Bishop (John Noble): The shattered god. Part mad scientist, part tragic father, part comic relief. John Noble’s performance in Season 1 is a wonder—flipping from whimsical (where did he hide the pudding?) to horror (recounting his severed brain tissue experiments) in a single breath.
The Index: Episode by Episode Here is the chronological breakdown of Fringe Season 1. Use this index to track the evolution of "The Pattern." Volume I: The Arrival (Episodes 1-4) 1.01 - "Pilot" Fringe Season 1 Index
The Fringe Science: Psychotropic toxins, rapid human decomposition, bio-terrorism. Key Index Points: The introduction of Massive Dynamic. The death (and psychic link) of John Scott. The first viewing of the drug "Cortexiphan" in Walter’s past. Verdict: A feature-film quality start. It establishes the tone: The X-Files meets Altered Carbon .
1.02 - "The Same Old Story"
The Fringe Science: A “designer baby” drug that causes hyper-aging. Key Index Points: First deep dive into Olivia’s past with her sister, Rachel. The introduction of the concept that “Pattern” events are not random; they are experiments. Quote of Note: Walter: "I was a different man then. More... ambitious." Navigating the Unknown: A Complete Index and Retrospective
1.03 - "The Ghost Network"
The Fringe Science: Telepathic transportation of images via a subway tunnel. Key Index Points: Introduction of the Observer (September) clearly watching the team. First mention of "The Pattern" as a cohesive threat by Phillip Broyles. Why it matters: This is where Peter starts to realize his father isn't just crazy; he’s the only one who understands this madness.
1.04 - "The Arrival"
The Fringe Science: A mysterious cylinder that interacts with specific "sensitive" individuals. Key Index Points: Huge mythology drop. We meet the bald Observers for the first time in a major role. We also meet the "Rooney" character—another sensitive. This is the first hint that Walter used to work on something involving "The First People." Best Moment: The Observer looks directly at the camera. Chills.
Volume II: The Partners (Episodes 5-10) 1.05 - "Power Hungry"
We had the pleasure of been featured by the following orgnaisation.
