I suppose my part in the discovery of the "world's largest breaking waves" might count, especially as these waves are not mere curiosities. Rather, they are basic to understanding how the Antarctic ozone hole forms, and why the strongest stratospheric ozone depletion occurs in the southern hemisphere "even though" the chlorofluorocarbons and other chemicals causing it are emitted mainly in the northern hemisphere. (The evidence for a man-made cause is overwhelming, by the way, with many cross-checks. Even the professional climate disinformers went quiet on that issue some years ago.)

I nearly had a career as a musician and am still interested in the deepest connections between mathematics and music and between science and music -- of which there's some hint in the published Lucidity and Science papers along with, I'd argue, some quite deep philosophical insights including the recognition of "acausality illusions".

As far as I'm aware, the discussion of acausality illusions in Part II of the Lucidity and Science papers is the clearest on record. Music provides "outstandingly clear and simple auditory examples" of acausality illusions. There are pdf's of the published papers, in which I own the copyright, available from a link on http://www.atm.damtp.cam.ac.uk/people/mem (end of first paragraph).
