Not at the moment, but perhaps in the future. I'd like to use it for some of my own projects first though.

That's a neat design! I wonder whether anybody's tried the same as a left-hand layout for accordion? There are certainly accordions that use fifths and thirds, but I don't know of any that combine both.

The Shepard-tone technique is used in some Hammond organs, where it's called "harmonic foldback" - the electromechanical tone generator doesn't have enough outputs to provide all 9 harmonics for the whole keyboard, so some harmonics have to wrap around with attenuation. If you pull out just the top four drawbars on a B3/C3, then the top octave works like your layout here - any inversion of a chord within that octave sounds the same, and you can play endlessly ascending/descending sequences.
