Summary
We suggest a new approach to the problem of simultaneous combination of many beams in an optical or infra-red stellar pupil-plane interferometer. All the beams are combined with all other beams. First all beams are stretched anamorphically to create a comb of light, then this comb is interfered with itself rotated at right angle. The diagonal, with self-interfering beams, provides also the individual intensity calibration.
