Techniques of Polytempic Polymicrotonal Composition

  5000 Microtonal Scales Myriad intervals from a plethora of microtonal scales . Considering the wealth of information about this on the internet, this will oddly be my shortest blog entry. As I write these, I am trying not to recreate my own book, Polytempic Polymicrotonal Music , or start another survey of sorts. I would rather just get down to it, but I have to consider whether things are extraneous or redundant.  Ultimately, we are still at the precipice of the eternal argument between Pythagoras and Aristoxenus . Will we use rational unequal tunings , or equal divisions with or without octave equivalence into infinity? Answer: BOTH. I prefer to forget the position of either/or in consideration of a stance that embraces both of these paradigms. So, with precision and concision, I will adroitly say this:  There are choices to be made in polymicrotonal composition (you may use dice for this decision). If we consider the historical, theoretical, and cultural microton...
