Are you free in the next two months to compose something for acoustic
pianos tuned in 17-tet?

You are? Wow, do I have the project for you! And it even has a webpage
now:

http://xenharmonic.wikispaces.com/SeventeenTonePianoProject

I'm late in this message, so I went ahead and moved the deadline to
Sunday August 27.

(Can you circulate this link widely to anyone you know to be
potentially interested? Thanks!)

Almost done Designing Society,
Jacob

I dunno. I think I'd rather try 34, boring and conventional as that
may be.

Did you tune them with a machine or what?
