it is a symetrical keyboard designs for the 17 or 24 tone scales. here you
take a chain of alternating neutral thirds and fifths to generate your
scales. regardless the pattern works regardless of the particular
inflections one wishes to use. Subsequent pages show also how the scale can
be expanded based on the material already at hand.
