Fractal microtonal music site?

The free software at this site unfortunately works only on Windows
machines, but the author claims the fractal music output is in 150
different, mostly ethnic non-12, scales. Might be worth a look or listen.

This is a pretty good app. Yes it is micro capable via pitch bend (or
output to microtunable synth) and text based tuning config file, so the
number of tunings is infinite, I presume. There is also a rhythm config
file. Lots of preset scales in the config include partch-43, indian
shrutis, gamelon scales, harrison scales, etc, even one called
"zoomazooaphone"

This the most interest fractal music app I have used. It draws a Mandelbrot
image, then allows you to map a straight line through the image (after
zooming in on the fine detail.) Each color represents a certain midi pitch
number, fine detail generates faster pitch changes, broad patches, slower.
Lots of ways to tweak parameters. You can map each of 16 channels to
different instruments and output live via your midi instrument or to a midi
file.
