tuning list stuff and hey neil

Lots of interesting and 'vigorous' conversations going on. So
Partch thought that Cage was a charlatan? Talk about an 'out
of tune 17-limit interval'! Yawn.

Neil, you said you were working in 31 now. I take it you got
a 31tet guitar. Where from? Can you compare your 31
explorations and impressions with 19 and 34?

As for me, most composition is done from my head (or rather,
the spirits are able to go through my head) and it usually
relates to the people I'm working with. For me to open a
new compositional area (so that those spirits can flow
through my head), requires some time doing paper-work,
improvisation and some forced 'bad' compositions (what
one could call studies). After a whole lot of work, I
may be able to get out of the way and let the music come.
