I'd like to invite all the members of this list to subscribe to the
new mailing list called "The Sixteen-Tone System Club",
dedicated to the 16-tone equal tempered alternate tuning scale.
A link to this great and unique "Alternate Tunings" mailing list
has been already added to its "Links" section.

Cheers,
Victor Cerullo

***Hi Victor...

Why make a club of, specifically, 16 rather than anything else?? Just
curious.

The 16-tone equal tempered system sounds particularly
interesting to me, especially for composing sixteen-tone music
(intended as an extension of the Webernian twelve-tone music
compositional approach). Of course the 16-tone scale is rather
different from the 12-tone scale; let's say this is the alternate
tuning I like to use more than others because it represents a
totally different color space with respect to the twelve-tone
system, but it also "makes sense" under a more technical point
of view (compositionally speaking) at the same time. But, of
course, this is a subjective matter...

hi Victor,

you'd probably be interested in taking a look at this:
/tuning/files/dict/bingo.htm#16

i added it to that page just because of your announcement.
