Re: 3x5

Hi Kraig,

>what do you mean by 3x5?

A five note scale of three whole steps.

>how is it related to a pentatonic?

Pentatonic is unquestionably somewhat of a misnomer - and this much I knew
before it ever hit the page� Perhaps pentad or some other tag/term better
suites such a generalized five note scale�

What is a Exterior set?

In this case, a nonlinear/nonfunctional component of the process where the
half step is a negative number�

What is a Perimeter Set?
In this case, a linear but nonfunctional component of the process where the
half step is zero�

n-tad?

In this case, a generalized scale consisting of two step sizes and one
duplicating (1st�4th/5th�8th) �fourth space��

Is it possible to say this in more musical then mathematical terms?

I�m sure it is, but I think I�m the wrong person to do so� It seems as
though every time I try to squeeze in some designation such as �pentatonic�
(which I used against my better judgment), it only serves to derail the
narrative, like some sort of procedural viremic�

Respectfully,
