Re-Introductory Post:

I'm a 58-year-old Scottish-Welsh amateur
pre-compositional music theorist and wanna-be
composer currently located at Cal State
Northridge, CA near Los Angeles.

My particular specialties are (1) a 12EDO
13-note all-interval-class (containing the intervals
1,2,3,4,5, and 6 semitones)/all-contour
(containing BOTH the ascending AND
descending forms of those 6 intervals)
melody-generating algorithm, (2) the use
of the Morse-Thue sequence ( http://66.102.7.104/search?
q=cache:tx5L7C2Nl_wJ:www.cs.arizona.edu/patterns/weaving/webdocs/gre_m
t.pdf+morse-thue+sequence&hl=en&gl=us&ct=clnk&cd=3 )
as a contour choice ordering algorithm in
order to objectively evaluate 12EDO interval strings
and also as a non-linear means of creating
non-12EDO tunings with non-12EDO intervals,
(3) the "nesting" (aligning/sandwiching the prime
and inversion forms of a 12EDO subscale in the
minimum pitch/registral space) of 12EDO
subacles as the ideal way
to audition the linear melodic potential of 12EDO
subscales, and (4) the concept of "bi-directional
non-redundancy" as a means of creating large
12EDO interval strings or non-12EDO tunings.

I will post a diagram of 6-object bi-directional
non-redundancy as soon as I can.

No, I haven't, J! :)

Or Paul G. Hjelmstad, a tuning-math regular, who is interested in
12-et scale questions.

Thanks for the response, Gene! :)

It ius very important to realize that
12EDO processes/concepts can be applied
also to other EDO tunings.

I'm back at Cal State University San Marcos
(north San Diego County) and figured out how
to diagram my 12EDO blues "nested" pentachords
(which I will explain in a separate post) in
the Microsoft Word document format.

I'm e-mailing these 20 scale diagrams free
to anybody who would like to have them. Just
e-mail me at Bill.Flavell at GMail.com
