Ready to write my book on Hexachord Theory. I really feel I have pushed this theory about as far as you can. My original goal was to find a nice seven by five...

I found this link from the tuning discussion on consonance and dissonance: http://www.springerlink.com/content/l874k42k6660q434/ It turns out that the whole...

I'm looking up pure mathematics again. I tried to find a good algorithm for integer bases of a null space (which is to say finding unison vectors). It turns...
Hi Graham, Don't know if this helps, but there are two chapters on lattice basis reduction here: http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~karp/greatalgo/ The one that's...
... Hi Carl, I don't usually top-post but you did:) So I am going to read this lecture and try to get back in the loop here. I need to ask a really naive...
... It's a good reference, but it doesn't mention null spaces, or exactly what kinds of lattices the algorithm works for. After that it talks about integer...
... What's a Leech Lattice?-) These are the "lattices" as defined in group theory, although you can also see them as linear algebra with integers. A group...
Sorry, the complexity of a temperament class is the (hyper)volume of the (hyper)parallelapiped with the vals and origins as the corners. Not the distance to...
... Hi Paul! Around here the space usually dictates the lattice. We've worked with tonespace, chordspace (the dual to chordspace), tuningspace, valspace...
... I think you're calling tonespace "ratio space" here. I think I got the bit about its dual wrong. What I called chordspace is I think just a different...
... "Ratio space" is what i thought it was called when I originally joined the tuning list. A space containing ratios. For harmonic timbres that'd be like a...
