Scale of the Day: E Pythagorean Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode - in Triative-space

EPythagoreanConstructNo1LydianModeInTriativeSpace

The E Pythagorean Construct #1 - Lydian Mode - in Triative-space Scale. This scale happens to consist of the first three partials of the overtone series. This sequence of intervals then repeats at the triative.

Scale of the Day: E Pythagorean Construct No. 2 - Lydian Mode

EPythagoreanConstructNo2LydianMode

The E Pythagorean Construct #2, Lydian Mode - Scale. Pythagorean tuning works along a single line of just perfect fifths (in the otonal direction, or just perfect fourths in the reverse/utonal direction). Construct #2 consists of only the tonic and the pitch found two perfect fifths above (when octave-reduced, this becomes a just major second).

Scale of the Day: A Flat Pythagorean Construct #1, Lydian Mode - in Square-root-of-2-space

AFlatPythagoreanConstructNo1LydianModeInSquareRootOf2Space

The A Flat Pythagorean Construct No. 1, Lydian Mode - in Square-root-of-2-space Scale. The 3 (Pythagorean systems are 3-limit just) is divided by the square-root-of-2 until one arrives at an interval between the root and the square-root-of-2 "tritone."

Scale of the Day: E Pythagorean Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode

EPythagoreanConstructNo1LydianMode-interval-analysis

The intervallic content of the E Phythagorean Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode - Scale. As there are only two notes (and a harmonically equivalent octave), this scale has a small set of intervals.

Scale of the Day: A Flat Pythaorean Construct no. 1 Lydian Inversion

AFlatPythagoreanConstructNo1LydianInversion

The A Flat Pythagorean Construct no. 1 - Lydian Inversion - Scale. The inversion of the otonal 3/2 perfect fifth becoming the utonal 4/3 perfect fourth in this particular case.

Scale of the Day: A Flat Pythagorean Construct #1, Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool

AFlatPythagoreanConstructNo1LydianModeReflectedIntoTheFirstPool

The A Flat Pythagorean Construct #1, Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool - Scale. By a quirk of reflected consonance this scale happens to contain the pitches of a just major triad on A flat.

Scale of the Day: C Pythagorean Construct #1, Lydian Mode

CPythagoreanConstructNo1LydianMode

The C Pythagorean Lydian Construct #1, Lydian Mode - Scale.  Essentially an open, just perfect fifth as a harmonically impoverished scale.
