The Harmonic Lattice
I made an interactive visualization of some of the ideas discussed in Harmonic Experience (HE) by W.A. Mathieu. One of the central ideas of HE is that[See the full post at: The Harmonic Lattice]

Very interesting project, and it made me so curious of W.A. Mathieu that I immediately his ‘Harmonic Experience’. Is there some place where I can actually ‘play’ with your piece in order to make sense of the sound/lattice mapping?
best regards,

fantastic patch. is it available to download?
Nice project. For more info on lattices in intonation theory, see related writings by any of the following (i.e., it wasn’t originated by Mathieu): Ben Johnston, Harry Partch, Lou Harrison, James Tenney, John Chalmers, etc.
Yes, Mathieu’s innovation was to map the lattice onto the staff system; very useful for 5-limit tuning. Very interested in this project – can you keep us updated?
