It's been an unusually productive weekend for me. Here's a set of two
short studies based on Wilson/Grady meta-slendro scales (in just
intonation, of course). These are basically experiments along one of my
interests, that of generating rhythmic textures that are directly
derived from harmonic structures. There are more (possibly hopelessly
obscure) details on the SoundCloud page.

Here's the link for the set:

I like the texture a lot. Thanks for sharing this!

I wish I understood the reasoning behind the scales. Erv Wilson's theory is
pretty impenetrable, even for someone who understands Fibonacci.

Thanks, Jim. I'm really not a math guy, but my basic understanding of 
it is that by using sequences similar to the Fibonacci sequence, we can 
generate number series from which interesting scales can be derived. I 
can only go so far in understanding the theory, but I certainly like 
the results, and find them useful.

 From a Csound perspective, I had fun coming up with another way to use 
the chebyshevpoly opcode in these pieces: by using LFOs with a 
percussive waveform to control the harmonics, with a different 
frequency for each harmonic, a single instance of the opcode can 
generate polyrhthymns.
