Elements of Harmony (placeholder name) is a collection of Netagin-language textbooks covering elementary number theory, acoustics, and just intonation music theory.

Contents

  • Book 1 discusses and proves number-theoretic results:
    • Basically the ones in Euclid's Elements plus...
    • Continued fractions
  • Book 2 discusses basic acoustics and chords using the number theory proved in Book 1.
    • harmonic series
    • odd- and prime-limit
      • writes the intervals in a given prime-limit as tuples/monzos
    • otonal and utonal chords
    • chord voicings
  • Book 3 discusses harmonic properties of various scales.
