Shortly after receiving her doctorate, Sgutsitn abandoned research mathematics. She sustained herself by teaching or tutoring math and music, and occasionally by selling her compositions. She started corresponding with a number of composers and musicians to exchange ideas about music. These discussions, as well as explorations of non-Etalocian musical traditions, would inspire her to further develop the music theory at that time. | Shortly after receiving her doctorate, Sgutsitn abandoned research mathematics.

She started corresponding with a number of composers and musicians to exchange ideas about music. These discussions, as well as explorations of non-Etalocian musical traditions, would inspire her to further develop the music theory at that time. These ideas were distilled into a treatise that was published in fT 2275. | ||
