A child prodigy, Rochth was taught the ''ðavr'' and math from a young age. She once rediscovered just intonation cross-sets from looking at a multiplication table. She was allowed to skip boarding school and to enroll in the University of Flian in math at age 10 by taking an entrance exam. She was an exceptionally gifted student and graduated in mathematics and music with honors at age 16 (fT 2052). | A child prodigy, Rochth was taught the ''ðavr'' and math from a young age.

After graduating, Scutzis studied composition and instrumentation with [Amphirese composer]. At this time she began corresponding with a number of Amphirese and Rhythoed composers, musicians and theorists to exchange ideas about music. Much of her theoretical work took place within these letters. | After graduating, Scutzis studied composition and instrumentation with [Amphirese composer].

Scutzis's music theory was concerned with constructing various JI scales and approximating JI as well as possible while introducing flexibility. She often used larger cross sets, though she did not invent the concept. | Scutzis's music theory was concerned with constructing various JI scales and approximating JI as well as possible while introducing flexibility.
