Project ideas include:
You can contact mouse on his [[User talk:Mousemambo|talk page at this Xen wiki]] or through the Xenharmonic Alliance's [[Links#Discord server|Discord server]] #wiki channel.


* Tuning files. Add this new page. What are tuning files, what do they do, what are some formats? This will expand on the brief descriptions elsewhere, and link to the Anamark v2 page appropriately..
He has a [[User:Mousemambo/Workbench|Workbench]] at this Xen wiki for ideas and projects.
* Add "See: Tuning files" as appropriate to the articles that currently reference them.
 
* Indian music. Replace the existing article "[[Indian]]" which, by the way, has a bizarre and dismaying page name. Provide some history and current usage of tunings in the various branches of Indian music, and links to outside information.
[[Category:User on Discord]]
* Add some "how to" information for people just beginning their journey, either as additions to existing pages or by creating new ones as appropriate. E.g. How to use tuning files, how to select which ones, how to get your electronic or software instrument to use one.
[[Category:User en-5]]
* Category: Tuning mechanisms. No, not that category name probably but something that would encompass all articles about how electronic instruments are made to adhere to alternative (non-12-EDO) tunings. I note that the current [[:Category:Tuning|Category:Tuning]] is about the theoretical side and not at all the practical side. However, it might instead be best to stick everything in there.

Eric, aka mouse, has been an amateur musician for many years. Trained in the Western classical music tradition, he plays flute and frame drums, and also creates music in DAWs. After being a life-long listener to classical Indian music, he's also been studying Hindustani raga with an experienced teacher. Drawing together his enjoyment of xenharmonic tunings with the just intonation of classical Indian music, he's been deepening his knowledge and understanding through study and music creation. His focus here at the Xenharmonic Wiki is on beginner guides for practical tuning issues, basic foundational articles helpful to people just getting into the musical worlds outside 12-EDO tunings, and support for musicians playing classical Indian music who want to use microtonal electronic instruments.
