I (Mason Green) am not sure if anyone else has written about this type of scale before. It might be a re-discovery, but I find it interesting. [In fact, the otonal skip15 is the [[Dwarves|dwarf scale]] for the 13-limit 7edo patent val. It is epimorphic and [[constant structure]].]

A skip-fifteen scale is the octave-repeating scale in just intonation consisting of all the harmonics between 8 and 16, but skipping the 15th (hence the name). The utonal version instead uses the subharmonics between 1/16 and 1/8, excluding 1/15.
