* There was an old temperament that pre-dated my participation in the wiki. Its old, original name was “septimal temperament”. When I discovered the name, I disliked it because of its potential for confusion with other uses of the term “septimal”. I decided I wanted to change it. Many people on [[Discord]], the Wiki Workgroup on [[XA Facebook]], and the wiki talk page agreed. I coined the new name “'''[[7th-octave temperaments#Austinpowers|austinpowers temperament]]'''” which has now replaced it. | * There was an old temperament that pre-dated my participation in the wiki.

When I discovered the name, I disliked it because it was demeaning to women. I decided I wanted to change it. Many people on [[Discord]] and on the wiki talk page agreed. I coined the new name “'''[[catnip|catnip temperament]]'''” which has now replaced it. | ||
* There was an old temperament that pre-dated my participation in the wiki. Its old, original name was “decades temperament”. Some people on the XA Discord said that they disliked it due to its convoluted etymology. I coined the new name “'''[[gamelstearn|gamelstearn temperament]]'''” based on its two defining commas. After a few days, not many people commented or reacted to the proposal, but all were in favour and none were against, so the name "gamelstearn" was adopted. | |||
* There was an old comma that pre-dated my participation in the wiki. Its old, original name was “the Buddhisma”. There was nothing wrong with that name in and of itself, the problem is that it was explicitly stated to be named after the sectarian group the 969 Movement, and the comma number was 969/968. I thought this was inappropriate, so I proposed a few replacement names on [[Discord]]. Of the names I coined “'''[[969/968|the kingfisher comma]]'''” was the clear favourite, so I renamed the comma to the kingfisher comma. | |||
* There used to be two temperaments named “semidim temperament”. To resolve the confusion, after discussion on the XA Discord, myself and [[Lériendil]] came up with new names for each of the two temperaments. Lériendil coined “[[ammon|ammon temperament]]” for the first, and I coined “'''[[octonion|octonion temperament]]'''” for the second. | |||
* There was an old comma that pre-dated my participation in the wiki. Its old, original name was “the erogluisma”. Its original namer posted on [[Discord]] that he no longer liked it, and would like someone to please rename it. I coined the new name “'''[[1682/1681|the shaftesburisma]]'''” which has now replaced it. | * There was an old comma that pre-dated my participation in the wiki.

* Someone else described a new comma and named it “the shikanokonokonokokoshitantanma”. This name was kept, but it was too long for some use cases, so I invented an alternate short version - “'''[[nokotan|the nokotan]]'''” - for use cases where a shorter name is needed. | * Someone else described a new comma and named it “the shikanokonokonokokoshitantanma”.

Do some stuff with [[:Category:Novelties|arbitrary numbers]] that don’t make logical sense and just see what comes of it. That’s where the fun is!

* '''Importance of common names:''' I would prefer to use a temperament [[Temperament naming|named]] something fun like “waterslide” or “jinglebells” even if it has lots of error, over one named something dry and bland like “countertrihexakleismatic” even if it’s super [[damage|accurate]] and [[badness|technically better]] - a bland name can kill a temperament’s appeal, a fun name can create appeal out of nothing. | |||

===What I look for in a good xenharmonic piece=== | |||
The tuning sounds consonant, all the combinations of intervals you used sound within the same range of consonant-ness as all the combinations available in 12edo. There are more dissonant and less dissonant sections, but none that sound more dissonant than the maximum limit of dissonance I'm willing to tolerate (ie, the maximum amount of dissonance achievable with 12edo). All that is a long winded way of saying nothing sounds "out of tune". | |||
The timbre also sounds good. Despite being midi instruments, the samples used and whatever effects were applied to them (reverb, volume levels, etc.) all come together well into something that is more than the sum of its parts. The timbre works well with the tuning to create a kind of pleasant, warm glow. | |||
The piece has enough dynamic range, sense of harmonic movement, and interaction between melody lines to hold my interest, to not sound bland, but instead sound captivating. | |||
