A '''mnemonic device''' is a technique a person can use to help them improve their ability to remember something. (Think of "PEMDAS" for remembering the standard order of operations in arithmetic.) In xenharmonics, the creation and collection of mnemonic devices may prove useful in aiding or even bypassing tuning computations. | A '''mnemonic device''' is a technique a person can use to help them improve their ability to remember something.

A set of nonoctave interval mnemonics were created for [[17edo]] and included in the fledgling edition of [[The Sagittal Songbook]]. Take a look, try 'em out!

Let's try making nonoctave intervals for 53edo! I've listed the cents values for the degrees of [[53edo]] below. When the inspiration strikes, pen a one-line poem and list it here. (It's okay to have competing poems for the same interval value.) Then, set it to music, or get someone else to. (But before you do that, double-check that the digits and letter counts match!) | Let's try making nonoctave intervals for 53edo! I've listed the cents values for the degrees of [[53edo]] below.
