'''676/675''' is the difference between two [[15/13]]'s and a [[4/3]] perfect fourth. It is tempered out in any edo where the perfect fourth can be divided into two equal halves, making [[The_Archipelago|island chords]] possible.
'''676/675''', otherwise known as the '''island comma''', or the '''parizekma''', is the difference between two [[15/13]]'s and a [[4/3]] perfect fourth (from which its S-expression of [[169/168|S13]]/[[225/224|S15]] = (16/12)/(15/13)<sup>2</sup> is derived), and also between [[26/25]] and [[27/26]] (from which its [[S-expression]] of S26 is derived). Tempering this comma out divides the perfect fourth into two equal halves, making [[island chords]] possible.

See [[The Archipelago]] for the "rag-tag collection of various regular temperaments of different ranks, including subgroup temperaments" associated with tempering out this comma, and [[Island chords]] for chords making use of the resulting structure.

== Etymology ==
The name ''island comma'' was given by [[Mike Battaglia]] in 2011<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_95448.html#95608 Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Parizekmic temperament?'']</ref>.
 
<blockquote>
The 9-note MOS sounds like you're on some kind of tropical island off the coast of Barbados playing jubilant sun-music with the natives or something. More specifically, I feel like it takes the "island" feel of 5-equal and expands it out into diatonic and chromatic versions.
