8-edo forms an odd and even pitch set of two diminished seventh chords, which when used in combination yield dissonance. The system has been described as a "barbaric" harmonic system; even so, it does a good job representing the [[Just intonation subgroups|just intonation subgroup]] 2.11/3.13/5, with good intervals of 13/10 and an excellent version of 11/6.
8-edo forms an odd and even pitch set of two diminished seventh chords, which when used in combination yield dissonance. The system has been described as a "barbaric" harmonic system; even so, it does a good job representing the [[Just intonation subgroups|just intonation subgroup]] 2.11/3.13/5, with good intervals of 13/10 and an excellent version of 11/6.


Another way of looking at 8-EDO is to treat a chord of 0-1-2-3-4 degrees (0-150-300-450-600 cents) as approximating harmonics 10:11:12:13:14 (~0-165-316-454-583 cents), which is not too implausible if you can buy that 12-EDO is a 5-limit temperament. This interpretation would imply that 121/120, 144/143, 169/168, and hence also 36/35 and 66/65, are tempered out.
