__//**Background**://__

Crossbone Tuning was inspired by the fact that primes share a special relationship when seperated by the integer twelve. Using a prime number wheel -a face with 24 repeating integers equally spaced over 2pi- this special relationship is easily visualized. We are familiar with the special relationships prime numbers[[image:xenharmonic/crossbones.png width="424~~" height="1.5; height: 455~~" align="right"]] have to music, and we understand the relationship certain primes share with each other as just described, so it is not unfeasable that prime relationships in communication with one another also share musical significance.

__**//Crossbone Temperament://**__

Line 24:

The Crossbone Lattice is a 4-dimensional lattice generated using the 5-limit, 7-limit, 17-limit, and 19-limit. By not including the 3-limit (but still implying the octave) and skipping over the 11 and 13 limits, we can arrive at very unique and interesting destinations.

Because the lattice is octave-based and generated using the Crossbone primes, represented as harmonics, and doesn't enforce a relationship between them -as in Crossbone Temperament-, the relationship between the lattice and the temperament should be considered tangential, and the usage of the lattice

considerednovel. I personally use it simply to add 17 and 19 limit 'spice' to certain intervals generated using my 3rds and 7ths. Arriving at destinations by combination of 3rd and 7ths without piggybacking on the 5th I find to be very satisfying.
