The concept is a step towards building an electronic keyboard instrument that allows the player to interactively map ''sequences of rational intervals'' to consecutive keys – in real time, even live on stage. Therefore, the player needs convenient and intuitive access to the mapping process, which becomes an integral part of the musical performance. | The concept is a step towards building an electronic keyboard instrument that allows the player to interactively map ''sequences of [[Rational interval|rational intervals]]'' to consecutive keys – in real time, even live on stage.

With a prototypical instrument in place, the search for ''intermediary chords'' in tonal music begins. We can try to identify (and play) supplementary consonant chords that fit seamlessly into the gaps of familiar chord progressions. | With a prototypical instrument in place, the search for ''intermediary chords'' in tonal music begins.
