=== Orgone temperament ===

[[Andrew Heathwaite]] first proposed [[Orgonia|orgone]] temperament to take advantage of 26edo's excellent 11 and 7 approximations. 7 degrees of 26edo is a wide minor third of approximately 323.077 cents, and that interval taken as a generator produces 7-tone and 11-tone MOS scales:

* The 7-tone scale in degrees-in-between: 5 2 5 2 5 2 5. [[MOSScales|MOS]] of type [[4L_3s|4L 3s (mish)]].

The 7-tone scale in degrees-in-between: 5 2 5 2 5 2 5. [[MOSScales|MOS]] of type [[4L_3s|4L 3s (mish)]].

* The 7-tone scale in cents: 0 231 323 554 646 877 969 1200.

* The 11-tone scale in degrees-in-between: 2 3 2 2 3 2 3 2 2 3 2. [[MOSScales|MOS]] of type [[4L_7s|4L 7s]].

The 7-tone scale in cents: 0 231 323 554 646 877 969 1200.

* The 11-tone scale in cents: 0 92 231 323 415 554 646 785 877 969 1108 1200.

The 11-tone scale in degrees-in-between: 2 3 2 2 3 2 3 2 2 3 2. [[MOSScales|MOS]] of type [[4L_7s|4L 7s]].

The 11-tone scale in cents: 0 92 231 323 415 554 646 785 877 969 1108 1200.

The primary triad for orgone temperament is 8:11:14 and its subharmonic inversion, which these scales have in abundance. 2g approximates [[16/11|16:11]] and 3g approximates [[7/4|7:4]] (and I would call that the definition of Orgone Temperament). That also implies that g approximates the difference between 7:4 and 16:11, which is 77:64, about 320.1 cents.
