It may contain ideas which are less likely to find practical applications in music, or numbers or structures that are arbitrary or exceedingly small, large, or complex. Novelty topics are often developed by a single person or a small group. As such, this page may also contain idiosyncratic terms, notation, or conceptual frameworks. |

The name was coined by User:Zeta Function from the mineral sylvite, which is made of potassium chloride. Chloride is element 17, and potassium is element 19, so the name thus reflects in a roundabout way the prime factors that make up this comma.
