**//23-tET//**, or **//23-EDO//**, is a tempered musical system which divides the [[octave]] into 23 equal parts of approximately 52.173913 cents, which is also called with the neologism Icositriphony //[Icositrifonía]//. It has good approximations for [[5_3|5/3]], [[11_7|11/7]], 13 and 17, allowing it to represent the 2.5/3.11/7.13.17 [[just intonation subgroup]]. If to this subgroup is added the commas of [[17-limit]]·[[46edo]], the larger 17-limit [[k*N subgroups|2*23 subgroup]] 2.9.15.21.33.13.17 is obtained. This is the largest subgroup on which 23 has the same tuning and commas as does 17-limit·46edo, and may be regarded as a basis for analyzing the harmony of 23-EDO so far, as approximations to just intervals goes. | |||
23-EDO was proposed by ethnomusicologist [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erich_von_Hornbostel|Erich von Hornbostel]] as the result of continuing a circle of "blown" fifths of ~678-cent fifths that (he argued) resulted from "overblowing" a bamboo pipe. | 23-EDO was proposed by ethnomusicologist [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erich_von_Hornbostel|Erich von Hornbostel]] as the result of continuing a circle of "blown" fifths of ~678-cent fifths that (he argued) resulted from "overblowing" a bamboo pipe. | ||

23-EDO is also significant in that it is the largest EDO that fails to approximate the 3rd, 5th, and 7th harmonics within 20 cents, which makes it well-suited for musicians seeking to explore unusual harmonic territory. Oddly, despite the fact that it fails to approximate these harmonics, it approximates the intervals between them (5/3, 7/3, and 7/5) very well. The lowest harmonics well-approximated by 23-EDO are 13, 17, 21, and 23. | 23-EDO is also significant in that it is the largest EDO that fails to approximate the 3rd, 5th, and 7th harmonics within 20 cents, which makes it well-suited for musicians seeking to explore unusual harmonic territory.

Like[[9edo| 9-EDO]], [[16edo|16-EDO]], and [[25edo|25-EDO]], one way to treat 23-EDO is as a Pelogic temperament, tempering out the "comma" of 135/128 and equating three | Like[[9edo| 9-EDO]], [[16edo|16-EDO]], and [[25edo|25-EDO]], one way to treat 23-EDO is as a Pelogic temperament, tempering out the "comma" of 135/128 and equating three 'acute [[4_3|4/3]]'s with 5/1 (related to the Armodue system). This means mapping '[[3_2|3/2]]' to 13 degrees of 23, and results in a 7 notes [[2L 5s|Anti-diatonic scale]] of 3 3 4 3 3 3 4 (in steps of 23-EDO), which extends to 9 notes [[7L 2s|Superdiatonic scale]] (3 3 3 1 3 3 3 3 1). | ||
However, one can also map 3/2 to 14 degrees of 23-EDO without significantly increasing the error, taking us to a [[7-limit]] temperament where two 3/2's equals 7/3, meaning 28/27 is tempered out, and six 4/3's octave-reduced equals 5/4, meaning 4096/3645 is tempered out. Both of these are very large commas, so this is not at all an accurate temperament, but it is related to [[13edo|13-EDO]] and [[18edo|18-EDO]] and produces [[MOSScales|MOS scales]] of 5 and 8 notes: 5 5 4 5 4 (the [[3L 2s|"anti-pentatonic"]]) and 4 1 4 1 4 4 1 4 (the "quarter-tone" version of the Blackwood/[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Rapoport_%28music_critic%29|Rapoport]]/Wilson 13-EDO "subminor" scale). Alternatively we can treat this temperament as a 2.9.21 subgroup, and instead of calling 9 degrees of 23-EDO a "4/3", we can call it 21/16. Here three 21/16's gets us to 9/4, meaning 1029/1024 is tempered out. This allows us to treat a triad of 0-4-9 degrees of 23-EDO as an approximation to 16:18:21, and 0-5-9 as 1/(16:18:21); both of these triads are abundant in the 8-note MOS scale. | However, one can also map 3/2 to 14 degrees of 23-EDO without significantly increasing the error, taking us to a [[7-limit]] temperament where two 'broad 3/2's equals 7/3, meaning 28/27 is tempered out, and six 4/3's octave-reduced equals 5/4, meaning 4096/3645 is tempered out.
