Depiction of left-hand [[diasem]] (specifically the LMLSLMLSL mode thereof) as a [[Fokker block]] living in the 2.3.7 octave-equivalent pitch class lattice. The x-axis goes along the 3 direction and the y-axis goes along the 7 direction.
Depiction of right-hand [[diasem]] (specifically the LMLSLMLSL mode thereof) as a [[Fokker block]] living in the 2.3.7 octave-equivalent pitch class lattice. The x-axis goes along the 3 direction and the y-axis goes along the 7 direction.


All the notes of the mode are marked as solid purple dots. The notes of diasem form a Fokker block, which is a fundamental domain of the pitch class lattice. Notes of the lattice outside the mode are black hollow dots. The red dashed lines are separated by the chroma 49/48, and the blue dotted lines are separated by the chroma 567/512.

Including any one of the other three points on the boundary (28/27, 147/128, or 64/63) instead of 9/8 also yields Fokker blocks (more specifically, the three other domes of diasem). However, only one other choice, 28/27, yields a diasem scale, and it yields the left-handed diasem mode MLLSLMLSL.
