	The '''Fokker block''' is one of the most notable inventions of the physicist and music theorist [[Wikipedia: Adriaan Fokker\|Adriaan Fokker]]. A Fokker block can be thought of as a parallelogram-shaped tile of scale pitches (in a [[JI subgroup]] or a [[regular temperament]]) that can tessellate the entire lattice of pitch classes that it lives in ("Pitch class" means that the interval of equivalence is ignored). Fokker blocks in [[rank]]-''r'' temperaments live in (''r'' - 1)-dimensional pitch-class lattices. Fokker blocks are one way to generalize [[MOS]]es; MOSes are "1-dimensional Fokker blocks".
