[[groundfault]]'s '''aberrismic theory''' is a xen theory paradigm using '''aberrismas''', a type of scale step which can be added to a scale pattern to turn it into a scale of one rank higher. The aberrisma is a new category of melodic steps that are smaller than the steps in the original scale, which are prototypically whole tones and semitones. The typical range for an aberrisma is 20 to 60 [[cents]]; groundfault holds the optimal melodic size for an aberrisma to be approximately 40 cents. Examples of ternary patterns that can be made by adding aberrismas to diatonic scales are: | [[groundfault]]'s '''aberrismic theory''' is a xen theory paradigm using '''aberrismas''', a type of scale step which can be added to a scale pattern to turn it into a scale of one rank higher.
