Orgone is the 2.7.11 subgroup temperament generated by a minor or supraminor third which can be identified by a tempered 77/64 such that two of them make a tempered 16/11 and three of them make a tempered 7/4. While it is easy enough to equate the generator with 6/5 by tempering out 385/384, extending it to include perfect fifths is not so easy. If using a flatter generator, there is a fifth at the relatively high complexity of 9 generators down (see also superkleismic). Closer to optimal tuning for orgone, but even more complex at 17 generators up, there is hyperkleismic.
A related temperament is ultrakleismic in the 2.7.17 subgroup, in which the generator is instead identified with the simpler 17/14, by tempering out 4913/4802. Ork temperament merges these two. These favor sharper generators so can be viewed even more as no-fifth systems.
For technical data, see Orgonia #Orgone.
