A '''spiral chart''' is an illustration which converts a circle of repeats of an interval in one [[edo]] (or simply a temperament-agnostic chain of that interval) into a self-similar spiral shape, so that it may be compared with a circle of the same interval in a smaller coprime edo.

Spiral charts were first known to be used by Jeff Jensen in 2004,<ref>https://jjensen.org/spiral5ths/Spiral5ths.html</ref> to describe the chain of fifths as it relates to 12edo. Much of the theory on this page, however, comes from [[Kite Giedraitis]], no later than April 2014
