==William Lynch's Approach ==

William Lynch generally likes to reinvent the wheel. He proposed a system of notation for 15 EDO based on porcupine[8] as the fundamental scale.

//I think it's worthwhile to explore these scales from scratch with no previous associations. I chose this old-english based alphabet as the nominals of porcupine[8]. They work for porcupine[7] as well if you leave out "ð" from the scale.//

//Porcupine 8 alphabet: b c d ð// //e f þ æ//

//Porcupine 7 alphabet:// //b c d e f þ æ//
