==For Porcupine Party Pop Band==  
=="No Promises" Call for 22-EDO Scores!==
In response to much enthusiasm for Porcupine Temperament and the lack of music written in it, //Xenharmonic Praxis Summer Camp 2012// is challenging YOU to compose for our ad-hoc Porcupine Party Pop Band! The Porcupine Party Pop Band will meet during summer camp (August 3-11) in order to "get deep" into a single tuning system, i.e. finding our groove in it. To do this, we need people, especially porcupine-passionate people to write music that we can try.
 
Our ensemble is flexible and ad-hoc, but we will have something resembling a rhythm/chord section, a wind section, and vocalist(s). A score with 2-5 staves is ideal. We recommend using our provisional notation, detailed below.
 
We will be tuning our porcupine to the flavor of [[22edo|22-EDO]]. In your composition, you can take advantage of other features of 22-EDO, but we are interested primarily in exploring what it means to play in porcupine.
 
No promises! You don't have to come to camp to submit a score, and we don't have to do squat unless we dig your song. To submit, link a PDF of your score, and any helpful mockup audio files you might make, at the bottom of this wiki page. If you become a member of the wiki, you can host your file(s) here.
 
==Preparing to Play in Porcupine Party Pop Band==  
Read up on [[porcupine]] and [[22edo]]. We will use A-440 as our reference pitch.

In contrast with the pythagorean-based notation on the 22edo page, here is a provisional porcupine-based notation system.
In contrast with the pythagorean-based notation on the 22edo page, here is a provisional porcupine-based notation system:


This system uses porcupine[7] as the basic scale, which has six smaller steps (3/22 of an octave, about 164¢) and one big step (4/22-oct, ~218¢). We will repurpose the letters A-G, such that the distance between any two consecutive letters is that small step, and G-A is the one large step. The accidentals used are the same as the standard 22 sagittal notation.
