Every pitch in the system is a combination of either zero, one, two, three, or four of 11, 13, 17, or 19, for a total of 1 + 4 + 6 + 4 + 1 = 16 pitches. In other words it is the [[wikipedia:Power_set|powerset]] of {11, 13, 17, 19}. | Every pitch in the system is a combination of either zero, one, two, three, or four of 11, 13, 17, or 19, for a total of 1 + 4 + 6 + 4 + 1 = 16 pitches.

Since the EFG system of Yer includes both 11 * 13 * 17 and 19 as pitches, that means the comma exists as an interval in the scale. Since it’s so tiny, though, the two notes related by it can hardly be treated as separate. This means that when you go to draw this tuning out as a JI lattice, you can do something you wouldn’t normally do, which is set a couple points right together. | Since the EFG system of Yer includes both 11 * 13 * 17 and 19 as pitches, that means the comma exists as an interval in the scale.

You could think of this lattice as a pair of cubes. One is an Euler-Fokker genus of [11, 13, 17]. The other is that same Euler-Fokker genus, just with every node multiplied by 19. That’s why every point in the second cube has the same set of circles colored in as the analogous one in the other cube, just with the magenta 19 filled in as well. | You could think of this lattice as a pair of cubes.

So every point in the first cube is connected to the analogous node in the second cube. Normally the node for 19 would not have any direct connection with the node 11, 13, 17. It only directly connects with one node in the other cube, its analogous one, the unison. But here we see that not only is there another effect going on connecting these two nodes, that effect goes beyond connecting them, it straight up conflates them. | So every point in the first cube is connected to the analogous node in the second cube.
