Original Wikitext content:
A **dome** is any "alternate form" of a scale that is not a [[mode]]. It might consist of the same steps in a different cyclic order, or it might consist of a different set of steps but very similar interval inventory. To be called "domes", however, two scales must be very closely related; so closely related that it's better to think of them as different versions of the same scale. (The term is thus subjective, and really describes how the writer is thinking of some scales rather than anything about the scales themselves.) The term (which is a permutation of the letters of the word "mode") was invented by Mike Battaglia to describe the way different [[Fokker blocks]] with the same unison vectors (that are not modes) are related to each other.
