I am a 23 year old man from regional New South Wales, Australia.
I have a casual interest in xenharmonic/microtonal music. My favourite artists are Brendan Byrnes, Sevish and Greystar.
Frontiers have always fascinated me: The unexplored depths of the Earth's ancient history, lost to deep time. The unexplored far reaches of the solar system, the galaxy and the universe. And, the unexplored depths of the infinite pitch spectrum, an infinite expanse, hiding in plain sight between the keys of the piano!
I am prone to making careless mistakes, especially when calculating things with numbers, so apologies in advance for any of those. Please correct them if you see them.
