Original Wikitext content:
The 13-prime-limit refers to a constraint on selecting just intonation intervals such that the highest [[prime numbers|prime number]] in all ratios is 13. Thus, [[40_39|40/39]] would be allowable, since 40 is 2*2*2*5 and 39 is 3*13, but 34/33 would not be allowable, since 34 is 3*17, and [[17-limit|17]] is a prime number higher than 13. An interval doesn't need to contain a 13 to be considered within the 13-limit. For instance, [[3_2|3/2]] is considered part of the 13-limit, since the primes 2 and 3 are smaller than 13. Also, an interval with a 13 in it is not necessarily within the 13-limit. [[23_13|23/13]] is not within the 13-limit, since [[23-limit|23]] is a prime number higher than 13). The 13-prime-limit can be modeled in a 5-dimensional lattice, with the primes 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13 represented by each dimension. The prime 2 does not appear in the typical 13-limit lattice because octave equivalence is presumed. If octave equivalence is not presumed, a sixth dimension is need. =Music= [[http://sonic-arts.org/hill/10-passages-ji/10-passages-ji.htm|Venusian Cataclysms]] [[http://sonic-arts.org/hill/10-passages-ji/02_hill_venusian-cataclysms.mp3|play]] by [[Dave Hill]] [[http://sonic-arts.org/hill/10-passages-ji/10-passages-ji.htm|Chord Progression on the Harmonic Overtone Series]] [[http://sonic-arts.org/hill/10-passages-ji/06_hill_chord-progression-on-harmonic-series.mp3|play]] by Dave Hill =See also= [[Harmonic limit]]
