Magic extensions
Magic has various competing extensions to the 11- and 13-limit. The following temperaments are discussed in this article:
- Tridecimal magic (19 & 22f) – tempering out 100/99, 105/104, 144/143, and 196/195;
- Necromancy (19f & 22) – tempering out 100/99, 225/224, 245/243, and 275/273;
- Witchcraft (19e & 22ef) – tempering out 105/104, 196/195, 245/243, and 275/273;
- Sorcery (19 & 22) – tempering out 65/64, 78/77, 91/90, and 100/99;
- Intuition (19e & 22f) – tempering out 55/54, 66/65, 99/98, and 105/104;
- Telepathy (19e & 22) – tempering out 55/54, 65/64, 91/90, and 99/98.
The most important of these is tridecimal magic, where primes 11 and 13 are mapped such that 10/9 and 11/10 are tempered together and that 14/13 and 16/15 are tempered together. Necromancy takes the same mapping of 11 as magic, but swaps in a more complex mapping for 13, enabling the possibility of a higher-accuracy harmony. Similarly, witchcraft takes the same mapping of 13 as magic, but swaps in a more complex mapping for 11. Necromancy is the 41 & 63 temperament supported by 104edo, whereas witchcraft is the 41 & 60e temperament supported by 101edo in the 101cd val.
Sorcery swaps in a less complex and less accurate mapping for prime 13, as it finds ~16/13 where magic will find ~26/21, which is of course conflated with ~5/4. Likewise, intuition uses a less complex and less accurate mapping for prime 11. Finally, telepathy adopts the changes of both sorcery and intuition, resulting in a very low-accuracy temperament.
