  2. Eleventh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleventh

    In music theory, an eleventh is a compound interval consisting of an octave plus a fourth. A perfect eleventh spans 17 and the augmented eleventh 18 semitones , or 10 steps in a diatonic scale . Since there are only seven degrees in a diatonic scale, the eleventh degree is the same as the subdominant (IV). [ 1 ]

    Fourth factor (F), in red, of a C suspended fourth chord, C sus4 (play ⓘ).. The fourth degree is octave equivalent to the eleventh. The dominant eleventh chord could be alternatively notated as the very unorthodox ninth added fourth chord (C 9add4), from where omitting the 3rd produces the more common ninth suspended fourth chord (C 9sus4, also known as the jazz sus chord).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_time

    A unit of time is any particular time interval, used as a standard way of measuring or expressing duration. The base unit of time in the International System of Units (SI), and by extension most of the Western world , is the second , defined as about 9 billion oscillations of the caesium atom.

  6. Just intonation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_intonation

    An interval tuned in this way is said to be pure, and is called a just interval. Just intervals (and chords created by combining them) consist of tones from a single harmonic series of an implied fundamental. For example, in the diagram, if the notes G3 and C4 (labelled 3 and 4) are tuned as members of the harmonic series of the lowest C, their ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allen's_Interval_Algebra

    Allen's interval algebra is a calculus for temporal reasoning that was introduced by James F. Allen in 1983.. The calculus defines possible relations between time intervals and provides a composition table that can be used as a basis for reasoning about temporal descriptions of events.

    Then in the second period by 2/12, in the third by 3/12, in the fourth by 3/12, fifth by 2/12 and at the end of the sixth period reaches its maximum with an increase of 1/12. The steps are 1:2:3:3:2:1 giving a total change of 12/12. Over the next six intervals the quantity reduces in a similar manner by 1, 2, 3, 3, 2, 1 twelfths.
