Ok... 

what I did was calculate the 12th root of PHI and put it into scala.

I think I did this right except./... did I get 11 notes per octave not 12?

Here is the scale I used.

I think you will hear that it does have some musical usage in this improvisation - sorry for the pauses - it took a little thinking to calculate the transposition of the 4 note arpeggio. and I did cheat - I'm playing back double time. But it seems to work.

The midi file and scale are here if you want.

Should I bother cross posting to [MMM]? I would imagine everyone there is here also.
