I was more referring to scales of acoustics in the sense of working with
micro "grains" and macro "tones" in terms of whether people saw sound in
different scales of size as opposed to harmonic and melodic sequences, I
wasn't very about that clear in my last e-mail, apologies.

  when i'm making sound installations (for example
  http://frey.co.nz/projects/wind) i like to use the lydian or
  mixolydian
  modes, cos they sound pretty.

  does that answer your question?
