the wolf ring
Walk the Circle of Fifths —
and Play the Wolf
An old temperament buys sweeter thirds and fifths than the piano by banking all its error into a single interval — the wolf fifth, which howls. Here that wolf is a place on a 3-D ring you can walk into on purpose. The wrong note is the point.
Tap tiles to walk fifth by fifth. Drag the ring to turn it. Flip the temperament to hear the wolf appear and vanish. Idle 5s and it walks itself — across the wolf.
