You can argue over whether it's a scale or just a collection of notes, but in the eight notes below are embedded all five keenanismic tetrads:

plus and otonal and a utonal tetrad. These are the chords used as a basis for what I'm calling the keenanismic tablet:

I plan to provide some examples of the use of these tablets as a compositional tool shortly. Aside from the 7-limit transversal, you can also call the scale 12/11-6/5-5/4-16/11-3/2-12/7-7/4-2, with steps of size 12/11-11/10-25/24-7/6-33/32-8/7-49/48-8/7.
