Im obsessed with historical tunings and temperaments. Early music sources (YouTube) has a good intro to just intonation. It’s a great intro to how the Pythagorean comma manifests if you’re interested.

In case you’re interested in the harmony/composition side, Schoenbergs book on harmony begins with a very nice derivation of the 12 note scale. Extending it to 24 should be fairly easy. So after that, developing a harmonic language becomes slightly weirder. Hindemith or Uhlela might be able to establish rules on harmony but this is the extent of my knowledge.

Some weird/cool microtonal stuff

giant steps but in 100 tunings
