Mathematically there is an isomorphism between scales. So I find it useful as a starting point just to remember: TTSTTTS, where T means tone and S semitone. The way I remember this is to visualize the piano keyboard starting with the interval between C and D. The chord construction demonstrated in this video I learned as "piling on thirds". If you also add the 7th, you construct the standard 4 note jazz chords. Because the diatonic scale has semitones, you can create different modes. You just move the starting point for the different modes in that particular key scale. The circle of thirds is a good idea. This has a cycle of 7 as does the circle of fifths. The interval between the circle of thirds is two and between the circle of fifths 4. However, if you look a little closely at the circle of fifths, you realize it does not actually exist. If you use it to find keys with sharps, it breaks down when you get to the key of B since the key with 6 sharps is the key F#. It is actually a circle of eighths where you have to think in semitones. I don't know why they don't teach that, since it would be much more logical.

Chords are a secondary effect of single lines moving at the same time. In the 1200s through to the 17th century music was mostly church music and it was single lines that were sung. There were strict rules about how those lines were allowed to move together and those rules became known as counterpoint. The preoccupation with the identity via the analysis of chords is an after-the-fact phenomenon.

Isn't that sheet of paper aesthetically pleasing? A work of art. I'm going to make one for myself and put it on my wall.

I can remember figuring out the pattern of notes to an octave that a scale was, all by myself jumping up and down in my room : "that's why its called a diminished chord!! That's how it works!! Oh my god!!!" I'll never forget that epiphany. Thought I was a genius lol

On the piano the easiest method to play 12 chords using base note, plus 4, plus 3. With right hand place thumb on a note (C for example to play C chord), then count 4 notes to get second note of chord (E), now count 3 notes to get third note (G). Now you can play 12 chords! Turn chords into minors by simply moving middle finger 1/2 step back, now you have 12 additional chords! You want 12 more chords? Same as base note plus 4, plus 3 just add another plus 3 to get your 7ths! Now you know how to play 36 chords, which gives you tons of songs to have fun with! 😁

Okay this is awesome. For some reason you're instruction by writing on paper increased my understanding. I've been playing the guitar off and on for 15 years and I'm so used to personal instruction and regular books. Since you were writing on paper and explaining at the same time I really focused and paid attention:)
