Hōsai graduated from the Tokyo Imperial University, where he studied law. He got off to a good start but decided to give up his home, family, and business to jump from one militant religion of Japan to the other.

Just like Taneda Santoka, Hōsai abandoned the traditional verse form of his time and mostly looked at the austere confines of his life for inspiration.

John participated in the Naviar Haiku challenge for over 4 years, almost every week, and shared both his music and poetry with us. He'll be deeply missed. "John Hinks, aka FlownBlue, was a prolific and talented composer, and a regular participant in the Haiku challenge. Aside from his solo project, John was also involved in multiple projects: ‘Windfall Light‘ (with Jim Tetlow), ‘Abstract Blue‘ (with Kevin Buckland), ‘Light Fragments‘ (with Steve Escott), Szukanie (with Michał Wojciechowski), and Meadowlight (with Emma Reed)."

So, I recorded me cracking open a can of coke zero and pouring a glass ... and all the sounds comprising the rhythm track are from that recording - and you can maybe spot where all the individual sounds come from using the video images from the 'recording session', which you can find at https://youtu.be/2WlUiN3crBQ ... Enjoy!

This was my contribution for Disquiet Junto Project 0642: Kick from Champagne

Here’s a copy of my post on the Disquiet Junto 0642discussion thread on Lines:

Revisited an unfinished piece from a few months ago for this assignment. I had experimented with percussion using a very cool Max for Live sequencer Fibonacci Devices by Lines participant @ithkaa, and figured this beat based assignment would be a great way to complete it.

I incorporated a sample of sparkling water being poured, "Fizzy Fill" by magnuswalker from freesound.org, for the sound of something carbonated. I used a bell-like preset from Slate+Ash Choreographs for the Fibonacci sequenced track. A drum synthesizer track was created using Fors Opal. Within that instrument, I added a "Fizzy Fill" sample to the Slate Granular Sample Player parameter as part of the kick drum and other percussive sounds. A slice of the sample was looped toward the end on one track. Other tracks used percussion and melodies created with Slate+Ash Spectres and SoundGhost Constellations. Effects used: Valhalla Vintage Verb and Room, Minimal Audio Cluster Delay and Morph EQ, and Cableguys ShaperBox 3.

Although it wasn't my intention, this ended up with a little bit of a Gamelan-like vibe to it, so I was happy with how it turned out. Photo is by Adrien Olichon from Unsplash.

A "techno" track with all sounds coming from the sound of bubbles in an open can of lemonade.
