Looking, Not Seeing  ( Naviarhaiku 425 )

A live electronic sequence created in Pure Data.

Spring Buds (naviarhaiku425)

For this week's naviar haiku I tried the VSTs Noises and Wires by Audiothing / Hainbach. Adds some warmth to my sound textures. Ridiculously great plugins.

Spring buds unfolding.

Looking, not seeing [naviarhaiku425]

This is a recycled improvisation that I did a while ago. It seems to suit my haiku for this week. It's played on a six-string fretless bass, with some effects added. Recorded and mixed in Reaper. Mastered with CloudBounce.

Looking, Not Seeing (naviarhaiku425)

I am a human animal & through my creative practices seek to connect to the flow of life to let my innate intuition guide me before my logical mind controls me. To undo or at least side-step some of my cultural conditioning so the spirits of the place I am in can express through me. This  forest I am in, the rock I sit on beside this stream, the footpath below my feet, this vast planet we all live upon. The natural world so often unconsidered, ignored, I aim to give it some voice.
