they spoke no words
the visitor, the host
and the white chrysanthemum

by: Ōshima Ryōta

Ōshima Ryōta was a Japanese poet of the Edo period. Some sources say he was a disciple of Yosa Buson, while others say his master was Hattori Ransetsu. He's mostly remembered for his essay “Bashō ku kai” 芭蕉句解 ('Study of Bashō's haiku') published in 1759, a magnum opus of his studies and literary theories on Matsuo Bashō's work.

is what’s unbearable

this one is again for Disquiet project
More on the 702nd weekly Disquiet Junto project, Chain of Applications — The Assignment: Make music by misusing a piece of music software — at https://disquiet.com/0702/

So i decided to use my browser i use dozens of times a day and for turning what the web has to offer into music i gave SORA (ChatGPT image AI) this prompt: "i want to synthesize image content into a soundscape so i need some original spectral image to  load into visualans"
images i got which i loaded into PaintShop Pro i often use for my photographic work (Olympus E 520 and Nikon D3500) to crop, resize and sharpen softly
These resulting images were loaded in to WarmPlace.ru 'VisualANS' image resynthesis and exported to .WAV i could arrange in Ableton. Some of those sample material was chopped and arranged into beats to top two layers of retroish, oldschool, early era of electronic music sound layers.
