this is the part were you’re sitting with yourself. you’ve been self evaluating, and understanding why you are here on this journey that feels like nowhere.. you understand it now, and you figure out you actually love this process. you’re being one with YOU.

Admittedly, the extract from the still belies the line in this week's @naviar-records haiku poem challenge. The actual line is "half-asleep eyes", but we'll go with what's in the image. This week I've been collaging splice sounds and playing them live in Ableton, then drastically re-editing. I wanted to mix up how I'm making music. Break habits and form new.

The information about this week's challenge is here:

"half-asleep eyes
open to a dreamlike world
of blossoms"

Natsume Seibi (1749-1816) was the son of a wealthy Edo rice broker and was acquainted with a number of other famous poets, including Oshima Ryota and Kobayashi Issa. In addition to his poetry, Seibi left behind a number of fine examples of haikai prose.

Extract of a picture by Pascal Bullan

Notes from the Penguin Book of Haiku:

nebuki me o / hirakeba hana no / ukiyo kana

Ukiyo, the floating world of pleasure, specifically referred to the pleasure quarters with its various beautiful women (hana, literally ‘blossoms’) as well as to popular theatre and street spectacles.

 

Submission deadline: 24th September 2025

half-asleep eye (naviarhaiku611)

two track ep defining a certain period of life where the contrast is high, almost ironic. confused emotions yet basically not giving a fuck and enjoying it. enjoy
