Poetry by Jeff Gburek & Ahmad Almallah ("A poem for Gaza, a pome for Palestine) voiced by Jeff Gburek. Music: melodica loop layers, prepared guitar, zither by Jeff Gburek

abyss or kiss in the shadows
beneath the dust the stone
from the once hanging window
where your eyes will hover forever
within my piece of endlessness
although your eradication is utter
and my grief secondary to yours
who crumble upon the ground
& only through the one
nearest so dear to me can I
fathom the absence
fracturing my sentence
I the landless who know daily
what they seek to take away
from the likes of you
and I see those eyes
you seek with your own
as if the only grace I've known
were blown away
by a ravaging wind

-- Jeff Gburek

Gaza, the last thing you need is a poem. Don’t say!
I have nothing else to give. A poem is a poem…what can it do? Don’t say!
But simply be like a poem.
You were an open land, and
your sea was no sight
for blood. Yes, once upon a time,
you asked nothing
of the world,
and it gave you
nothing.
Gather our words and toss them into
the empty well.
Screams don’t linger, but they do not
disappear—
They lodge themselves
beyond the ear,
and once they begin to haunt
they appear, they
reappear.
*
Corrupted by the attempt to apply logic
to the wound. We are all talk
no action!
We all know, that talk is talk
that’s why no one
listens.
Reality wounds can’t be mended by
thoughts. We all know—
Don’t keep me in your prayers, and please
spare me the guilt.
Where can the eye rest on the sight –
screaming children?
*
I want my words to spill blood and when I say
that once upon a time…
I want you to cringe
because this land has only one name—
and its people are only
its people
Call them what you may, that doesn’t change a thing—they too disappear
and they too will reappear—
*
Once upon a time, Gaza,
there was no need for anyone to give you any
empty words, like this poem. Your only hope
is to look us straight in the eye, and say once more, that you were,
and are, once upon a time.

– Ahmed Almallah

This one was inspired by the soundtrack to a TV series MArk was watching at the time - Annika. The lyrics are nothing to do with the show though.

These minutes
Feel like months of mire
What's to be undone
I can't untie
More than I tied up
And yet I fail
To see a setting sun

No-one is here but us
No-one to break us up
No-one to feed their lies
Or steal away what's ours
No-one is here but us

It must be burning
As embers burn
It must be burning
As embers burn
It must be burning
As embers burn
It must be burning
It must be burning

It Must Be Burning

The Return

Just a little experimental drone to test out some oscillator sync ideas, using the DPO and XPO (and other stuff) in my recently reconfigured Make Noise Shared System (see photo), and my new reverb (Chase Bliss CXM 1978). Also a way of exercising my new subwoofer.

The three oscillators (DPO A, DPO B, and XPO) are synced to each other in a circular fashion (see below for more details). They were initially tuned to the same pitch but there is a small amount of slow pitch modulation applied to all three. There is also a bunch of other slow modulation affecting the filter (QPAS) and the delay (Mimeophon) as well as other aspects of the oscillators. All the modulation comes from an Instruo Ochd, which is the only non-Make Noise module in this system. Finally through the CXM 1978. No post-production other than fade-in/fade-out and normalization.

Warning: lots of deep lows. Use headphones or preferably good speakers (best with a subwoofer).

For the modular nerds, here's how the oscillators are connected together:
- XPO Spike output to DPO X-Lock (this syncs the DPO B oscillator to the XPO)
- DPO A oscillator in Sync mode (which syncs it to DPO oscillator B)
- DPO A oscillator triangle output to XPO sync input

In addition:
- DPO A sine output ring-modulated to DPO B sine output (using section 1 of modDemix)
- DPO B sine output ring-modulated to DPO A sine output (using section 2 of modDemix)

Sync Study

Assume a cathedral shape

I found out today that John passed away. 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)."
