Widely regarded as one of the most important female haiku poets, Fukuda Chiyo-ni was a Japanese poet of the Edo period. She started writing haiku early in her childhood and was strongly influenced by Basho’s poetry (probably because her teachers were his students).

The fundamentals in Basho’s poetry include: sabi (detached loneliness), wabi (poverty of spirit), hosomi (slenderness, sparseness), shiori (tenderness), sokkyo (spontaneity), makoto (sincerity), fuga (elegance), karumi (simplicity), kyakkan byosha (objectivity), and shiZen to hitotsu ni naru (oneness with nature). Fukuda Chiyo-ni was particularly interested in the latter, since most of her poetry deals with the realm of nature.

Silent Heron (naviarhaiku459)

- Texturex

With planning now for the @naviar-records event on 7th December at Cafe Oto, I'm thinking now as pieces as fragments that will make for materials for live mixing and performance on the night.

This is a tiny fragment from the improvisation I did the other week with @stellato-strings on the violin, me on the piano, and through panning, repetition and added effects normally used for vocals I'm trying to create a spider's web that is a series of bell-like connections.

This is in response to HAIKU MUSIC CHALLENGE Naviarhaiku 460:

Frozen dew gleams
Spiderwebs made stark
The cusp of winter

I came across David Pattison’s haiku on Twitter. David started writing poetry just a little over a year ago and uses it to share and express his love for nature.

This track was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0565 Musical Folly (details below):
I immediately was reminded of the Faringdon Folly Tower (see https://www.faringdonfolly.org.uk), the "last major folly to be built in England". It was commissioned by Lord Berners (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Berners),  the "last English eccentric" (see https://englandspuzzle.com/a-folly-a-deep-sea-diver-coloured-pigeons-the-last-english-eccentric-lord-berners/).

I wanted to present the Folly as a work of art, with no obvious use and with small eccentric details that are not visible at first sight.

Welcome to halF unusuaL, an evolving space inspired by play in the spirit of ‘hai’ (meaning “fun” or “unusual” in the word haiku). Here, improvisation connects the unexpected, mining the boundary between music and non-music to shape sound worlds that feel oddly familiar in their oddity. Listen freely, explore deeply, and for the sounds to live for your eyes as well as your ears, please stop by the YouTube channel. Thank you for joining this journey! Your support helps keep this afloat ... and is HUGELY appreciated 🥰
