I did a drone as I used to, and then I detuned it a little bit.

Detuned Drone [Disquiet0587]

The Ellipsoidal Belligerent Capacitor

22 9 12

I could not see the ciccada. I could not see the bell nor the semantron. I could not see the monastery of Sankt Ana, only a peak of a tower maybe, a steeple or lightening rod, up there, amid the trees, after the thick, gnarly bramby scrub going up the hill from our camp site. The sun ferocious and oozing plasma. Finding shade, we drank our water and read our books and plotted our course. The toaca in the monastery struck -- the percussion of hammers on a plank of wood, sometimes call the semantron -- I'd learned about this sound from maybe Kazantzakis, Sikelianos, Seferis--  one of those Greek poets anyway. A sound resonant of Mt. Athos. I've never seen the bells on Athos. Hearing the percussion, I rushed to the car to grab the recorder and catch the strange dry tabla amid the clicking insistence of the insects marking out their mating territorries. In the morning after breaking camp and breaking our fast, we drove up to the hill to visit the monastery. And the mystery of the semantron and the bells was repeated on a Sunday morning as well.

This is in response to the wonderful naviarhaiku series from Naviar Records in the UK. this is challenge 511, I did the first 52 the first year and occassionally through the years to show my support of collaboration. Starting to be back into it now and enjoying it. Hope you do as well, it is emoting what the haiku says, I hope.

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 🥰
