Recorded in our rehearsal room in Cologne

Licht

A track produced for the 600th Naviar Records Haiku Challenge; 7 days in which to write and record a piece in response to the haiku posted. The haiku, 'thinking of us, the sound of wind, among the pines' made me think of the 'us' as several voices carried in the wind through the forest, so I used solely voice samples for the track.

Us the Wind Among the Pines (naviarhaiku600)

This track was created for the Naviar Haiku group.

a lonely impulse of delight - #4257 (93R85 percent 279 left) by chair house 250810

August 2025 Currently on residency in Italy !
These are the 2nd batch of 3 short sketches using field recordings captured around Montegiovi, Tuscany. With these little works I am experimenting freely with what can be produced from each days sounds - manipulating them and stitching them back together with the aim of producing a long format work at the end of the residency. I have done a dozen or so since arriving a fortnight ago but not sharing them all (some are pretty rubbish). The idea is to have them done by the end of the day (or night) then move on to something fresh the next day. 
I am truly thankful for this opportunity that has been provided for me by the Salamanca Arts Centre in Tasmania and Cultivate Projects/La Baldi residency in Italy and The USA.
And of course the wonderful people of Montegiovi !

Winter waterfall (Naviarhaiku 607)

Repetition of words void/vuoto/vacuum (English/Italian/Latino)helped me to express the sound of fowl moving noisily and ungainly.

'Ode for Void n.1, failing the shot

Chasing void like a duck. You can see it
taking off just above the water
the long neck directing. Ungainly.
A sense of urgency upon its beak
and wings. Where to go. Where to go next.
They rest on big trees, the ducks.
I saw two of them perched by a heron’s nest.
I failed the shot.*'

Ode For Void N.1 Failing The Shot

Poetry, Field recording and the More-Than-Human Human

'I use this space to offer an experience of Sonopoetry, the voice of verses combined with field/sound recording and music collaborations.
Writing and composition marked the passage from pre-history to history for human beings. I firmly believe that writing&listening (active care/empathy and full attention to each and every sound from each and every living and non living being) could inform, guide and represent the Posthuman era that I'll call Human Human era -from sapiens sapiens to human human.
The contemporary alliance between the disciplines of Art, Science and Philosophy elicits the conceptualisation of the Posthuman that to me also implies the transition from the Anthropocene to the Age of Art as a driver of thought and vision. I advocate the responsibility to assign a 'more than human' meaning to the Posthuman concept, that's why More-Than-Human Human, in order to emphasise the human core, the genetic connection to bio and non-bio diversity as per the Biophilia Hypothesis.
Are we listening?'
