Arii Shokyu-Ni was a haiku poetess during the Edo period who began a wandering life after running away from her husband at 29 with the haiku poet Kohaku. Just like Matsuo Basho, "the Nun Shokyu" traveled to the Deep North of Japan.

viole-n-ts [ naviarhaiku582 ]

I see this sign everyday on my walk to the bus stop and it immediately came to mind when thinking of street signs. I took the sign to mean sounds that come one after the other, with no overlap, and challenged myself to create a track that is completely monophonic.

To do this I used Renoise and limited my self to only one track, I used samples from various sources, some that I had recorded, others rendered from Vital. Overall I think the limitation lead me to create something very unique and forced me to think outside of the box when writing rhythms and melodies.

programmed jazz beat, programmed upright bass, four takes of live improv piano, several samples from "silent hill: pt", metal tools foley, two layers of drone, scraped cymbal, and three return tracks of autochroma granular delay

Challenge: Find a piece of wood, the grain of which captures your imagination.

Hi, I've been working on percussion tracks, so I took this picture (taken in souther Spain), it is not really "shapes of the grain" but the pikes are so massive and menacing that I couldn’t stop thinking as a good notation for a spicy percussive track. I see short, high transient sound anyway.
So I decided to use my new Oberheim DMX virtual instrument exclusivelly, changing pitch and sound for the toms to represent those spikes.
Anyway, glad to be back on a junto, cheers DD

"fog dissolves to rain
- cool breezes clear the vista,
showing cloud-topped hills"
