“Kaze no denwa” is Japanese for “wind telephone.” In the coastal town of Otsuchi, which was devastated by the earthquake and tsunami of March 2011, a gardener named Itaru Sasaki installed a white phone booth on his land overlooking the ocean. Thousands of visitors have come to this booth, to use its old rotary phone to speak to the relatives they lost in the tsunami. The phone is disconnected; words spoken into the receiver go nowhere—or perhaps everywhere, as the wind carries them away.

kaze no denwa

performed by The Fivefold Galactic Bells:
Thad Anderson and Owen Weaver, percussion
Franklin Gross and Luke Gullickson, pianos

"...that's the way to live. All alone and free in the soft sands of the beach by the sigh of the sea out there, with the Ma-Wink fallopian virgin warm stars reflecting on the outer channel fluid belly waters." -- Jack Kerouac, The Dharma Bums

Outer Channel is dedicated to Paul Motian.
