"I've... seen things you people wouldn't believe...
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched C-Beams glitter in the dark
Near the Tannhäuser Gates.
All those... moments... will be lost in time,
Like tears... in... rain.
Time... to die..."

Rutger Hauer

Separation is the stage where we make our thoughts and emotions more defined by practicing introspection, self-awareness, and self-analysis.

A simple example of this process is understanding the difference between our anger and our grief or the conflicting desire to isolate ourselves but also connect with other people.

The process of separation involves truly becoming aware of our authentic feelings towards others and ourselves. In this stage, we choose to experience our anger, frustration, or disappointment towards another or ourselves, rather than reverting back to the old habit of dutifully trying to “forgive and forget” because it is the “right” or comfortable thing to do (or, on the other hand, to react and hold a grudge).

Separation is closely entwined with shadow work in that we must allow all feelings and thoughts within us to surface side by side and become aware of our “darker side.” This practice helps us to isolate particular elements of our character to honestly see and assess them, then to eventually consciously embrace and transform them."

Known for playing bass in Japanese indie pop group never young beach, Keigo Tatsumi takes a left turn with his first solo offering, 'AT US'. Composed as a soundtrack companion for Tomohiro Takeshita's photo exhibition 'Across the United States', Keigo utilizes field recordings from the photographers travels, combining them with experimental ambient soundscapes to recreate the artist's feeling of traveling alone across a foreign land.

"A gorgeous free-flowing piece by the prolific, broadly talented Marco Lucchi of Modena, Italy, combining pipe organ and synthesizers into a kind of insectoid raga. The track, five minutes or so long, is a whirring drone inside which cascades of organ notes, up and down the scale, pushing through for relative prominence. It tastes of Terry Riley in particular, and in a good way. There’s a remarkable amount of new music for organ being created currently, and this is a splendid addition — both the piece itself, and the combination of instruments."

I would like to thank Marco for giving me this opportunity.

濁り水のたうつ冬の雪曇りここは地獄と独り言す火

Winter. Snowy cloudy. Muddy water rushed in from the ocean and swept everything away. At night, “This is hell,” someone said to himself, staring at the fire in the distance.

Marco Lucchi & Puppy Bordiga - Dialogs in the Corridor (Soliloquy rework)

... on the road to discovery with both lightness and power.

In coral caves underwater, hundreds of mermaids wag their tails in sync with a music that is submarine and green, whilst phosphorescent lights from abyssal creatures are reflected and blink on their tails' scales.
