You two have been a great team. I look forward to hearing where you each head after this.

heaven and earth:
neither exists apart from
snow fluttering down

ひらひらと雪
そしてなんにもない
天と地と

it was snowing this morning 
everything white everywhere smile
nowhere sounds

Kajiwara Hashin was born in 1864 and studied under Kyoshi. Although Hashin is not very well-known as a poet, this particular haiku that he wrote is quite popular worldwide: it was first translated by Miyamori Asataro and later by R. H. Blyth.

misty sea - Naviarhaiku589

A standard jazz ballad chord progression treated as an abstract ambient soundscape with three tracks of electric bass and 3 tracks of synthesisers.

Created June 12th 2025 For this haiku:

orchids by night –
within their fragrance looms
their blossoms’ white!

One of the four great haiku masters, Yosa Buson studied both Japanese and Chinese poetry. He was also an accomplished painter, and most of his poems were accompanied by paintings, resulting in a more diverse and individual set of works than the one by his main historical influence, Basho.

Orchids by Night -  naviarhaiku597

Where Gold Sleeps

Hybrid orchestral soundscape, a simple E minor chord progression played on both electronic and acoustic instruments:  5 synthesisers alternating with 4 bowed basses, 2 cellos and a violin.

scent of plum
in a flash of rising sun!
the mountain path

Daydreams On Microfilm - The Pull Of Uncertainty

I'm in the process of renovating/updating various aspects of my studio, adding new hardware/software. New music on the way.

I'm a believer in true social interaction on SC, having intelligent dialogue with artists, and giving personal feedback that is (hopefully) more inspired than "Nice."  There are a lot of decent artists here not attempting to "go viral", sharing great music that deserves to be heard and not drowned out by bots.  Encouragement/criticism promotes growth, so say something worth something.
