Only the moon remains
floating in the memory upon
Kinokawa River
 
There's so little information about this amazing renga poet that I decided to share another poem written by him. This one is part of a longer sequence, written in 1463:

Only the moon remains
floating in the memory upon
Kinokawa River—
pale glistening waves,
the blank wake of drowned men.
 
About this poem, the author said: "Among the hundreds and thousands who have drowned and perished in this river
due to the disorders in this province were those whom I knew in former days. Often
I would walk along the river, gazing at the moon."

(Heart's Flower - The Life and Poetry of Shinkei)

Shinkei (1406-75) was a renowned renga poet and critic, best known for his two-part work "Sasamegoto" (Murmured Conversations). To find out more about this interesting and largely unknown poet-priest, I recommend reading Heart's Flower - The Life and Poetry of Shinkei by Esperanza Ramirez-Christensen

Contribution to Naviar Haiku challenge 538:

Only the moon remains
floating in the memory upon
Kinokawa River

Challenge details here:https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge

I made the river the central element and created the ambience using samples form Freesound then added generative drone elements in virtual modular using VCV Rack. I  let that run and played an improvised layer using a free Shakuhachi sample pack from Samplephonics: https://www.samplephonics.com/products?term=Shakuhachi  with added reverb.


Freesound samples used:

Ambiance_Brook_Calm_Stereo by Nox_Sound,
Water dripping down rocks at the edge of the dam in St Saturnin Les Apt, France by Raphael.Malf...,
water on rocks, calm, manitoulin by TRP
Mineiros Brasil selva - 3.12.17 - midnight frog chorus long by 
samwd,
frogpocalypse by spoonboysf.

Sleep (Deconstructed Mix)

Poltergeist

I'm primarily a visual artist both 2D and 3D, for the last decade I've operated almost exclusively in the digital 3D realm.   since the late 80s I've made periodic forays into the sonic world, MIDI sequencing, minimalism, musique concrète, found sounds  and improvisation. I am seldom happy with anything and seldom consider a piece finished.

Naviar is a music community and label. Through regular publications, open projects and events, we explore the connection between experimental music and traditional Japanese poetry.
