Naviar haiku challenge 618, details here: https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge

I already had the field recordings I needed to frame the track, a combination of a food market in Catania Sicily and Brixton Market south west London. Recordings from this sound pack: https://www.luftrum.com/free-field-recordings Sold in aid of WWF Denmark.

I then used VCV Rack to build an evolving sequence and a self generating melody, the main elements of the track. To these I added minimal background elements also VCV to form a bridge between the sequenced elements and field recordings.  

With all the synthetic elements ready to go I mixed and assembled the field recordings that open the track, having done a "Dry run" to test my mapped physical controls and multi track recordings setup for the VCV elements I took a guess and mixed the field recordings that close the track. When I hit record and did the live mix I found I was wildly wide of the mark so while the opening and all the synth elements are as performed I'll admit to sliding the closing set of field recordings into place after the event.

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.
