An improvised piece...

Electronic composition, a textured drone sequence, sounds created using Pure Data.

Verdant (naviarhaiku615)

Lost in birdsong. This piece was made for the Cities and Memory Autumn 25 season event. Choose a sample from around the world - make a piece - https://citiesandmemory.com. I chose this Japanese bird song, and made all the materials in this piece from the one sample, except for a little rogue bee sample that makes its way in occasionally.

This turned out a bit more Hallowe'en than I was expecting, but given the date, maybe that's OK 😁💀🎃

Saitō Sanki (1900 – 1962) was a dentist who discovered his passion for haiku poetry in his mid-thirties, when his colleagues at the hospital in Soto Kanda convinced him to write a haiku for a collection. Later, he became one of the most important exponents of wartime haiku: he was imprisoned in 1940 during the government’s World War II persecution of controversial artists, and was officially forbidden to write until the end of the war.

Apologies for any distortion, I've been suffering from an ear infection and so it's dulled my lug holes. I deviated slightly from the suggested source recordings and used http://www.freesound.org/people/suonho/sounds/17726/ for the water section as it was already on my hard drive.
I ran the source sounds through a series of fx chains, distortion,pitch shifting, gating, delay and reverb. I recorded some snippets and sent these into idensity, Samplr and LiveFx.
 I also ran the original recordings through PaulStretch's harmonic and octave mix effects. The water recording was loaded into Yellofier to create a bit of rhythmic movement. 
The limit of having overlaps of no more than 3 seconds made some of the transitions a bit sudden and I pretty certain there's a few spots where I might have extended the fade ins a little more than 3 seconds :)
Disquiet Junto Project 0069: The 4 Elements

This is a shared-sample project. Its theme is “The Four Elements.” The goal is to create a new piece of music by employing the following four source recordings, each of which is intended to represent one of the elements: earth, water, air, and fire. (Alternately, you can record your own source audio for any or all of the elements.) Your track should be be divided into four segments of roughly equal length, one for each element. Any two consecutive segments may overlap, but only briefly, up to three seconds. You can manipulate the source audio in any way you choose, but you cannot add any other source audio.

Earth: http://www.freesound.org/people/ABouch/sounds/174938/

Water: http://www.freesound.org/people/aesqe/sounds/39901/

Air: http://www.freesound.org/people/Bosk1/sounds/144083/

Fire: http://www.freesound.org/people/suonho/sounds/3202/

Deadline: Monday, April 29, 2013, at 11:59pm wherever you are.

Length: Your track should have a duration of between two minutes and five minutes.

Information: Please when posting your track on SoundCloud, include a description of your process in planning, composing, and recording it. This description is an essential element of the communicative process inherent in the Disquiet Junto.

Title/Tag: Include the term “disquiet0069-4elements” in the title of your track, and as a tag for your track.

Download: Please consider employing a license that allows for attributed, commerce-free remixing (i.e., a Creative Commons license permitting non-commercial sharing with attribution).

Linking: When posting the track, be sure to include this information. Of course, edit/omit the source-audio text, should you decide to produce your own source recordings:
