haiku #585: a splash of colour / cherry tree petals / drifting silently falling

pale green sprout and sun star

A deep journey

a splash of colour
cherry tree petals drifting
silently falling

Marc Sheridan is an ever-curious person who loves what is just around the corner: the unusual and the mysterious. Even everyday objects and scenes can always be viewed differently.

He is English but currently living in the US, and he always remembers what Ansel Adams once said, "You don't take a photograph, you make it." Marc believes that photography rewards him with a greater connection to everything around him.

Lately, Marc has been writing haiku, but he's not sure whether he illustrates his photos with haiku or reveals his haiku through photography.

He has been published in numerous magazines in the US and the UK and has exhibited up and down the West Coast of the US for the past 23 years.

My track notes regarding the creation of this track can be found here: https://llllllll.co/t/disquiet-junto-project-0691-un-ravel/71303/7

**Disquiet Junto Project 0691: Un-Ravel**  
The Assignment: Make a recording of a string quartet fall apart.

Step 1: Download the first movement of the Ravel string quartet at this URL: [https://bit.ly/un-ravel](https://bit.ly/un-ravel)

The original source is the Internet Archive: [Capet String Quartet - Ravel (Col. D 15057-60) 1928 : Capet String Quartet : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive](https://archive.org/details/3-capet-sq-col-d-15057-60-ravel-1928-mov-3/)

Step 2: Listen to the track closely.

Step 3: Create a new piece of music by employing the provided recording as source material. The goal for your piece is that it should make the Ravel sound like it is falling apart — that is, like it is unraveling, or un-Ravel-ing.
