This Haiku mix consists of several field recordings made from a resonating old iron bridge in the wind and falling melting snow in the morning sunlight.
Both these sources gave me this feeling of heavenly energy; both snow and wind being observed in the sky.

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun. If you want to find out more about this prolific author I suggest you check out this database of his haiku.

This track was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0608 (see below for details);
A field recording made on an IC train in the Netherlands (and already used for the track https://soundcloud.com/rabmusiclab/aankomst-amsterdam-zuid) was fed into the free transcription tool https://editor.flixier.com/transcribe/. The resulting Spanish text was translated into English. The free text-to-speech tool https://ttsfree.com/ was then used to create the voice pronouncing this text.

The field recording and the voice are accompanied by various instruments improvised to the existing soundscape.

The track-title is one of the translated sentences the AI has thought to recognize from the sounds of the train's interior.

The lyrics created by this magical approach are:

Marta,
Educates,
Alicia.
Thank you.
For if we are to what we are.
I have,
I don't know to yes.
Left number, the B.
Yes,
no nothing.
All right,
Miles,
I love me.

Sorry, Marta.
Thank you, Marta.
Don't go on.
