Name: Shimmering Twilight (naviarhaiku595) by ray_cobley
Duration: 4 min 48 s
Description: A textured drone sequence, sounds created using Pure Data.

A response to Disquiet Junto prompt 0700, and based on a true story. From the window in my pantry I can see into my neighbor's back yard, where they have their hen house. Sometimes things happen. 

Unedited field recording, vintage Korg M3R. and reverb.

When I went outside this morning with my field recorder, one of the hens got agitated and started complaining loudly and repeatedly. She continued for almost exactly three and a half minutes, then stopped just as suddenly as she had started. The song is 3:43 minutes long.

Poses the age-old question, "Can Coraline make a serious song around a chicken sample?" What do you think?

This is my response to this week's @naviar-records haiku challenge. Here's the details about that: 

"Under the twilight sky
light shimmering on the pond -
swallows in autumn"

Dakotsu Iida trained under Takahama Kyoshi, and was chief editor of the poetry journal Unmo until his death. His son Ryuta Iida, a famous haiku poet himself, took over as the editor of Unmo after his father’s death.

Disquiet Junto Project 0700: View Frame
The Assignment: Share the view and some sounds inspired by the view.

The cover picture shows the view from my window. I used a virtual modular system and wanted to create the feeling of crowded chaos, of structure and nervousness, of importance and frivolity. All from a distance, as I am still outside the picture looking out of the window.

The (cover) image does not perfectly equal the inner image I had in mind, as it is lazy sunday afternoon and vacation time, so the city is not that busy at the moment.

Coming into a new environment isn't always easy. You have the plan to evolve, to move forward, but that's not always easy. This album is about that and, ultimately, about being at peace with yourself.
