"the sixth month –
with clouds laid on its summit
Mount-Arashi"

haiku by Matsuo Basho (Tr. Ueda Makoto) www.poetryfoundation.org/poets/basho

LYRICS:

They. 
The big players.
Sinister and devious.
You see through them.

You.
The smart outsider.
A "Critical thinker”.
None as smart as you.

Dangerous, divisive.
Brother against brother.
Friends become enemies.

Dangerous, divisive.
Brother against brother.
Friends become enemies.

They can’t see connections.
The significance, the detail, the signals.
The code is cracked.

Opposing views, there is no grey.
The Sun is The Moon and night is day.

If fact is fiction and truth is just lies.
You’re losing your way with wide open eyes.

Dangerous, divisive.
Brother against brother.
Friends become enemies.

Dangerous, divisive.
Brother against brother.
Friends become enemies.

Zooming into some contemplative, expansive guitar explorations inspired by the following haiku:

from the mist
a boat for cutting reeds in the morning
has begun to emerge

In response to Naviar Haiku's 464th weekly assignment.

haiku by Mizuhara Shūōshi https://haikutopics.blogspot.com/2006/05/mizuhara-hana-no-ame.html

Mizuhara Shuoshi was a 20th century Japanese poet. Shuoshi rebelled against the principles of emotional detachment in haiku, which he thought limited his ability to emotionally express himself through poetry: he started a magazine called Staggerbush which focused on a more romantic, lyrical type of haiku.

Transparent Forms - Nick Ashwood - Cat 010 

Composed in 2022 for Microfest, an annual microtonal festival hosted by Kraig Grady and Michael H Dixon. 

Transparent Forms is Nick’s first group composition following on from his 2020 solo piece Unfolding/Overlay, (Inexhaustible Editions 027). Amanda Stewart wrote in the liner notes to that: “Enfolded in the shifting tones, our ears are at the edge of themselves.” With this new work, he continues this interrogation into the edges of harmonicity and perception. Frequencies from bowed guitar, flute and clarinet burst away from any notion of a stable lattice to reshape our understandings of intervals and chords, and our listening is continually surprised and delighted by the 'tastes' and 'colours' that are revealed. 

The instruments dissolve into each other to create an unrecognisable timbral unity where melody emerges from harmonic clouds.
