drifting into the bedroom
a butterfly!

Enomoto Seifu was a female poet born into a samurai family in 1732. She focused on her writing mostly after her husband’s death in the mid-1750s, and later in life, she became a Buddhist nun. Her works were collected and published after her death by her son.

The Way In Snow (Naviarhaiku 513)

Teneuph

Microepiphanies

This track uses the latest - https://soundcloud.com/half-unusual/half-dark-naviarhaiku518 - Naviar Haiku submission as a starting point for some bluetooth mangling ... All sounds you hear are derived from a recording of the remote headphone connection breaking up whilst playing the haiku original. You can see the 'recording setup' in the middle of the accompanying image.

Begin with that low tape hiss foundation - this is your canvas, baby. Slowly introduce the punchy live drums until they're grooving like butter on your iron skillet. Scratch in those vinyl textures between the beats, letting them dance in the stereo field. Build tension like a Christopher Nolan film, then drop that mechanical pulse harder than your favorite bass line.

Automaton

I'm a composer, working from a 3' x 5' studio (some may call it a dinette) in a 5th wheel camper, while traveling the United States. I've been on the road for six years, so most of my recent work will have come from a different state (of mind and location) during my travels.

Music makes me feel better about everything. I don't know that I'm ever happier than when I am creating. I sometimes wonder if creativity isn't one of the primary keys to happiness. Do you ever feel better than when you say, "Look what I did."? This phrase magically conjures the purest sense of childlike joy.

Music works for every part of our lives. We all have music for when we are sad, happy, celebrating, meeting others, when we are alone, and even when we are lonely. Did a song come to mind as you read each of those situations? I remember the first song I ever heard on the radio, on my first bus ride to kindergarten. One of my favorite musical memories is playing in a band for steel beach on the flight deck of the aircraft carrier USS Nimitz.

I love telling stories with music. Everybody loves John Coffey in the Green Mile, but Mr. Jingles should have a song commemorating his reaching and joining the circus at Mouseville. If you agree, join me for this and similar journeys. The music here is synthetic, but as real as you would choose to have it.

My music most often lands on Soundcloud first and is inspired by one of my favorite communities, Naviar Haiku:

I find writing to a Haiku prompt sufficiently limiting and exquisitely inspiring.
