haiku #592: slanting sunlight rays / a warm hazy afternoon / the forest to hear

An electronic composition created using Pure Data.

Ruffled Pages (naviarhaiku587)

Messing with a crystal bell ... !

slanting sunlight rays
a warm hazy afternoon
the forest to hear

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.

All sounds - including the music - were recorded during a rally against evictions, gentrification and police violence in Berlin on May 28, 2025.
Recording, editing, mixing and production: Velvet Something Superdark. 
Image: Police gather near the rally (Photo: VSS).
Spoken words at 2:48 (English translation): 
For every house evicted, there will be new occupations. For every killing, the cops will pay the price. We are here in firm determination and solidarity and we are showing that we will not be defeated. Get active! We don't have much to lose - but we have our freedom to gain.

Those Were The Days



Disquiet Junto Project 0702: Chain of Applications

Dato che la musica rappresenta più spesso uno stato psichico/psichiatrico che un'interesse o passione, il viaggio esecutivo/formativo di gran parte dei musicisti (o aspiranti tali) si dipana attraverso varie fasi di interesse/sviluppo/ per vari oggetti/situazioni sonore, rendendole, periodicamente e ciclicamente, trappole categoriali imperanti.
E queste categorie musicali cambiano spesso per tempo e modelli, sempre alla ricerca di quel qualcosa dimenticato, tralasciato, negletto per mancanza di preciso interesse o superficialità.
Se per Schaffer c'è stato prima Parigi (1948) e poi Colonia (1950), comunque  le mie personali (come di molto altri) scelte/ossessioni si sono immediatamente rivolte alla Germania (in senso molto lato ed altricolato).
Dallo SMET degli anni 80 fino a questi ultimi tempi, il mio interesse per la musica elettronica (accademica e non) è risultato pressochè univoco, pur con diverse metodologie ed aree di applicazione. Però con un sostanziale cambiamento: l'abbandono graduale del sintetizzatore per un ritorno agli strumenti acustici classici e all'uso del campione/sound object (per dirla alla francese).
Quindi privilegiando una tecnica che si basa essenzialmente sul trattamento del suono ( in senso molto lato), non tanto sulla creazione dello stesso.
Il campione, puro o trattato, alla fine rimanda, almeno per la parte istituzionale/accademica idealmente a Parigi e al GRM e ai loro monumenti verbali. 
Tralasciando però la parte autocelebrativa e autoreferenziale della scuola francese, si aprono contemporaneamente nuovi canali di applicazione/ossessione: aprire all'infinito il campo semantico del suono e della composizione . 
Quindi accostare suoni e relativi ambienti chiusi/codificati, a volte anche con ironia o provocazioni barocche. E aprire contemporaneamente lo spazio sonoro, con le tecniche multicanali (Atmos, Ambisonics et...).

Riguardo al software: parlando di campioni e sound objects, ormai lo strumento per eccellenza è diventato il campionatore, possibilmente multitimbrico (4-8)/multicanale, in modo da costruire immediatamente un ambiente musicale ben definito. Questo campionatore deve avere anche la possibilità di scelta della velocità, del tempo e della quantità di suono da trattare.
Se anche multicanale (out), posso ulteriormente trattare i singoli suoni prodotti.
Quasi sempre il campionatore è abbinitato ad un looper (mini, micro, da 6-10 secondi in avanti). Quindi tape music, però senza forbici e colla. Anche qua per l'abuso della frase musicale.

Se voglio usare la tecnica multicanale per la riproduzione sonora, consiglio la  IEM Plug-in Suite (Graz) e SPARTA Spatial Audio Real-Time Applications (Aalto)

Come direbbe David Sylvian "The ghosts of my life blow wilder than before".

In ogni caso, sempre e comunque, alla musica viene risparmiata "l'onta" del significato (G. Manganelli, '80).

thinking of us [naviarhaiku600]

Sacred Disruption

Future Relics captures the remnants of light and memory, where embers smolder in blue silence and fragments of flame float in stormy skies. Glass eyes gaze upon horizons frozen in time, while whispers echo off the marble and shadows settle in delicate patterns. Each track traces a path through ephemeral moments, where golden fractures shimmer and the vast embrace of what remains endures silently, timeless and eternal.
