Andy Perrin is a writer/photographer/cyclist/teacher who lives in southern Rhode Island in the U.S. He often explores the world around him on one of his bicycles and records moments of inspiration in photographs and words.

Much of his work is rooted in nature and recently that led him to begin to practice haiku. Andy enjoys tight writing that allows the reader to find room for themselves among the words and lines. His poetry and photography has been published by petrichor, Roi Faineant Press, Brimstone & Venus Literary, Full Mood Mag, Spare Parts Lit, Green Ink Poetry, and Quibble Literary Journal.

Marco Lucchi - The waterfall [Naviar Haiku # 564]

Inspired by the Naviar Records haiku challenge #564 by Natsume Sōseki

Fog clears away:
the waterfall shows up
bit by bit.

This haiku made me think of a quote by artist Cecil Collins, 
“I see a shape complete in itself I search it with my mind and heart and then it begins to extend and I see in the half darkness that it is part of a colossal structure whose parts are covered in mists and darkness, sections appear and disappear; how many years has it taken me to realize that those mists, clouds, and darkness are in myself, and in the body given to me by the fatal powers of the world; that in Reality everything exists as a whole; a vision, a harmony, a joy.”

Cascade Rhythms [naviarhaiku 564]

Sitting in the tree tops, swaying with the wind, thinking with the trees. Inspired by the Naviar Haiku 600! by Andrea Cecon  "thinking of us
the sound of wind
among the pines"  Naviar Haiku https://www.naviarrecords.com/haiku-music-challenge/

All here, in reality, are works in progress and are therefore apt to change at any time. All those except XIII Sisters and RAW which, as many of you may have done, I literally gave away in return for their placement in a library. Something I won't be doing again any time soon. If you have a use for something you hear here please just ask.

ChatGTP said of AI Music...
'Creative AI tools can be seen as sophisticated plagiarism software, as they do not produce genuinely original content but rather emulate and modify existing works by artists subtly enough to circumvent copyright laws'

Sometimes it takes a dispassionate, independent view to actually see the truth of it ...

There are links to XiiixxiQ below. Your mileage may vary as to whether it decides to work on your system or not. It only runs on a Mac because I really don't have time to do all the necessary work to make it compatible with anything other than my 2015 MacBook Pro :-(. It is still being developed (for my own use) and improved, and I may yet get round to doing another release if I can find the time to tidy it all up.

"I'm a mellow artist, ageing 69. I love and release eclectic music, from post-classical to drone. My fave instrument is the Mellotron."

Così, sinteticamente, di solito mi presento.

In genere compongo musica partendo dal suono delle tastiere, ma il mio vero strumento è il registratore.

O i software di registrazione.

"I was made for loving and making recorded music."

Confido da sempre nel potere evocativo e orfico della musica, nella sua capacità di riconsegnarci a mondi più veri e più giusti, più belli di quelli in cui di solito viviamo.

SoundCloud è la piattaforma musicale che preferisco perché è soprattutto il regno degli ‘amateurs’, di quelli che fanno musica per sé e per gli amici .. come quando da ragazzi si condividevano con gli altri le invenzioni e le creazioni .. io sostanzialmente sono rimasto lì e così .. non sempre, ovviamente, ma spesso ci trovo delle cose che valgono altrettanto - se non di più - rispetto a quelle più affermate e conosciute

Halcyon Hum is a Cinematic and Pop Ambient project by Minneapolis based musician, producer and recordist, Stuart King.
