I put together three generative parts for this in Reason - using Monotone, Felt Instruments Lekko & Subtractor. I then moved over to Ableton Live and did some processing there - shifted each track slightly off-time by stretching. 

This original version of "Surfactant Is Cool" was submitted as part of Naviar Haiku 564, Fog clears Away…

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

by: Natsume Sōseki (Tr. Sōiku Shigematsu)

Undoubtedly one of the most important Japanese novelists in modern history, Natsume Sōseki began his career publishing haiku and renku poems in a number of newspapers and periodicals. Early in his career he met Masaoka Shiki, who encouraged him to become a writer and tutored him in the art of composing haiku.

Between 1900 and 1903 he studied at the UCL in London, but this proved to be quite a dramatic experience for the young Soseki. Despite this, when Soseki returned to Japan, he exploded into prolific writing activity.
