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

This track is a product of my electronic music project called Project 30km.

Hazardous Game

ginger and lime

contemplative mood


Shutter Drift
The alley was quiet, blue neon reflections. 
Wind stirred…
Alone…
Somewhere nearby, a guitar played—slow, melancholic,
 like it was remembering something too.
Just feeling.
Weightless.

The sound of camera shutter snap, 
like percussion slicing through the drifting guitar.
Time slipping…
A breath held..
A thought, an echo of something almost real—then gone.
Then stillness.
The alley was empty,
Always had been. 
Only photos remained—blurry, half-memories
Memories that ever happened….

Valentino Falcone

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.

Exploring Star Fields

Questo brano è stato registrato il primo febbraio 2009 durante la performance dell'Orastrana "Il si bemolle dell'avvenir", nell'ambito della rassegna di musica e letteratura "Sil-La-Bo", organizzata dall'ARCI di quella città, che coinvolgeva oltre all'Orastrana anche Antonio Malagrida con Enrico Paolucci e Federico Tiburzi, i Li.B.Ra. con Marco Scarponi e Augusto Amabili, Giulia Elisei con Vanni e Flamì' di Luponair (Radio Erre) e l'immenso Massimo Zamboni.
La poesia è "Arcadia Felix", di Carlo Natali.
Al basso c'è Mauro Rocchi e ai marchingegni elettronici c'è Thomas Graber.
