Inspired by this week's Haiku challenge:

distant hills …
beyond the gate
winter stillness

In responding to this week's @naviar-records haiku challenge, I was exploring the live loops capabilties of Logic Pro. hHere I am taking nine tiny sample slices of improvising with @stellato-strings and slooooowing it right down to five.

Here's information about this week's prompt:

in dream world
was I laughing at a turtle?
winter seclusion

Among the four great masters of Japanese haiku, Kobayashi Issa was the most prolific: during his lifetime he wrote over 20,000 haiku, hundreds of tanka, and several haibun. If you want to find out more about this prolific author I suggest you check out this database of his haiku.

From the Haiku Guy website:

“Perhaps Issa’s dream is symbolic. Like a turtle, he is hunkered inside his shell (hut), waiting out the harsh winter weather. Or, William Nicholas offers a different interpretation, noting that the turtle is linked with good luck and longevity in Japan. In 1812 Issa was still a bachelor; he married two years later. At this point in his life he longed for the good luck of marriage and family life, hence the dream turtle’s teasing laughter?”

was i laughing [naviarhaiku488]

I wonder occasionally if using various effects on instruments and the digital processing of sound ion general is not some kind of mind-altering substance or like a drug. So I am toying with the idea of calling the album I recorded rather spontaneously on May 18th, "Under the Influence of Latency".  The fact of the moment was some issue with my soundcard. Rather than pull out the tool-kit, I decided to let the latency take me where it listeth. Been listening to the resultant 7 tracks thinking in might be a go for a full album. Time will tell.
