HAIKU MUSIC CHALLENGE

Naviarhaiku 556

heaven and earth
still not rent asunder -
morning mist

Genkaibō was a Japanese poet and monk from the Edo period.

Despite my best efforts, I couldn't find more information about him. I came across this poem in The Penguin Book of Haiku, but there's no mention of Genkaibō's life or other works. I also found one of his poems in a 1991 edition of the Frogpond haiku journal. If anyone else has more information on this mysterious haiku poet, please get in touch and I'll update the description.

windspace began exploring electronic music in 1982 using analog synthesizers and in recent years has gravitated to ambient music. windspace today mostly uses computers to produce his music, but occasionally some ancient hardware sees the light of day. He also releases more experimental and extreme music under the name of ho66it.  He records his music now in Colorado where he resides with his greatest supporter...his wonderful wife.
