Faint yet clear (naviarhaiku606)

This is my response to this week's @naviar-records haiku challenge. Here's the information about that:

"slightly faint
yet clear
the milky way"

Toshio Kiyosaki (1922-1999) was a Japanese haiku poet and scholar of Japanese literature. He published a biography of Kyoshi Takahama in 1966 and co-authored Kyoshi Monogatari, another study on the renowned haiku poet, in 1979.

The Milky Way (amanogawa, or "Heavenly River" in Japanese) is a kigo for Autumn, mainly because that's when the galaxy is most visible in Japan.

Lost on the way to anywhere

A piece inspired by the botanical garden in Lausanne.

Cyclamen hederifolium

A track that was initially going nowhere (you could argue at over eight minutes long with about a single change it still does that...) but kept demanding to be made into something. So I did. Did not end up how I expected, which is part of the joy of this. Into double digits for tracks now, and almost double digits for run time. Maybe one day I'll write a sub-five minute long song again.

By Way Of Comfort

A fluid journey through movement and stillness, where each step traces invisible paths and each echo glides effortlessly. Agility meets grace in a delicate balance: shapes shift, light curves, and rhythm carries the spirit forward with silent, unwavering energy.

Wandering Choir

Amor Vincit Omnia

Traveller in sound and space.  Enjoying and creating ambient, drone and experimental music.
