The Gate Shuts  (Naviarhaku 497 )

La porte se ferme
Avec un grand grincement 
Le temple s'endort.

(Haiku de Hosai Ozaki)

門をしめる大きな音さしてお寺が寝る (naviarhaiku497)

The gate shuts
with a loud groan
The temple sleeps

(Tr. Alex Fyffe)

naviarhaiku497 – The gate shuts
The gate shuts
with a loud groan
The temple sleeps

(Tr. Alex Fyffe)

Hōsai graduated from the Tokyo Imperial University, where he studied law. He got off to a good start but decided to give up his home, family, and business to jump from one militant religion of Japan to the other.

Just like Taneda Santoka, Hōsai abandoned the traditional verse form of his time and mostly looked at the austere confines of his life for inspiration.

Jodet

Jodet (disquiet0603)

In a 2004 photograph by performance artist and painter Keith Boadwee, the artist is shown jumping off the roof of a house, his naked body horizontally splitting the frame in half. The piece, titled Leap Into The Yard, is arguably the most benign of Boadwee’s works. (Google him if you dare).

Boadwee’s image serves as tangible evidence of suspension, both literally and figuratively: a moment caught between decision and consequence, a physical body arrested in the flow of time. Performance artists have long documented their efforts with photographs or films, the ephemerality of their works legitimized through a process of ocularity. Think of it as an early harbinger of the meme “pics or it didn’t happen.”

Then again, maybe the pictorial act of suspension is itself a lie. Art critic Martin Jay reminds us that photographs taken in the 19th century often produced ghostly double-exposures, and that any image we view represents at best a distorted truth. “Artists insistently stage their desire to be present, to have an immediate effect on their audience,” Jay writes, “yet this very desire bespeaks an awareness that images will inevitably interpose themselves, and that all images can mislead as well as inform.”

With the above in mind, Suss Müsik tackled this week’s Junto project as an exploration in ghostly, there-or-not-there suspension. A metallic percussion rhythm was looped through a distressed synth filter, while a chord sequence was played on electric piano. A DIY electronic instrument (built from an old computer heat sink and run through a hazy reverb modulator) provides floaty background atmospherics. 

It’s music that you hear, then you don’t; a sonic depiction of the blur between action and impact.

The piece is titled Ocularity and was recorded live to 8-track in July 2023.

This original version of "Across The Idlewild Marshes" was submitted as part of naviarhaiku498 – Long days and warm nights. It is based on this haiku by TreniseFerreira - https://twitter.com/TreniseFerreira.

Long days and warm nights
Laughter carried through the breeze
Summer sings to us

Some inspiration from some of the artwork here - whitney.org/exhibitions/spilling-over.

The title was inspired by a section in the book "Hidden Waters Of New York City" by Sergey Kadinsky.

Across The Idlewild Marshes (NaviarHaiku498)

This is my response to this week's @naviar-records prompt. Here's more details about that:

Laughter carried through the breeze
Summer sings to us

Trenise Ferreira is a Jamaican-American writer who has been telling stories her entire career: as a college football journalist, a publicist at Walt Disney World Resort, and currently as a corporate communications professional and children’s book author.

When Trenise was in third grade, her teacher said that she should write books when she grew up – and Mrs. Buckner got it right! Wonder and imagination are at the heart of Trenise’s stories, creating worlds where children can get lost between the pages, laugh, and learn along the way.

An active member of the SCBWI Los Angeles chapter, Trenise is also a graduate of the Children’s Book Academy and The Voice Roadmap writing programs. She was selected as an inaugural mentee for the 2022 Picture Book Rising Stars program and is currently a 2023 We Need Diverse Books mentee.

Most recently, she won the SCBWI 2023 Ann Whitford Paul Most Promising Manuscript (Fiction) Award. Trenise is represented by Hilary Harwell at KTLiterary. You can find Trenise in her natural habitat – on Twitter! – @TreniseFerreira.
