Naviarhaiku630 – one leaf falls
Disquiet Junto 0735 Spectrum Analysis
The Junto assignment this week is to "Write music inspired by a crayon" or specifically a colour.
It's been hot enough to melt a crayon in Leeton this week with temperatures in the mid-40s.
My colour is soft blue as I found myself fantasising about the winters in Canberra, where I grew up.
There you have those bright high-altitude skies, where the sunlight seems crisp yet the air is frigid.
It brought to mind the crunch of frost and with it the "blonde assassin" in Emily Dickinson's poem, as well as the happy flowers and their impermanence.
So I riffed on her imagery and arrived at something about unrequited love, then riffed on the guitar.
Naviarhaiku629 – autumn storm
The poem shared by Naviar Records came to mind, so I played in Live with adding a bass and synth part.
Disquiet Junto 0734 Meet Cue
The Disquiet Junto assignment this week is to "Write music for a scene from a favorite film."
A friend of my mother has a husband who taught film studies, so naturally I asked his favourite film.
It seemed like a question that he'd been asked before as without a pause he replied "Brief Encounter."
A friend of mine sends an email at the end of the year about movies and mentioned this film was on a public streaming service, so I started watching it with a view to using it in the Junto.
As I played guitar I couldn't help but use the chords that were recorded earlier in the week, so when I saw this scene I decided that it would suit a remix of that song.
