Aurel Fenchurch Street City of London.
Aural was standing by the bus stand waiting for his shift to start, he saw me and we nodded at each other and as I walked past he said got any good photos. I had been taking shots of 20 Fenchurch Street and I stopped and we started talking about cameras. He had bought a camera about a year ago but had only used it a few times and was laughing about that and then we got talking about technology in general. He had about 500 CD's but they are now all in the charity shop as he has transferred them to some sort of digital thing. Then again with a big smile on his face he said he really didn't like technology and the way were all becoming so reliant on it. Aural loves ancient history and is going to Mexico on holiday very soon to see the pyramids and he was telling me some of his past trips to ancient sites and his admiration for the architects and builders from these times.
Then it was time for Aural to go and I quickly told him of the project and took a couple of shots then jumped his bus I wrote down his name and badgered him for his favourite song but unfortunately he couldn't think of just one.

This is a former open-pit phosphate mine.
In 1865, a doctor and chemist discovered bone fragments and unusual stones scattered across a field. He took samples and found that they contained 70 to 80% tricalcium phosphate.
The phosphate mines were put into operation in the 1870s after further deposits were discovered. Hundreds of them were located in the region where Jurassic limestone outcrops, between Cahors, Figeac, Gaillac, and Montauban. However, by 1887, the deposits were already running out, and 112 phosphate mines were closed that year. The discovery of phosphates in North Africa made the mining of the Quercy phosphate mines less profitable. By 1902, only two remained in operation.
The scientific interest in these phosphate mines stems from the numerous vertebrate fossils found there, dating back to the Tertiary period, between the end of the Eocene and the beginning of the Miocene epochs, approximately 20 million years ago. Some of these fossils served as international reference points for the standard sequence of European fauna. Over 600 animal species have been identified in the phosphate mines.
The disused phosphate mines were slated to become landfills. Therefore, since 1992, the association "Les Phosphatières du Quercy" has been working to develop the Cloup d'Aural mine in Bach.
The phosphate deposits of the Quercy region were all located in cavities and sinkholes within the karst landscape.

I love this photo as it goes quite a way to expressing the energy and 'fire' Florence brings to the stage.
I've chosen this as one of my favourite shots. Check out the rest of my Showcase!

The astounding Polikarpov I-16. One of a clutch restored by the recently departed Sir Tim Wally’s of NZ. Beautiful, aurally distinctive, diminutive and rare.
..since the anime in almelo (the netherlands) i know "aural vampire" is a very popular band from japan,..
It was obvious that when Primus planned this show, the visual experience was just as important as the aural experience, but most of the show found the members of the band in very low light or dark shadows. I like seeing performers when they play but I don't plan their shows. So many of the shots were taken in very low light with high ISO which meant I had to use high levels of noise removal in post processing to make the images presentable. I still had a blast at the show though.
Fue obvio que cuando Primus planeó este espectáculo, la experiencia visual era tan importante como la experiencia auditiva. Entonces, durante la mayor parte del espectáculo los integrantes de la banda se encontraban en muy poca luz o sombras oscuras. Me gusta ver a los artistas cuando tocan, pero no planeo sus conciertos. Muchas de las tomas se tomaron con muy poca luz y un ISO alto, lo que significa que tuve que usar altos niveles de eliminación de ruido en el procesamiento posterior para que las imágenes fueran presentables. Sin embargo, todavía me divertí mucho en el espectáculo.

Brandi Fitzgerald likes using made-up terms. She loves adjectives like
"ginormous" and "fantabulous" and creates acronyms for everything. She even
has a word for made-up words: "wobo," meaning, "word combo." So, when she
talks about "diving into the EAR," she doesn't mean doing a jackknife into
someone's aural cavity. She's referring to a term she coined: the "Equality
Awareness Revolution." And Fitzgerald isn't exactly diving into it; she's
being thrown headfirst.
After Proposition 8 passed in California, banning gay marriage in that
state, an LGBTQ rights group called Join the Impact organized protests in
major cities across the country. Fitzgerald, a retail store manager, wasn't
an activist at the time, but at the urging of a friend in California, she
volunteered to be the point person for the Philadelphia rally. The event
attracted several thousand people, and now, she says, she is getting e-mails
every day asking her what will be the next step in the fight for LGBTQ
rights.
Fitzgerald, 32, came out as a lesbian when she was 14 years old. While she's
never faced discrimination or hatred on a personal level, she says, Prop 8
hits close to home. Fitzgerald lived in California for four years and was in
a domestic partnership, which broke up. Her experience as an organizer has
been something of a conversion process.
Fitzgerald says enthusiasm for the protest — which she describes as a "shoot
and then aim" scenario — surprised her. "When all the buzz happened and
everyone was on this natural high, I was getting 1,500 e-mails in a week
from people who wanted to help," she says. "And at the same time I'm going,
'I just stepped up to this and I didn't even know [how big it was going to
be].'" One thing she does know is that she wants the new movement for LGBTQ
rights to be fueled by love, not anger.
Naturally, Fitzgerald has already thought of an acronym for the movement:
LOVE, for "Listen, Observe, Volunteer, Engage." She explains how gay-rights
supporters can use the acronym to educate other people: A lot of people, she
says, want to engage their family and friends in a conversation about LGBTQ
rights, but don't know where to start. "Using LOVE, you can listen to the
other person," she says. "When you listen to them you can observe how they
react and you can gauge how to deal with the conversation. Then you
volunteer your information using facts. Then engaging is doing your part to
make this change happen."
After the rally, Fitzgerald formed a Southeastern Pennsylvania chapter of
the national LGBTQ rights group Marriage Equality USA, and has started
promoting more events for Join the Impact, such as Call Out Gay Day on Dec.
10, when every LGBTQ person is asked to call out of work, and a candlelight
vigil on Dec. 20. She's also gotten involved in the Project Postcard
campaign, which encourages LGBTQ people to write a postcard to Barack Obama
asking him to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act.
Fitzgerald has also co-created an organization called Create Equality, whose
mission is to combine the arts with the fight for marriage equality. Create
Equality is partnering with Join the Impact to hold an arts and music
festival Valentine's Day weekend in California. Create Equality has just
launched a campaign to get gays to send loving but educational letters to
everyone who donated money to the anti-gay Yes on 8 campaign, an initiative
they call "Prop 8 Love Mail."
Fitzgerald envisions an LGBTQ rights movement that uses technology to its
advantage. When organizing the Prop 8 rally, she relied almost entirely on
e-mail, Facebook messages and word-of-mouth to get the message out. Going
forward, she hopes to have virtual Marriage Equality meetings, in which
members can log on and share thoughts online, in addition to the in-person
ones.
Additionally, Fitzgerald has set up several Web sites. One of them,
imgaysowhat.com, draws inspiration from the sign she made for the Prop 8
protest. She couldn't think of a political message, so she wrote on her
sign, "I'm gay. So what?" The Web site will feature pictures of LGBTQ people
and a blurb about their lives. The Web site's motto is "Changing the face of
gay, one true story at a time."
"We have to change the hetero idea of gay [being defined just by what
happens] in the bedroom," Fitzgerald says. "That's got to go away. We're
everyday people with families and kids and jobs and trash to take out and
lawns to mow. There's absolutely no difference [between LGBTQ and straight
people]."
Not to be confused with Oral pleasure...
Tap both paddles to engage 'N', press the 'R' button on the side to reverse out of the parking lot, then engage 'N' and hit the right paddle to engage Auto.
Oh - remember to turn on the rear camera, just in case...
Damn, reversing out of a parking lot is that bit more difficult than my Civic, lmao!

Leave it to Jean-Luc Godard and Anne Marie Miéville to figure out how to use television to reveal the latent brilliance of a child. Created for French television during the radical days of the late 1970s , “France/tour/detour/deux enfant” (1978) is an intimate, provocative and quotidian video essay that uses avant-garde cinema’s techniques in a visual experiment that will change anyone’s perception of the developing mind of a human being.
Tonight Lynne Sachs will discuss the way that “France/tour…” influenced her own work as she reflects on the presence of childhood in her twenty-year film career. Beginning in her early twenties when the ambiguity of femininity seemed daunting and problematic to more recent years when motherhood has given her quick access to the conundrums of youth, Sachs, like Godard and Melville, ponders her relationship as an artist to this unavoidable eighteen year odyssey. Sachs will screen Photograph of Wind (3 min., 2001), Atalanta: 32 Years Later (5 min. 2006), and The Last Happy Day (38 min.) in their entirety along with brief scenes from The House of Science (1991) and Wind in Our Hair (2010).
Program:
France/Tour/Detour/Deux Enfants by Jean Luc Godard and Ann Marie Miéville
(excerpt from 12 part TV series, 1977, France)
Godard and Miéville take a detour through the everyday lives of two children in contemporary France. Sachs will present excerpts from the series.
Photograph of Wind by Lynne Sachs
(4 min.,16mm, b&w and color, 2001)
“My daughter’s name is Maya. I’ve been told that the word maya means illusion in Hindu philosophy. As I watch her growing up, spinning like a top around me, I realize that her childhood is not something I can grasp but rather – like the wind – something I feel tenderly brushing across my cheek.” (Lynne Sachs)
“Sachs suspends in time a single moment of her daughter.” Fred Camper, Chicago Reader
Atalanta: 32 Years Later by Lynne Sachs
(5 min. color sound, 16mm to video, 2006)
A retelling of the age-old fairy tale of the beautiful princess in search of the perfect prince. In 1974, Marlo Thomas’ hip, liberal celebrity gang created a feminist version of the children’s parable for mainstream TV’s “Free To Be You and Me”. Now in 2006, Sachs dreamed up this new experimental film reworking, a homage to girl/girl romance.
“Very gentle and evocative of foreign feelings.” George Kuchar
The Last Happy Day by Lynne Sachs
( 38 min. 2009)
The Last Happy Day is an experimental documentary portrait of Sandor (Alexander) Lenard, a Hungarian medical doctor and a distant cousin of filmmaker Lynne Sachs. In 1938 Lenard, a writer with a Jewish background, fled the Nazis to a safe haven in Rome. Shortly thereafter, the U.S. Army Graves Registration Service hired Lenard to reconstruct the bones — small and large — of dead American soldiers. Eventually he found himself in remotest Brazil where he embarked on the translation of “Winnie the Pooh” into Latin, an eccentric task that catapulted him to brief world-wide fame. Sachs’ essay film uses personal letters, abstracted war imagery, home movies, interviews, and a children’s performance to create an intimate meditation on the destructive power of war.
“A fascinating, unconventional approach to a Holocaust-related story … a frequently charming work that makes no effort to disguise an underlying melancholy.” George Robinson, The Jewish Week
Excerpts from:
The House of Science: A Museum of False Facts
(30 min., 16mm,1991)
“Throughout The House of Science an image of a woman, her brain revealed, is a leitmotif. It suggests that the mind/body split so characteristic of Western thought is particularly troubling for women, who may feel themselves moving between the territories of the film’s title –house, science, and museum, or private, public and idealized space — without wholly inhabiting any of them. This film explores society’s representation and conceptualization of women through home movies, personal reminiscences, staged scenes, found footage and voice. Sachs’ personal memories recall the sense of her body being divided, whether into sexual and functional territories, or ‘the body of the body’ and ‘the body of the mind.’” (Kathy Geritz, Pacific Film Archive)
Wind in Our Hair/Con viento en el pelo
(16mm, Super 8 and digital on video, English and Spanish, 2010)
“Inspired by the writings of Julio Cortázar, whose work not only influenced a generation of Latin American writers but film directors such as Antonioni and Godard, Lynne Sachs’ Wind in Our Hair/Con viento en el pelo is an experimental narrative that explores the interior and exterior worlds of four early-teens, and how through play they come to discover themselves and their world. “Freedom takes us by the hand–it seizes the whole of our bodies,” a young narrator describes as they head towards the tracks. This is their kingdom, a place where–dawning fanciful masks, feather boas, and colorful scarves — the girls pose as statues and perform for each other and for passengers speeding by.”
- Carolyn Tennant, Media Arts Director, Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center, Buffalo, New York
“Wind in Our Hair moves from childhood’s earthbound, cloistered spaces, into the skittering beyond of adolescence, exploding with anticipation and possibility.” Todd Lillethun, Artistic Director, Chicago Filmmakers
Program Run Time: 119 minutes
Lynne Sachs makes films, videos, installations and web projects that explore the intricate relationship between personal observations and broader historical experiences by weaving together poetry, collage, painting, politics and layered sound design. Since 1994, her five essay films have taken her to Vietnam, Bosnia, Israel and Germany — sites affected by international war–where she tries to work in the space between a community’s collective memory and her own subjective perceptions. Strongly committed to a dialogue between cinematic theory and practice, Lynne searches for a rigorous play between image and sound, pushing the visual and aural textures in her work with each and every new project. Since 2006, she has collaborated with her partner Mark Street in a series of playful, mixed-media performance collaborations they call The XY Chromosome Project. In addition to her work with the moving image, Lynne co-edited the 2009 Millennium Film Journal issue on “Experiments in Documentary”. Supported by fellowships from the Rockefeller and Jerome Foundations and the New York State Council on the Arts, Lynne’s films have screened at the Museum of Modern Art, the New York Film Festival, the Sundance Film Festival and recently in a five film survey at the Buenos Aires Film Festival. In 2010, the San Francisco Cinematheque will present a full retrospective of her work. Lynne teaches experimental film and video at New York University and lives in Brooklyn.

Her most recent production is NEVER ENOUGH, a documentary about American’s relationship with their material possessions, which is premiering at the 2010 Big Sky Documentary Film Festival. Other recent directing work includes SOMEPLACE LIKE HOME, a documentary about the redevelopment of Fulton Mall in Downtown Brooklyn, which she made for FUREE (Families United for Racial and Economic Equality). In 2004 Kelly produced and directed (with Tami Gold) and edited EVERY MOTHER’S SON, a documentary for ITVS about mothers whose children have been killed by police officers and who have become national spokespeople on the issue of police brutality. EVERY MOTHER’S SON premiered at Tribeca Film Festival, where it won the Audience Award, and had its broadcast premiere on PBS’s P.O.V. series. Kelly produced, directed and edited OVERCOMING THE ODDS, a short documentary that was distributed to more than 2,500 people internationally as part of a successful campaign to pass the groundbreaking Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, which set global standards on the promotion and marketing of tobacco. This film was a follow-up to MAKING A KILLING, a half-hour documentary Kelly produced and directed (with Tami Gold) and edited that addresses the marketing practices of the tobacco industry in the developing world. MAKING A KILLING premiered at the Slamdance Film Festival, was screened for delegates at the World Health Organization and aired on television in Nigeria, Serbia, Lagos and Vietnam. In 2000 Kelly completed SHIFT, a one-hour drama for ITVS about the volatile relationship between a North Carolina waitress and a telemarketing prison inmate, which premiered at the Rotterdam International Film Festival and aired on many PBS stations. Kelly’s other documentaries include OUT AT WORK (with Tami Gold), which was screened at the 1997 Sundance Film Festival and was shown on HBO. She is an Associate Professor in the Department of Film and Media Studies at Hunter College in New York City.

MAID MANIFEST: FRAMING THE O
posited
music is a structured act of listening. regardless of the origin of the sound source – a rigidly-structured symphony for double orchestra & mixed choirs, say, or the next 4 minutes & 33 seconds of random air perturberances – it is that act of listening that imposes conceptual stavery on the aural recept.
the oral recept, in the other ear, though similarly informed by the same sets of intervalencies (pitch/timbre/duration), is subjected to a conceptual receipt that aims almost solely at semantic construction, the materiality of the sounds themselves all but transparent in servility to the carried content.
sound poetry exists in the wide expanse between & interpenetrating into music & literature. a focus on the materiality of language stretches all the way from our prelinguistic heights to well beyond the current fashionations of postmodern cacademicism. from inadvertent grunt when the rock conks yr block to highly sophisticated choral extravaganzæ, sound poetry resists static definition of its material malleability.
deposited
as much as sound poetry enjoys parametric freeplay through literary & musical semioses, fixing on the sounds themselves as product is only part of the equation, the score all but transparent to the listening.
sound poetry is synæsthesia at work, a process of sounding sight. while this can be said of reading words & music generally, sound poetry's formal malleability is not limited to its manifestations as sound but is equally delimited in terms of its scoring techniques, which can contain elements of musical, literary &or a variety of optophonetic notational systems (a score can also be simply a set of instructions (not unlike a recipe) or a photograph of a leafless tree, its branchings ripe with lettriste pickings).
reposited
sound poetry is genrificational sabotage, rupturing the passivity of somnolent audi(o)ence.
audience is activerbal, re(ac)quiring an intercourse of emotion & intellection that allows the recept the rapture of conception.
not deconstruction but reconstruction.
not demented but remented.

MESSAGIO GALORE
province
sound is always an aspect of any form of writing, deliberately or not. from interior devices such as alliteration & homophony through chant & concrete poetry to sound scored for one or more voices, even the overt avoidance of such fascinations describes an acute awareness of the connotative potential of sound as content. red allowed, sound fastenates.
provenance
if linear poetry, chant & soundscores can be read aloud, it stands to reason that other forms of non-unilinear writing can be subjected to optophonetic translation processes into sound. at latest as early as the 19teens, sound poetry was battering at the bafflements of the genteel poetry reading & has continued in development ever since, albeit marginalized (from whence came, it should be remembered, such wondrous sepses as the Carmina Burana).
despite this continuity, its marginalization has been equally continuous & there is not – now, in Canada – much in the way of public performances of sound poetry outside the occasional choral novelty & random inclusions in various writers' readings. as a willwishing audience to such work, this is somewhat less than satisfying.
providence
MESSAGIO GALORE is thetic: an examination of scoring, reading, sounding & hearing techniques across as wide a range as one person with scant resources finds possible to play with.
its function is as a sort of a personal/live/serial anthology of chameleonate content, utilizing my own archive of material & many friends willing to undergo the rigours of rehearsal. while serving as a forum for my own compositions, it has grown to include much historical material from a wide range of sources both Canadian & international, its reach extending from the prolonged present (there will be new works premiered each time around) back to the 6th century (sofar).

ALEXANDER'S DARK BAND
participation
MESSAGIO GALORE is curated, directed, mainly arranged & performed, & partly written by jwcurry with the able assistance of many. it has been part of the study to perform particular pieces with a variety of people to hear how personality functions & modifies performance. thus far:
MESSAGIO GALORE: with Maria Erskine, 26 february 2oo4, Ottawa
MESSAGIO GALORE II: with Max Middle & Jennifer Books, 24 september 2oo5, Ottawa
MESSAGIO GALORE III: with Peter Norman, Ross Priddle & Laurie Fuhr, 21 july 2oo7, Calgary
MESSAGIO GALORE IV: with/as Alexander's Dark Band & Auxiliary, Trish Postle, 6 october 2oo7, Toronto
MESSAGIO GALORE V: with/as Alexander's Dark Band & Auxiliary, John Lavery & Carmel Purkis, 13 april 2oo8, Ottawa
particulation
Alexander's Dark Band consists of jwcurry, Maria Erskine, Nicholas Power & Rob Read
particularization
Alexander's Dark Band is the darker zone between primary & secondary rainbows, a light phonemenon Nicholas Power encountered in working on his manuscript of concrete poetry, The Theory of the Rainbow, in the early mid-'8os. he commented then on the potential aptness of the name for an ensemble, should he ever find himself part of one. during the delights of our gruelling rehearsals in Toronto, i was struck by the functionality of our working unit &, unanticipated by Nick, figured it made sense to have this specific collective be so-named & announced us as such.
post-performance, it was determined that we would be most interested in working further together on this project, honing & developing, expanding what might be possible with a fixed continity of personnel.
MESSAGIO GALORE will continue to explore other vocal apparati (both in terms of different ensembles & Alex's auxiliaries) but revels in the rewards of such a dedicated quartet

Cambodia (/kæmˈboʊdiə/ (About this sound listen); Khmer: កម្ពុជា, or Kampuchea IPA: [kam.pu.ciə], French: Cambodge), officially known as the Kingdom of Cambodia (Khmer: ព្រះរាជាណាចក្រកម្ពុជា, prĕəh riəciənaacak kampuciə, IPA: [prĕəh riə.ciə.naː.caʔ kam.pu.ciə]; French: Royaume du Cambodge), is a sovereign state located in the southern portion of the Indochina Peninsula in Southeast Asia. It is 181,035 square kilometres in area, bordered by Thailand to the northwest, Laos to the northeast, Vietnam to the east, and the Gulf of Thailand to the southwest.
Cambodia has a population of over 15 million. The official religion is Theravada Buddhism, practised by approximately 95 percent of the population. The country's minority groups include Vietnamese, Chinese, Chams, and 30 hill tribes. The capital and largest city is Phnom Penh, the political, economic, and cultural centre of Cambodia. The kingdom is an elective constitutional monarchy with Norodom Sihamoni, a monarch chosen by the Royal Throne Council, as head of state. The head of government is Hun Sen, who is currently Prime minister and the longest serving non-royal leader in Southeast Asia and has ruled Cambodia for over 30 years since 1985.
In 802 AD, Jayavarman II declared himself king, uniting the warring Khmer princes of Chenla under the name "Kambuja". This marked the beginning of the Khmer Empire which flourished for over 600 years, allowing successive kings to control and exert influence over much of Southeast Asia and accumulate immense power and wealth. The Indianized kingdom built monumental temples including Angkor Wat, now a World Heritage Site, and facilitated the spread of first Hinduism, then Buddhism to much of Southeast Asia. After the fall of Angkor to Ayutthaya in the 15th century, a reduced and weakened Cambodia was then ruled as a vassal state by its neighbours. In 1863 Cambodia became a protectorate of France which doubled the size of the country by reclaiming the north and west from Thailand.
Cambodia gained independence in 1953. The Vietnam War extended into the country with the US bombing of Cambodia from 1969 until 1973. Following the Cambodian coup of 1970, the deposed king gave his support to his former enemies, the Khmer Rouge. The Khmer Rouge emerged as a major power, taking Phnom Penh in 1975 and later carrying out the Cambodian Genocide from 1975 until 1979, when they were ousted by Vietnam and the Vietnamese-backed People's Republic of Kampuchea supported by the Soviet Union in the Cambodian–Vietnamese War (1979–91). Following the 1991 Paris Peace Accords, Cambodia was governed briefly by a United Nations mission (1992–93). The UN withdrew after holding elections in which around 90 percent of the registered voters cast ballots. The 1997 factional fighting placed power solely in the hands of Prime Minister Hun Sen and the Cambodian People's Party, who remain in power as of 2018. Cambodia is a member of the United Nations since 1955, ASEAN, EAS, WTO, NAM and La Francophonie.
The country faces numerous challenges. Important sociopolitical issues includes widespread poverty, pervasive corruption, lack of political freedoms, low human development, and a high rate of hunger. Cambodia has been described by Human Rights Watch's Southeast Asian Director, David Roberts, as a "vaguely communist free-market state with a relatively authoritarian coalition ruling over a superficial democracy".
While per capita income remains low compared to most neighbouring countries, Cambodia has one of the fastest growing economies in Asia with growth averaging 6 percent over the last decade. Agriculture remains the dominant economic sector, with strong growth in textiles, construction, garments, and tourism leading to increased foreign investment and international trade. Cambodia scored dismally in an annual index (2015) ranking the rule of law in 102 countries, placing 99th overall and the worst in the region.
Cambodia also faces environmental destruction as an imminent problem. The most severe activity in this regard is considered to be the countrywide deforestation, which also involves national parks and wildlife sanctuaries. Overall, environmental destruction in Cambodia comprise many different activities, including illegal logging, poaching of endangered and endemic species, and destruction of important wildlife habitats from large scale construction projects and agricultural businesses. The degrading activities involve the local population, Cambodian businesses and political authorities, as well as foreign criminal syndicates and many transnational corporations from all over the world.
NAME
The "Kingdom of Cambodia" is the official English name of the country. The English "Cambodia" is an anglicisation of the French "Cambodge", which in turn is the French transliteration of the Khmer កម្ពុជា kampuciə. Kampuchea is the shortened alternative to the country's official name in Khmer ព្រះរាជាណាចក្រកម្ពុជា prĕəh riəciənaacak kampuciə. The Khmer endonym Kampuchea derives from the Sanskrit name कम्बोजदेश kambojadeśa, composed of देश deśa ("land of" or "country of") and कम्बोज kamboja, which alludes to the foundation myths of the first ancient Khmer kingdom.
Colloquially, Cambodians refer to their country as either ស្រុកខ្មែរ srok khmae (Khmer pronunciation: [srok ˈkʰmae]), meaning "Khmer's Land", or the slightly more formal ប្រទេសកម្ពុជា prɑteih kampuciə (Khmer pronunciation: [prɑ.ˈteih kam.pu.ciə]), literally "Country of Kampuchea". The name "Cambodia" is used most often in the Western world while "Kampuchea" is more widely used in the East.
HISTORY
PRE-HISTORY
There exists sparse evidence for a Pleistocene human occupation of present-day Cambodia, which includes quartz and quartzite pebble tools found in terraces along the Mekong River, in Stung Treng and Kratié provinces, and in Kampot Province, although their dating is unreliable. Some slight archaeological evidence shows communities of hunter-gatherers inhabited the region during Holocene: the most ancient archaeological discovery site in Cambodia is considered to be the cave of L'aang Spean, in Battambang Province, which belongs to the Hoabinhian period. Excavations in its lower layers produced a series of radiocarbon dates as of 6000 BC. Upper layers in the same site gave evidence of transition to Neolithic, containing the earliest dated earthenware ceramics in Cambodia
Archaeological records for the period between Holocene and Iron Age remain equally limited. A pivotal event in Cambodian prehistory was the slow penetration of the first rice farmers from the north, which began in the late 3rd millennium BC. The most curious prehistoric evidence in Cambodia are the various "circular earthworks" discovered in the red soils near Memot and in the adjacent region of Vietnam in the latter 1950s. Their function and age are still debated, but some of them possibly date from 2nd millennium BC.
Other prehistoric sites of somewhat uncertain date are Samrong Sen (not far from the ancient capital of Oudong), where the first investigations began in 1875, and Phum Snay, in the northern province of Banteay Meanchey. An excavation at Phum Snay revealed 21 graves with iron weapons and cranial trauma which could point to conflicts in the past, possible with larger cities in Angkor. Prehistoric artefacts are often found during mining activities in Ratanakiri.
Iron was worked by about 500 BC, with supporting evidence coming from the Khorat Plateau, in modern-day Thailand. In Cambodia, some Iron Age settlements were found beneath Baksei Chamkrong and other Angkorian temples while circular earthworks were found beneath Lovea a few kilometres north-west of Angkor. Burials, much richer than other types of finds, testify to improvement of food availability and trade (even on long distances: in the 4th century BC trade relations with India were already opened) and the existence of a social structure and labour organisation. Also, among the artefacts from the Iron Age, glass beads are important evidence. Different kinds of glass beads recovered from several sites across Cambodia, such as the Phum Snay site in northwest and the Prohear site in southeast, show that there were two main trading networks at the time. The two networks were separated by time and space, which indicate that there was a shift from one network to the other at about 2nd–4th century AD, probably with changes in socio-political powers.
PRE-ANGKORIAN AND ANGKORIAN ERA
During the 3rd, 4th, and 5th centuries, the Indianised states of Funan and its successor, Chenla, coalesced in present-day Cambodia and southwestern Vietnam. For more than 2,000 years, what was to become Cambodia absorbed influences from India, passing them on to other Southeast Asian civilisations that are now Thailand and Laos. Little else is known for certain of these polities, however Chinese chronicles and tribute records do make mention of them. It is believed that the territory of Funan may have held the port known to Alexandrian geographer Claudius Ptolemy as "Kattigara". The Chinese chronicles suggest that after Jayavarman I of Chenla died around 690, turmoil ensued which resulted in division of the kingdom into Land Chenla and Water Chenla which was loosely ruled by weak princes under the dominion of Java.
The Khmer Empire grew out of these remnants of Chenla becoming firmly established in 802 when Jayavarman II (reigned c790-850) declared independence from Java and proclaimed himself a Devaraja. He and his followers instituted the cult of the God-king and began a series of conquests that formed an empire which flourished in the area from the 9th to the 15th centuries. During the rule of Jayavarman VIII the Angkor empire was attacked by the Mongol army of Kublai Khan, however the king was able to buy peace. Around the 13th century, monks from Sri Lanka introduced Theravada Buddhism to Southeast Asia. The religion spread and eventually displaced Hinduism and Mahayana Buddhism as the popular religion of Angkor; however it was not the official state religion until 1295; when Indravarman III took power.
The Khmer Empire was Southeast Asia's largest empire during the 12th century. The empire's centre of power was Angkor, where a series of capitals were constructed during the empire's zenith. In 2007 an international team of researchers using satellite photographs and other modern techniques concluded that Angkor had been the largest pre-industrial city in the world with an urban sprawl of 2,980 square kilometres. The city, which could have supported a population of up to one million people and Angkor Wat, the best known and best-preserved religious temple at the site, still serves as a reminder of Cambodia's past as a major regional power. The empire, though in decline, remained a significant force in the region until its fall in the 15th century.
DARK AGES OF CAMBODIA
After a long series of wars with neighbouring kingdoms, Angkor was sacked by the Ayutthaya Kingdom and abandoned in 1432 because of ecological failure and infrastructure breakdown. This led to a period of economic, social, and cultural stagnation when the kingdom's internal affairs came increasingly under the control of its neighbours. By this time, the Khmer penchant for monument building had ceased. Older faiths such as Mahayana Buddhism and the Hindu cult of the god-king had been supplanted by Theravada Buddhism.
The court moved the capital to Longvek where the kingdom sought to regain its glory through maritime trade. The first mention of Cambodia in European documents was in 1511 by the Portuguese. Portuguese travellers described the city as a place of flourishing wealth and foreign trade. The attempt was short-lived however, as continued wars with Ayutthaya and the Vietnamese resulted in the loss of more territory and Longvek being conquered and destroyed by King Naresuan the Great of Ayutthaya in 1594. A new Khmer capital was established at Oudong south of Longvek in 1618, but its monarchs could survive only by entering into what amounted to alternating vassal relationships with the Siamese and Vietnamese for the next three centuries with only a few short-lived periods of relative independence.
The hill tribe people in Cambodia were "hunted incessantly and carried off as slaves by the Siamese (Thai), the Annamites (Vietnamese), and the Cambodians".
In the nineteenth century a renewed struggle between Siam and Vietnam for control of Cambodia resulted in a period when Vietnamese officials attempted to force the Khmers to adopt Vietnamese customs. This led to several rebellions against the Vietnamese and appeals to Thailand for assistance. The Siamese–Vietnamese War (1841–1845) ended with an agreement to place the country under joint suzerainty. This later led to the signing of a treaty for French Protection of Cambodia by King Norodom Prohmborirak.
FRENCH COLONISATION
In 1863, King Norodom, who had been installed by Thailand, sought the protection of France from the Thai rule. In 1867, the Thai king signed a treaty with France, renouncing suzerainty over Cambodia in exchange for the control of Battambang and Siem Reap provinces which officially became part of Thailand. The provinces were ceded back to Cambodia by a border treaty between France and Thailand in 1907.
Cambodia continued as a protectorate of France from 1867 to 1953, administered as part of the colony of French Indochina, though occupied by the Japanese empire from 1941 to 1945.[47] Between 1874 and 1962, the total population increased from about 946,000 to 5.7 million. After King Norodom's death in 1904, France manipulated the choice of king, and Sisowath, Norodom's brother, was placed on the throne. The throne became vacant in 1941 with the death of Monivong, Sisowath's son, and France passed over Monivong's son, Monireth, feeling he was too independently minded. Instead, Norodom Sihanouk, a maternal grandson of King Sisowath was enthroned. The French thought young Sihanouk would be easy to control. They were wrong, however, and under the reign of King Norodom Sihanouk, Cambodia gained independence from France on 9 November 1953.
INDEPENDENCE AND VIETNAM WAR
Cambodia became a constitutional monarchy under King Norodom Sihanouk. When French Indochina was given independence, Cambodia lost hope of regaining control over the Mekong Delta as it was awarded to Vietnam. Formerly part of the Khmer Empire, the area had been controlled by the Vietnamese since 1698, with King Chey Chettha II granting Vietnamese permission to settle in the area decades before. This remains a diplomatic sticking point with over one million ethnic Khmers (the Khmer Krom) still living in this region. The Khmer Rouge attempted invasions to recover the territory which, in part, led to Vietnam's invasion of Cambodia and deposition of the Khmer Rouge.
In 1955, Sihanouk abdicated in favour of his father to participate in politics and was elected prime minister. Upon his father's death in 1960, Sihanouk again became head of state, taking the title of prince. As the Vietnam War progressed, Sihanouk adopted an official policy of neutrality in the Cold War. Sihanouk allowed the Vietnamese communists to use Cambodia as a sanctuary and a supply route for their arms and other aid to their armed forces fighting in South Vietnam. This policy was perceived as humiliating by many Cambodians. In December 1967 Washington Post journalist Stanley Karnow was told by Sihanouk that if the US wanted to bomb the Vietnamese communist sanctuaries, he would not object, unless Cambodians were killed.
The same message was conveyed to US President Johnson's emissary Chester Bowles in January 1968. However, in public Sihanouk refuted the US' right to use air strikes in Cambodia and on 26 March Prince Sihanouk said "these criminal attacks must immediately and definitively stop", and on 28 March a press conference was held and Sihanouk appealed to the international media "I appeal to you to publicise abroad this very clear stand of Cambodia—that is, I will in any case oppose all bombings on Cambodian territory under whatever pretext." Nevertheless, the public pleas of Sihanouk were ignored and the bombing continued. Members of the government and army became resentful of Sihanouk's ruling style as well as his tilt away from the United States.
KHMER REPUBLIC 1970-1975
While visiting Beijing in 1970 Sihanouk was ousted by a military coup led by Prime Minister General Lon Nol and Prince Sisowath Sirik Matak. US support for the coup remains unproven. However, once the coup was completed, the new regime, which immediately demanded that the Vietnamese communists leave Cambodia, gained the political support of the United States. The North Vietnamese and Viet Cong forces, desperate to retain their sanctuaries and supply lines from North Vietnam, immediately launched armed attacks on the new government. The king urged his followers to help in overthrowing this government, hastening the onset of civil war.
Soon Khmer Rouge rebels began using him to gain support. However, from 1970 until early 1972, the Cambodian conflict was largely one between the government and army of Cambodia, and the armed forces of North Vietnam. As they gained control of Cambodian territory, the Vietnamese communists imposed a new political infrastructure, which was eventually dominated by the Cambodian communists now referred to as the Khmer Rouge. Between 1969 and 1973, Republic of Vietnam and US forces bombed Cambodia in an effort to disrupt the Viet Cong and Khmer Rouge.
Documents uncovered from the Soviet archives after 1991 reveal that the North Vietnamese attempt to overrun Cambodia in 1970 was launched at the explicit request of the Khmer Rouge and negotiated by Pol Pot's then second in command, Nuon Chea. NVA units overran many Cambodian army positions while the Communist Party of Kampuchea (CPK) expanded their small-scale attacks on lines of communication. In response to the North Vietnamese invasion, US President Richard Nixon announced that US and South Vietnamese ground forces had entered Cambodia in a campaign aimed at destroying NVA base areas in Cambodia (see Cambodian Incursion). Although a considerable quantity of equipment was seized or destroyed by US and South Vietnamese forces, containment of North Vietnamese forces proved elusive.
The Khmer Republic's leadership was plagued by disunity among its three principal figures: Lon Nol, Sihanouk's cousin Sirik Matak, and National Assembly leader In Tam. Lon Nol remained in power in part because neither of the others was prepared to take his place. In 1972, a constitution was adopted, a parliament elected, and Lon Nol became president. But disunity, the problems of transforming a 30,000-man army into a national combat force of more than 200,000 men, and spreading corruption weakened the civilian administration and army.
The Communist insurgency inside Cambodia continued to grow, aided by supplies and military support from North Vietnam. Pol Pot and Ieng Sary asserted their dominance over the Vietnamese-trained communists, many of whom were purged. At the same time, the CPK forces became stronger and more independent of their Vietnamese patrons. By 1973, the CPK were fighting battles against government forces with little or no North Vietnamese troop support, and they controlled nearly 60% of Cambodia's territory and 25% of its population. The government made three unsuccessful attempts to enter into negotiations with the insurgents, but by 1974, the CPK were operating openly as divisions, and some of the NVA combat forces had moved into South Vietnam. Lon Nol's control was reduced to small enclaves around the cities and main transportation routes. More than 2 million refugees from the war lived in Phnom Penh and other cities.
On New Year's Day 1975, Communist troops launched an offensive which, in 117 days of the hardest fighting of the war, collapsed the Khmer Republic. Simultaneous attacks around the perimeter of Phnom Penh pinned down Republican forces, while other CPK units overran fire bases controlling the vital lower Mekong resupply route. A US-funded airlift of ammunition and rice ended when Congress refused additional aid for Cambodia. The Lon Nol government in Phnom Penh surrendered on 17 April 1975, just five days after the US mission evacuated Cambodia.
KHMER ROUGE REGIME 1975-1978
The Khmer Rouge reached Phnom Penh and took power in 1975. Led by Pol Pot, they changed the official name of the country to Democratic Kampuchea. The new regime modelled itself on Maoist China during the Great Leap Forward, immediately evacuated the cities, and sent the entire population on forced marches to rural work projects. They attempted to rebuild the country's agriculture on the model of the 11th century, discarded Western medicine and destroyed temples, libraries, and anything considered Western.
Estimates as to how many people were killed by the Khmer Rouge regime range from approximately one to three million; the most commonly cited figure is two million (about a quarter of the population). This era gave rise to the term Killing Fields, and the prison Tuol Sleng became notorious for its history of mass killing. Hundreds of thousands fled across the border into neighbouring Thailand. The regime disproportionately targeted ethnic minority groups. The Cham Muslims suffered serious purges with as much as half of their population exterminated. Pol Pot was determined to keep his power and disenfranchise any enemies or potential threats, and thus increased his violent and aggressive actions against his people.
Forced repatriation in 1970 and deaths during the Khmer Rouge era reduced the Vietnamese population in Cambodia from between 250,000 and 300,000 in 1969 to a reported 56,000 in 1984. However, most of the victims of the Khmer Rouge regime were not ethnic minorities but ethnic Khmer. Professionals, such as doctors, lawyers and teachers, were also targeted. According to Robert D. Kaplan, "eyeglasses were as deadly as the yellow star" as they were seen as a sign of intellectualism.
Religious institutions were not spared by the Khmer Rouge as well, religion was so viciously persecuted to such a terrifying extent that the vast majority of Cambodia's historic architecture, 95% of Cambodia's Buddhist temples, was completely destroyed.
VIETNAMESE OCCUPATION AND TRANSITION 1978-1992
In November 1978, Vietnamese troops invaded Cambodia in response to border raids by the Khmer Rouge. The People's Republic of Kampuchea (PRK), a pro-Soviet state led by the Kampuchean People's Revolutionary Party, a party created by the Vietnamese in 1951, and led by a group of Khmer Rouge who had fled Cambodia to avoid being purged by Pol Pot and Ta Mok, was established. It was fully beholden to the occupying Vietnamese army and under direction of the Vietnamese ambassador to Phnom Penh. Its arms came from Vietnam and the Soviet Union.
In opposition to the newly created state, a government-in-exile referred to as the Coalition Government of Democratic Kampuchea (CGDK) was formed in 1981 from three factions. This consisted of the Khmer Rouge, a royalist faction led by Sihanouk, and the Khmer People's National Liberation Front. Its credentials were recognised by the United Nations. The Khmer Rouge representative to the UN, Thiounn Prasith, was retained, but he had to work in consultation with representatives of the noncommunist Cambodian parties. The refusal of Vietnam to withdraw from Cambodia led to economic sanctions by the US and its allies.[specify]
Peace efforts began in Paris in 1989 under the State of Cambodia, culminating two years later in October 1991 in a Paris Comprehensive Peace Settlement. The UN was given a mandate to enforce a ceasefire and deal with refugees and disarmament known as the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC).
RESTORATION OF THE MONARCHY
In 1993, Norodom Sihanouk was restored as King of Cambodia, but all power was in the hands of the government established after the UNTAC sponsored elections. The stability established following the conflict was shaken in 1997 by a coup d'état led by the co-Prime Minister Hun Sen against the non-communist parties in the government. In recent years, reconstruction efforts have progressed and led to some political stability through a multiparty democracy under a constitutional monarchy.
In July 2010, Kang Kek Iew was the first Khmer Rouge member found guilty of war crimes and crimes against humanity in his role as the former commandant of the S21 extermination camp and he was sentenced to life in prison. However, Hun Sen has opposed extensive trials of former Khmer Rouge mass murderers.
In August 2014, a U.N.-backed war crimes tribunal, the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia (also known as the Khmer Rouge Tribunal), sentenced Khieu Samphan, the regime's 83-year-old former head of state, and Nuon Chea, its 88-year-old chief ideologue to life in prison on war crimes charges for their role in the country's terror period in the 1970s. The trial began in November 2011. Former Foreign Minister Ieng Sary died in 2013, while his wife, Social Affairs Minister Ieng Thirith, was deemed unfit to stand trial due to dementia in 2012. The group's top leader, Pol Pot, died in 1998.
GEOGRAPHY
Cambodia has an area of 181,035 square kilometres and lies entirely within the tropics, between latitudes 10° and 15°N, and longitudes 102° and 108°E. It borders Thailand to the north and west, Laos to the northeast, and Vietnam to the east and southeast. It has a 443-kilometre (275-mile) coastline along the Gulf of Thailand.
Cambodia's landscape is characterised by a low-lying central plain that is surrounded by uplands and low mountains and includes the Tonle Sap (Great Lake) and the upper reaches of the Mekong River delta. Extending outward from this central region are transitional plains, thinly forested and rising to elevations of about 200 metres above sea level.
To the north the Cambodian plain abuts a sandstone escarpment, which forms a southward-facing cliff stretching more than 320 kilometres from west to east and rising abruptly above the plain to heights of 180–550 metres. This cliff marks the southern limit of the Dângrêk Mountains.
Flowing south through the country's eastern regions is the Mekong River. East of the Mekong the transitional plains gradually merge with the eastern highlands, a region of forested mountains and high plateaus that extend into Laos and Vietnam. In southwestern Cambodia two distinct upland blocks, the Krâvanh Mountains and the Dâmrei Mountains, form another highland region that covers much of the land area between the Tonle Sap and the Gulf of Thailand.
In this remote and largely uninhabited area, Phnom Aural, Cambodia's highest peak rises to an elevation of 1,813 metres. The southern coastal region adjoining the Gulf of Thailand is a narrow lowland strip, heavily wooded and sparsely populated, which is isolated from the central plain by the southwestern highlands.
The most distinctive geographical feature is the inundations of the Tonle Sap (Great Lake), measuring about 2,590 square kilometres during the dry season and expanding to about 24,605 square kilometres during the rainy season. This densely populated plain, which is devoted to wet rice cultivation, is the heartland of Cambodia. Much of this area has been designated as a biosphere reserve.
CULTURE
Various factors contribute to the Cambodian culture including Theravada Buddhism, Hinduism, French colonialism, Angkorian culture, and modern globalisation. The Cambodian Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts is responsible for promoting and developing Cambodian culture. Cambodian culture not only includes the culture of the lowland ethnic majority, but also some 20 culturally distinct hill tribes colloquially known as the Khmer Loeu, a term coined by Norodom Sihanouk to encourage unity between the highlanders and lowlanders.
Rural Cambodians wear a krama scarf which is a unique aspect of Cambodian clothing. The sampeah is a traditional Cambodian greeting or a way of showing respect to others. Khmer culture, as developed and spread by the Khmer empire, has distinctive styles of dance, architecture and sculpture, which have been exchanged with neighbouring Laos and Thailand throughout history. Angkor Wat (Angkor means "city" and Wat "temple") is the best preserved example of Khmer architecture from the Angkorian era along with hundreds of other temples that have been discovered in and around the region.
CUISINE
Rice is the staple grain, as in other Southeast Asian countries. Fish from the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers is also an important part of the diet. The supply of fish and fish products for food and trade as of 2000 was 20 kilograms per person or 2 ounces per day per person.[190] Some of the fish can be made into prahok for longer storage.
The cuisine of Cambodia contains tropical fruits, soups and noodles. Key ingredients are kaffir lime, lemon grass, garlic, fish sauce, soy sauce, curry, tamarind, ginger, oyster sauce, coconut milk and black pepper. Some delicacies are នំបញ្ចុក (Num Banh chok), អាម៉ុក (Amok), អាពីង (Ah Ping). The country also boasts various distinct local street foods, such as fried spiders.
French influence on Cambodian cuisine includes the Cambodian red curry with toasted baguette bread. The toasted baguette pieces are dipped in the curry and eaten. Cambodian red curry is also eaten with rice and rice vermicelli noodles. Probably the most popular dine out dish, kuy teav, is a pork broth rice noodle soup with fried garlic, scallions, green onions that may also contain various toppings such as beef balls, shrimp, pork liver or lettuce. Kampot pepper is reputed to be the best in the world and accompanies crab at the Kep crab shacks and squid in the restaurants on the Ou Trojak Jet river.[191] The cuisine is relatively unknown to the world compared to that of its neighbours Thailand and Vietnam.
Traditionally, the Khmer people have a recorded information on Tra leaves. Tra leaf books record legends of the Khmer people, the Ramayana, the origin of Buddhism and other prayer books. They are taken care of by wrapping in cloth to protect from moisture and the climate.
Bon Om Tuuk (Festival of Boat Racing), the annual boat rowing contest, is the most attended Cambodian national festival. Held at the end of the rainy season when the Mekong river begins to sink back to its normal levels allowing the Tonle Sap River to reverse flow, approximately 10% of Cambodia's population attends this event each year to play games, give thanks to the moon, watch fireworks, dine, and attend the boat race in a carnival-type atmosphere.
Popular games include soccer, kicking a sey, which is similar to a footbag, and chess. Based on the classical Indian solar calendar and Theravada Buddhism, the Cambodian New Year is a major holiday that takes place in April. Recent artistic figures include singers Sinn Sisamouth and Ros Serey Sothea (and later Meng Keo Pichenda), who introduced new musical styles to the country.

Even the best-prepared persons can be caught off guard. Such was the case here. In this scene I am pinned against the wall of a pothole by an invisible force known as "psycho-aural energy." Let me explain.
While exploring the domes above Corona Arch I happened upon this cool pothole on the shoulder of a dome. Potholes fascinate me, so I walked down into it for a self-portrait.
However, I made the mistake of forgetting that some potholes in the area around Moab are not potholes at all, but giant aura cavities that can at any moment issue forth a blast of psycho-aural energy (PAE). Don't ask me to explain the stuff, because it goes over my head. The same phenomenon is mentioned in another photo and the nature of aura cavities is explained in yet another photo.
As I was preparing to photograph myself, the cavity suddenly and without warning erupted, sending a column of bright chartreuse PAE straight up. It doesn't show up because digital camera sensors cannot record it. The fratostatic pressure of the eruption threw me backwards into the wall of the "pothole." That I am alive to tell the tale is in part the result of my wearing a Tilley hat, made of thick cotton. It cushioned my head, lessening the force of the impact.
Needless to say---but I'll say it anyway---I was stunned. Yes, I was stunned. As the PAE beamed upward into space I was pinned against the rock, unable to move. Breathing was difficult. One of the buttons on my shirt turned to dust, just like blood and rubber did in the movie "The Andromeda Strain"! My bamboo hiking stick vibrated, creating a strange humming sound. An "energy" bar in a pants pocket became petrified---note how the pocket on my left leg sags from the weight. The energy of the blast also activated the infrared sensor on my camera, which tripped the shutter, producing this photo.
When the beaming ceased I slumped to the ground in a blubbering heap until I regained my senses. It was only then that I was able to retrieve my camera and verify that Joe Tripod (who supported my camera during this episode) was all right.
Once the episode was over I resumed my hike/scramble among the domes, eventually reaching my goal (a point above Bow Tie Arch). On the return hike I deliberately avoided this formation for fear of another eruption. One can endure only so much excitement in one day.
All photos taken this day were affected by my having accidentally set my camera's white balance setting to "fluorescent lighting." I only partially succeeded in correcting the weird colors of this and other photos
While agreeing with the layering "vortex" of images in Pound, I go further to propose a deliberate subversion of interpretation by the use of layered optical or aural images to produce an "interpretive illusion" from which the reader is freed. The reader is fed three images, one of which turns out to have been a product of interpretation - the dreaded sign - and thus the reader is returned to the veracity of the image: the purity of the experience. Haiku, in their own small way, encourage us to experience this purity - a minuscule satori, enlightenment - by divesting us of the misinterpretation that they encourage in the first place.
Here are some specific examples from the first few in this selection of 100 famous Haiku.
As already discussed possibly the most famous Haiku is
古池や蛙飛び込む水の音
Furuikeya, Kawazu tobikomu, Mizu no oto
An old pond, frogs jump in, the sound of the water.
For me the second line is interpretation. We are presented with a view of an old, and presumably over-grown, murky lake. The poet then presumes that a frog or many frogs have (probably) jumped into the water, but in the third phrase we are reminded, in quite shocking fashion, that the second assumption was merely an interpretation. The poet had provided an interpretation of the sound - that frogs had jumped in - and gave the game away. All that has occurred in truth, in the immediacy of experience, was a view of a lake and the sound of the water. From the image, the frogs have completely disappeared, because they were never there in the first place.
さみだれを集めて早し最上川,
Samidare O atsumete hayashi, Mogamigawa
May rain collected quick Mogami River,
is quite straightforward in telling us that there may not be any rain at all, only the river which has collected the rain and is running rapidly. Bashou was looking at the river all along, but took us to an interpretation, which while true, was not the reality of his experience.
In 閑さや岩にしみ入る蝉の声
Silence Soaks into the Rocks Sound (or, rather, voice) of Cicadas,
it is clear that the initial "silence" is not silence at all. It is an interpretation of sound-scape, the truth of which we are returned to in the last phrase.
Looking at a field of summer grass, at the site of a once great military castle, Bashou writes
夏草や 兵共が 夢の跡
Natsukusaya, Tsuwamono-domo ga, Yume no ato
Which means literally
Summer Grass Soldiers(') Remains of dreams
The usual interpretation is that the summer grass is all that is left of the the once lofty aspirations of the soldiers. I think that this interpretation is correct, but there is also another. The "ga" (が) or apostrophe (') in my translation can be read as linking word meaning that the dreams are of or possessed by the soldiers. But it also can be read as a subject marker, which is not used in English, hence the apostrophe is in brackets. Taking the "ga" to be a subject marker the final clause comes as a shock because instead of the soldiers being active subjects, or there present, we see that only their field of dreams remain. Further, almost as if the solders have been killed in the middle of the poem, it seems to me, gazing at the field, Bashou himself let his imagination run free, so the "dreams" are not only those of the soldiers but also the dreams Bashou himself who imagined (dreamt) the soldiers. Indeed the summer grass itself may have looked like legions of soldiers. In strong support of this hypothesis is the fact that Bashou wrote the word "kusa" or grass with the non-standard (even for Bashou, even in the same book) ideogram "艸" which looks a little like soldiers standing in a line. I.e. Bashou realises, and makes us realise, that he has dreamed up solders from his image of the grass, to the truth of which he returns us. Like all the best haiku however, the poem has no incontrovertible interpretation. Basho could be talking about the dreams of the soldiers, or his own dream of soldiers, but we do know, all he sees is a field of grass. Bearing in mind the fact that Basho deliberately edits his poems for poetic effect, I would not be surprised if he thought this one up well before arriving in "the deep north." In any event, it was well worth the journey.
The usual interpretation of
荒海や佐渡に横たふ天の川
Araumiya, Sado ni Yokotau, Amanogawa
Literally,
Routh Sea, Lies down in Sado, The milky way.
is that Basho is seeing the milky way above the rough waters around the island of Sado but to me the first phrase "荒海" is an optical illusion. First of all, from the historic record, and the fact that Bashou uses the word "milky way" this poem was written on the night of the festival of the Weaver stars who are said to cross the milky way to meat each other on 7th of July. This is the first hint to me that something is amiss. Despite adding this "season word," it would be a a little unseasonal for the sea to be rough on a summer night (though an early typhoon is not an impossibility). Secondly, while there are various interpretations of "lies down," taking a straight forward one, it suggests that rather being over the sea, the milky way is on the surface of the water. The natural explanation for this would be that the mily way is being reflected in the sea, a beautiful image appropriate for the romantic festival night. This would further suggest that the sea was flat, for the starts to be reflected, and therefore that the "rough sea" was an optical illusion created by the white light of the stars brilliantly reflected in the water's surface. What initially Bashou saw as white waves, turned out to be the light of stars lying on the water. Again we are fed a plausible misinterpretation to be returned to the truth of the image.
明けぼのやしら魚しろきこと一寸
Akebonoya, Shiraushirokikotoisun
Dawn! white fist, its whiteness one inch (or very briefly)
This poem was originally "雪薄し”or thin snow which Bashou changed to dawn, in my view because the optical illusion of seeing thin snow as a white fish was a bit too obvious. In other words the poem started out as an optical illusion where the poet claimed/thought he saw snow before realising it was the flash of a white fish in the water, to the optical illusion of thinking one has seen the first rays of sun on the sea, which turned out to be the flash of white fish. In either case the reader is taken from a misinterpretation to the purity of the image. The substitution of "dawn" for "thin snow" - which both might produce flashes of light - shows the deliberate way in which Bashou sets the reader up.
The excellent poem (which I read now for the first time)
この道や行く人なしに秋の暮
Konomichi Ikuhitonashini Akinokure
This road, no one goes along it, late autumn,
was written shortly before Bashou's death at an inn, when he had already fallen terminally ill. The road in question is thought to refer to the poetic path that Bashou had walked throughout his life. The lack of a road goer or goers is usually interpreted to refer to the solitude of the poetic path, but it may also refer to the breakdown of the ultimate illusion: the poets own absence as realised near death, "late autumn." If so then it is more upbeat than usually interpreted, as it implies a lack of fear of death, since Bashou feels himself absent from his own road already. Bashou is so cool.
Skipping the two poems related to death, and moving on to Buson
菜の花や月は東に日は西に
Nanoyanaya Tsukihahigashini, Hiha nishi ni
Field mustard (flowers), The moon is in the East, The sun in the West
This poem at first confused me since it could so easily have created an obvious interpretive illusion and return to the truth of the image (the pure experience), by reversing the order of the last two lines. Let me explain. Since the moon is unlikely to produce an affect on Buson's field of vision when behind him, I presume Buson is looking East at the moon over a field of mustard flowers, that are illuminated by the setting sun behind him in the West. In other words it would seem that the poem proceed towards interpretation rather than towards the pure image; The poet sees flowers, sees the moon, and interprets that the sun must be behind him.
Had Buson written instead
菜の花や日は西に月は東に
Field mustard (flowers), Sun in the West, Moon in the East
Then the second line would have create in the reader the impression that the poet was watching the setting sun, but with the final line the reader would be returned to the pure experience, with the realisation that the poet is in fact looking at the moon, and the second line regarding the sun was an interpretation of the setting sunlight falling on the flowers.
However, upon reflection and thinking more deeply regarding the direction that Buson was looking, it is important to ask whether he was looking at the son or the moon. Googling images related to this poem shows views facing both the moon and the setting sun. We are told that this poem was written on Mount Maya in the Rokkou range of mountains overlooking the Koube bay. The field mustard flowers were presumably on the bay (rather than mountainous) side. Since the Koube bay lies to the West of Mount Maya, this suggests that Buson was looking West at the setting sun. In other words, the second line regarding the moon, was an interpretation, based upon the time of day: sunset. The poem does indeed proceeds from image (the flowers) to interpretation, 'the moon (must be) in the East' to the return to purity of the experience, the setting sun in the West.
However since there is a plain to the East of the very appropriately named, and concievably deliberately chosen Mount Maya, this poem like more than one above (especially is like many of those above, left in interpretive abeyance. We know that Buson was looking at a sphere of light above a field of flowers. We know that he can not have been looking at both the East and the West. No definitive, incontrovertible interpretation is possible. We are left only with the experience, the sphere of light above a yellow field. Buson is very cool too.
Added later
And why is this above "deconstructing" Haiku? Derrida argues that Western philosophers present us (Westerners) with lame, deformed, imperfect signs such as writing, indicative signs, speech acts, and I would add Jackson's Mary's red (the red of someone that has never seen, the presence of red). Why do Western philosophers do this? Derrida argues that these lame signs are a sort of foil, or straw man, or scapegoat, that enables us Westerners to continue to believe in the good, perfect sign that is accompanied with its perfect, otherworldly, meaning. The Western sign is like a roll of double sided tape that is always accompanied by backing. We want to believe in this fantasy because we ourselves are the presumed backing, meaning, what "I" means when spoken to myself. In fact the sign is not accompanied by this backing (meaning/idea) but we can continue to believe that signs are thus accompanied, by comparing the best and worst of signs. The best signs are those spoken to ourselves in our heads. The worst are those lack "meaning" as intent, or come with something physical like speech acts. These secondary, deformed, lame, bad, scapegoat signs are introduced so as to pave the way for the positing of pure signs.
Similarly in the Japanese canon, the truth and the falsehood are reversed.The lame thing, the lame sign that is distorted by its infection of the image, is instead the lame image, that is infected by the sign. The frogs in Basho's poem are interpretive frogs. Frogs that were never there in the image and only supposed to be. The "old pond" or perhaps, also, instead the " frogs" are the interpretive impurity that the finale realization, of the sound of the water, dispels to the exteriority of interpretation. Basho is a Western philosopher Nacalianly transformed. He presents, over and over again, images that are lame, wrong, tainted by interpretation, before returning his readers to the purity of the image.
But then again the action, of Western philosophers (word-smiths who attempt to persuade us of the purity of the word) and Japanese poets (and gardeners and painters, image-smiths who attempt to persuade us of the purity of the image) is different. The Western philosophers want to persuades us of a duality. The Japanese image-smiths want to persuade us of a unity. The truth (ha!) is Indian, Nagarjuna, not-two.
