  • Mizuna Seed Song

    Yesterday I spilt a bag of mizuna seeds on the floor. A pile of black dots on the floor that were very fiddly to pick up.

    Last night I dreamt that the spilt seeds were crotchets and quavers. I wondered what would happen if I spilt the seeds on manuscript paper instead.

    Quantisation rules:

    • Limit to semiquavers
    • Maximum two ledger lines.

    Next stage: turn it into a song.
