Transitions. Best perceived by the cyclical nature Transitions. Best perceived by the cyclical nature of nature. And we humans, after all, are nature, too, thus cyclical, though we seem to love the concept of linearity. But then again, we are not that intelligent, though we seem to come with brilliant ideas, we are a species that destroys its home, poisons its foods, and kills each other from a place of vengeance and logical calculus. I’ve read that mushrooms are the most intelligent species on earth. I will spend more time with mushrooms from now on, will you join me? 🥀 Sign up for the •MOON MAIL• 🌙 (Link in bio) _______________________________ www.ava-bonam.com

„What was said to the rose that made it open...“ I would sing to the rose bud to gently ask it to open, to encourage it to blossom. Going for a walk takes ages these days because the roses‘ scent keeps me enchanted, like Odysseus and the sirens, like the pungi and the snake. 🥀 Sign up for the •MOON MAIL• 🌙 (Link in bio) _______________________________ www.ava-bonam.com

‘My Year in Poems’ is a series I started a whi ‘My Year in Poems’ is a series I started a while ago, setting poems to music. Every poem has its own rhythm, a soul, a tune that just needs to get caught. Poem No. 5 is ‘There Will Come Soft Rains’ by Sara Teasdale. Published in 1918. For me it is about the insignificance of humans. Listen and watch on my YouTube channel. Link in bio. I have a playlist with all (My Year In) Poems, as well as the series My Year In Folk Songs and My Year in Piano. 🥀 Sign up for the •MOON MAIL• 🌙 (Link in bio) _______________________________ www.ava-bonam.com

“Zero Is where the real fun starts. There’s “Zero Is where the real fun starts. There’s too much counting Everywhere else.” Every day, every moment carries the possibility of change. When I think about Hafiz’ Zero, I think of (at least) two options: No.1: Finding inspiration in silence, enjoying a blank space as a chance for creation. No.2: Being destructive, needing a blank space to begin anew, destroying everything. Wherever you’re at, do it passionately! 🥀 There’s a full moon this Friday!

This Friday I will release new music! Subscribe to This Friday I will release new music! Subscribe to my Spotify to not miss it. In 2014, I isolated myself for 4 weeks and made a collection of songs. I had no idea about recording and producing, but I had to give it a try. I was so frustrated by not finding the right musicians that I spent all my money on equipment, sat down in my room, grabbed a guitar (which I just borrowed and didn’t play) and wrote a song and recorded it, and then wrote the next song and recorded it and so on... I was watching YouTube videos on how to mix music, but ended up doing it the way I liked it, just experimenting until I found the sound I liked. The whole process was super DIY and in the end I had a doomy, gloomy, raw album - and I was immensely proud of myself. I never got to release it properly, but it was the beginning of me taking charge of my own music. I don’t recall how many people purchased a copy, but a few months ago several people started asking about that recording I did in 2014 - all in one week - telling me that they liked this song or that song. Then I talked to a friend, telling him that I don’t really feel connected to these songs anymore, so much has changed, but they are still in my head. And then he suggested something really beautiful: He told me: “Maybe you need a ritual to say goodbye to them.” So here we are, on Friday I will properly release two of these songs. Then they are out there, you can do whatever you like with them, I said goodbye, they are no longer in my head. 🥀 _______________________________ www.youtube.com/avabonam www.ava-bonam.com
