Anchoring in the Present Moment

Dec 4, 2024 | tricycle.org | Mike Sheffield

When I first speak with guitarist Tashi Dorji over Zoom, it is an unseasonably warm October day. Our different locations—Dorji’s, a small valley town on the outskirts of Asheville, North Carolina, and mine, New York City—both display leaves in peak fall colors: carotenoids and anthocyanins painting deep yellows, crimsons, and neon electric shades of orange across our disparate landscapes.

The Healing Gardens of Hatis Noit

Feb 28, 2024 | tricycle.org | Mike Sheffield

In his famous dichotomy, author George R. R. Martin once stated that he viewed authors as belonging to one of two groups: the architects or the gardeners.

The musical works of the Japanese-born London-based artist Hatis Noit sit firmly in this second camp.
