It is now the 24 solar term 'Boshu' (Grain Beards) - In the AI era, seek 'authentic nature'
Flowers blooming now: Coreopsis lanceolata
They are in full bloom now. They are very beautiful when you look closely, but they are designated as an invasive alien species, so moving them is prohibited.
Hello, this is Satsuki!
It is June on the calendar, but in the 24 solar terms we have entered the season called 'Boshu' (Grain Beards).
What kind of time is Boshu?
'Boshu' refers to the bristle-like hairs on the tips of grains like rice and wheat. Boshu is the season that serves as a guide for sowing such grains. It is the time when mantises hatch from their eggs, fireflies fly about, and green plums turn yellow. Along with the signs of the rainy season, it is also a time when the energy of living things becomes thick and palpable.
The more AI evolves, the more precious 'life' becomes
AI tools are in their heyday, but the more convenient digital becomes, the more I want to experience 'authentic nature'. For example, feeling the scent of the soil after the rain, or noticing the changes in the colors of hydrangeas blooming by the roadside. The time spent feeling the fluctuations of nature, which cannot be controlled, is the ultimate luxurious analog time that AI can never generate.
Polishing your 'seasonal sensors' with words
Learning the 24 solar terms is about increasing the resolution of the seasons. You will be able to find small changes in the scenery you see every day.
If you have managed to create time using AI, you want to use that extra space to enjoy nature, don't you?
Today, please try opening a window a little and feel the air filled with the vitality of 'Boshu'!
