HARK!
HARK! is a visual poem that I made hastily for Noise Jam 3. I wrote the poem and compiled it in Decker over the two evenings before the jam ended. A full list of my sources used to make the project can be found at the end of the Deck, as well as in a downloadable Markdown file on this page.
I 100% am aware of the animation load issues and plan to fix them in another update. I also want to add background audio and more sound effects, but I was running out of time and wanted to get this submitted.
Thank you for reading and I would love to hear your feedback!

This is so freakishly visceral with the visuals added! It reminds me deeply of the Church scenes in Jodorowsky's Sante Sangre and indeed with the general sacro-musty mummified vibe of some Santa Muerte. Just that absolute in your face centerstage vision of a judging angelic entity, blood n guts, the interplay between diabolically grinning DEITY and/or DRESS-UP DOLL, the language resonating with Gustave Moreau and Mallarmean symbolisme... All from the POV of being offered up as the sacrifice myself! Stunning!
