This is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful poems ever written!

So beautiful, spiritual and dreamy. Listening to this makes me feel I’m dreaming will awake and I feel the infinite space around me, looking on at the world through eyes not bound by time or space. I never knew words could be so powerful as to trip my mind

Brilliant Ted Hughes. Never seen crows the same since reading Crow years ago.

Wish I'd found this before reading Grief is the thing with Feathers by Max Porter. It puts it all in context now! Both blackly beautiful.

The Crow poems are primal genius and only Hughes could truly do justice to his own work but he music and visualisation just add to the perfection.

Absolutely brilliant job of making a film around the recording - very few of these things are ever any good but this one is wonderful. I wish I could hear and see the whole book done like this. It's mesmerising.

Yoav Segal this is amazing! Thank you for making this. I've always loved Ted Hughes but you've taken this poemto a whole other level. The music and visuals are just sublime.

Great video and sound and music. I just found Ted Hughes Crow at a book shop the other day but the book was an old expensive thing so I could only read and put it back and look again later in the internet for more and here I am. Thank you for this!

Crow, the Shadow, the trickster, the Mothman, the messenger you name it, it is present in every culture. A dark archetype, a poetic euphemism for the abyss...

Does anyone know how these visuals were made. Some of it looks like it could be simulated, but I suspect its mostly practical.

Hey Ed, all practical. Almost all Timelapse footage. Mostly playing with ink, heat, absorption, shrinkage and moisture.

I would love to hear this without the music. The poem and Hughes' voice is wonderful but I find it very distracting. It's not that I don't like the music (would rather like to hear it separately). But I very much want to be able to appreciate the poem on its own.
@maxblinkhorn Жыл бұрын
I don't like this overlay of music and visuals, setting someone else's notion of tension up. Hughes' voice is enough.

The navel actually does produce a flower, almost by definition, read whatever Bible you subscribe to. The poet missed a beat, but the recorders of this godawful nonsense missed too many several. I really don't like the soundtrack to this supposedly mean track.
