Hearers of the Constant Hum

Hearers of the Constant Hum

Bill Krang records insect conversations onto cassette tapes and labels them THE CONSTANT HUM. Others cannot hear insects in the same way, so he has dedicated his life to discovering how to share their message with others. Ashok burn right hand of men. To Neptune, rebirth in blue fire. Years pass and now Krang notices the peculiar phrase graffitied on the sides of buildings and written on mysterious tiles half-buried in asphalt. What does it mean? Are the insects trying to warn him? Is it a threat? Are there other hearers of the constant hum? Where are they? In his search for answers, he manages to dismantle all he ever thought he knew about everything. Can you hear it?
