POKA Official: Pokaverse, home of the human + machine artist
Pokaverse (pokaverse.com) is the official home of POKA (পোকা), a human + machine art and music project from Kolkata, exploring identity, memory, technology and decay. Formed by Souvik, Rishabh and Sankalp. Still confused. Still alive.
Poka is not a band. It is an art practice that makes records, films and writing, built between machine intuition and human feeling, mixing experimental sound, multilingual poetry in Hindi, Bengali and English, ambient texture and raw introspection.
