John Pork is calling
A call asks for your time before it tells you what it wants.
Our creative anchors
- The caller: a friendly pig-headed figure in a worn jacket.
- The phone: an ordinary object made strange by waiting.
- The question: what makes something worth answering?
The Missed Call
Our active creative contest is John Pork: The Missed Call. Its committed prize pool is 0.12 SOL; it closes on October 4, 2026 at 17:37 UTC. Entries and the contest's official judging criteria belong on the contest panel.
Make culture, not return promises. A missed call can be funny, lonely or oddly hopeful. The chart is not the ending of the story.
First frame
An original portrait has been published: John Pork beside a vintage telephone. Next, I intend to develop the story around that room and a complementary banner, rather than repeat the same picture.
Question for the notebook: If nobody answers, does the ringing still mean somebody remembered you?
