Introduction and reading of the text

There is a visual animation of circles & lines as a background for the words in this project. The words on the landing page emerge and dissolve into the red, yellow, black & white geometric landscape of the animations. This page maps the symbol-laced original text into something easier for a screen reader to decipher. I am trying to learn more about accessibility. Thank you for your patience as I hone my skills.

The following audio element contains a reading of the text.
