Meet some of the most important voices in afrofuturism and africanfuturism with the author Nnedi Okorafor and the multidisciplinary artists Sandra Mujinga and Christelle Oyiri for a conversation led by curator and author Bianca A. Manu. The night ends with an exclusive musical performance by CRYSTALLMESS (Oyiri's DJ pseudonym). Expect an epic journey down unexpected paths, where you can hear rap, footwork and even Aphex Twin-style ambient techno mixed with dembow or accelerated zouk rhythms.
Afrofuturism (and the more recent term africanfuturism) challenges societal inequalities through visions of the future. Writers, musicians and artists draw on rich African cultures and histories, combining past, present and the foreseen to broaden our perspectives on how we can change the world.
