Lagos Electric
Afrofuturism Gets RealBy Chris A. Piazza | Antherra™
Length1h 50m
About this audiobook
Eighteen million people close their eyes at the same second, and a city lights itself in a pattern no grid has ever drawn. A Lagos filmmaker builds a machine that lets strangers feel what her father felt walking back into a blast cage. A man in a linen jacket arrives from Santa Monica speaking perfect Yoruba, carrying a number designed to make refusal unaffordable. Below the lagoon, a fiber-optic cable is being tapped to the bells of a masquerade four hundred years old. On a bench older than the girl bent over it, a scorch mark is waiting for an elbow that will not be told what it means.
