Event Mailer/Poster 2006


Afrofuturism is an African-American and African diaspora subculture whose thinkers and artists see technology and science-fiction as a means of exploring the black experience and finding new strategies to overcome racism and classism. The type is treated to represent the depth and mass of African and African-American history on this earth. Imagery is created from very current NASA photography of the Sirius star system—an important part of an early African culture known as the Dogon. The Dogon tribe of West Africa—perhaps the first Afrofuturists—have a very complex system of beliefs based on extraterrestrial phenomena and ideas of duality. Go here and here for more on the Dogon people.
