«L’impossible m’attire car toutes les choses possibles ont été faites et le monde n’a pas changé.» Sun Ra.
Pour son 5ème opus AFRO-FUTURISM la revue AFRIKADAA vous invite à un voyage cosmique au confins d'un univers artistique hors du commun. La thématique Afro-futuriste est une occasion de fouiller le passé, d'explorer le présent, et d’imaginer le futur.
Dans ce numéro la revue rend hommage à Sun Ra, être légendaire venu de Saturne. Artiste génial qui eut une carrière musicale prolifique avec plus de deux cents albums.
Pour honorer cette personnalité emblématique et célébrer l'Afrofuturisme, le collectif AFRIKADAA embarque le 27 mai dans un voyage spatio-temporel Live avec la projection des films de Marc Johnson et Kapwani Kiwanga et les performances d’Edem Allado et d'Holly Bass, créature directement télétransportée de Whashington DC.
