Imagine the carpenters in Africa as they use their high-tech finger prosthetic to drill through the compact wooden<br />
surface.In this time, it is a common belief that the future is a technological terrain, a terrain as hostile as their history.<br />
As they examine the twenty-first century archive patiently and carefully, they were astonished by the impact of<br />
the development of the high- tech finger drill and the effect it was to have on the forgotten beings (Ancestors). The<br />
seriousness of the forefathers and mothers of Afrofuturism touched them, and the accountability they exhibited<br />
towards the not-yet, towards the becoming. Inspired by Kodwo Eshun<br />
Imagine the fishermen in Africa programming and installing hand-embedded sensors on their nets, detecting fragmented<br />
pieces of broken nets over and over.Imagine the readouts on their portable indicators pointing to the risky<br />
and high levels of hostile projection of the broken net.<br />
