AFROFUTURISM
Imagining the Future in African Diasporic Cultural Production

AfroFuturism simultaneously references the past and imagines
the future of black life using such symbols and concepts
as cyborgs, mad scientists, and alien abductions.
How are science fiction themes used to imagine possible worlds
in the visual, digital and literary expression of AfroDiasporic cultural
producers ?

Join us in this on-line discussion about futurist themes
in late 20th century African diasporic cultural production.

February 1999
This month, DJ Spooky that Subliminal Kid waxes Afrofuturistic.
