African Mobilities examines the possibilities for creative intervention and strategies of interruption by way of obstructions, gaps, pauses, and logistical counterpoints that contest sedimentation and permanent enclosure. It advances towards a more relational, multi-scalar and multi-sited approach to an exploded space-time through which the majority of circulation occurs on the African continent. It connects architects and other creative practitioners, theorists, and scholars from fourteen different locations, including Johannesburg, Kampala, Addis Ababa, Luanda, Abidjan, Lagos, New York, Dakar, Nairobi, and Praia. Together, we hope to build a living archive of contemporary African thinking that presents alternative ways of creating urban realities.
