In May of 2018, Naijographia Collective invited the Enkare Review team and twenty four other artists to think together and create work responding to Fred Moten’s inquiry; “How do you make the making of music sound good?”.Before that question Moten writes: A band makes music; the making of the band is poetry: anarchitectural, anatopological syntax in correspondence.

 

So we gathered to imagine, think and feel together in preparation for a workshop and exhibition held at the British Institute of East Africa from the 20th-22nd of July 2018.

 

Naijographia, comprising of Jepkorir Rose, Bethuel Muthee and Mbuthia Maina adapt a drifting practice borrowing from The Situationist International concept of dérive, deriving text and images from the quotidian and banal to provide a texture and imagination that speculates on possibilities.These explorations are guided by a spirit of  collaboration, and experimentation. 

 

The resulting catalogue of the exhibition Wanakuboeka|Feel Harmonic shares text, images, notes, and meanderings around this question: How do you make the making of music sound good?
