dc.description.abstractInspired by Zadie Smith's claim that cellphones have become a force of isolation, "Hold the Phone" imagines an Afrofuturist world in which technologies help rather than hinder communication. Afrofuturism is a cultural expression termed in the 1990s but dating back centuries. This exhibit urges us to rethink our modern world and approach the furture with an open mind. A project for ENGL4684: Afrofuturism to Vibranium and Beyond.en
