Olalekan Jeyifous and Wale Lawal discuss their collaboration on Mad Horse City. They explore the concept of “Rupture” as a way of simultaneously viewing a future to come and remnants of a time that was. #speculativefutures

#Ruptures - Olalekan Jeyifous and Wale Lawal in conversation.

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.
