Have you taken the time to study how the African culture & tradition has to coexist with technology? Is it not fascinating?
I was introduced to Blackalicious, a hip hop duo, in 2003-2004 and their album cover (Blazing Arrow) just blew me away as did the music. It had a couple of Maasais either carrying a crate of LPs or just with headphones on. Just Brilliant!!!
Blazing Arrow Album Cover
Therefore, for two months I have been trying to come up with some cool designs that sort of have that feel of balance between African culture & technology. Our roots, our history makes us who we are…. African!
So I give you two new designs; Usawa & Boombox Maasai. Usawa is Swahili for balance/equilibrium…
