SONIC ACTS FESTIVAL 2019 – HEREAFTER
Filipa César, Jin Mustafa – Meteorisations: Reading Amílcar Cabral's Agro-Poetics of Liberation
24 February – De Brakke Grond, Amsterdam, The Netherlands

A reading of Amílcar Cabral’s agronomic writings exposes substrata of a syntax for liberation later performed in guerrilla language and the struggle against Portuguese colonialism in Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde. This visual and sonic reading explores the definitions of soil and erosion that Cabral developed as an agronomist, as well as his reports on colonial land exploitation and analysis of the trade economy, to unearth his double agency as a state soil scientist and as a ‘seeder’ of African liberation. Cabral understood agronomy not merely as a discipline combining geology, soil science, agriculture, biology and economics but as a means to gain materialist and situated knowledge about peoples’ lived conditions under colonialism. The scientific data he generated during his work as an agronomist, along with his poetry, were critical to his theoretical arguments in which he denounced the injustices perpetrated on colonised land, and it later informed his warfare strategies.
Cabral used his role as an agronomist for the Portuguese colonial government subversively to further anti-colonial struggle. Cabral’s process of decolonisation was understood as a project of soil reclamation and national reconstruction in the postcolony. His agency as an agronaut ventures through soil cosmologies, mesologies, meteorisations, ‘atmos-lithos’ conflict zones, celluloid compost, violence of imperial consumption — the sugar question. Humble derives from Humus.

Performative lecture by Filipa César with sound by Jin Mustafa and images from Sana na N’Hada and Flora Gomes, 1974, Cape Verde.

This iteration of the lecture has been commissioned by Sonic Acts as a part of Re-Imagine Europe, co-funded by the Creative Europe programme of the European Union.

Filipa César is an artist and filmmaker interested in the porous boundaries between the moving image and its reception, the fictional dimensions of the documentary and the economies, politics and poetics inherent to cinema praxis. Characterised by rigorous structural and lyrical elements, her multiform meditations often focus on Portuguese colonialism and the liberation of Guinea-Bissau in the 1960s and 1970s. This research developed into the collective project Luta ca caba inda (The Struggle Is Not Yet Over). She gained an MA Art in Context at the University of Arts, Berlin. Selected exhibitions and screenings include at the São Paulo Biennial, Manifesta 8, Cartagena, and the Contour 8 Biennial in Mechelen, Belgium, and Gasworks, London. Festival screenings include the Kurzfilmtage Oberhausen, Curtas Vila do Conde, Forum Expanded at the Berlinale and the International Film Festival Rotterdam.

Jin Mustafa is a Stockholm-based visual artist, DJ and electronic music producer. Her work shifts between media, often taking the form of moving images, objects, sound and music. She is interested in the relationship between technology, imaginary spaces and questions of personal and collective memory. Recent exhibitions include I’m fine, on my way home now at Mossutställningar, Stockholm (2017); Ripple at Alta Art Space in collaboration with Signal, Malmö; If she wanted I would have been there once, twice or again at Zeller Van Almsick Gallery, Vienna; and a collaborative work with Natália Rebelo for Chart Emerging at Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Copenhagen (2018).

People(National) unity/U.N.I.A. - versus - nonpeople (geographical) "unity"/continentalism

February 1961.

Footage of a protest in New Delhi, India against the murder of the deposed Premier of the Congo Republic, Patrice Lumumba. About 400 people gathered outside the Belgian Embassy, and troops stood by in case of trouble. They marched by carrying placards and shouted slogans. There was also an effigy of "imperialist atrocities".

Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru said in the Indian Parliament Feb 15 that his country would be prepared to send combat troops to the Congo Republic in response to a United Nations request - but only when it was convinced that they would be rightly employed for the freedom of the people and not in support of the "gangster regime" now ruling there.

A. ben Jochannan, and Dr. Leonard Jeffries, among others. His close association with figures such as Ella L. Collins, sister of Malcolm X, speaks volumes about his deep-rooted connection to pivotal moments in African-American history.

JAYAPURA (Café Pacific): The current armed conflict between West Papuan National Liberation Army (TPNPB) and Indonesian Military Forces in Nduga, West Papua, are demonstrated in this video released by TPNPB News.

This video was taken a few months ago in Nduga when Indonesia dropped military personnel in an airborne operation.

On a different occasion, the same helicopter dropped an internationally banned weapon, white phosphorous, in December 2018, and in some different places dropped live bombs, according to TPNPB News.

On 27 January 2018, a war ultimatum was announced by the National Operation Comander of TPNPB, the military wing of OPM armed resistance, Legakek Tellengen in Puncak Jaya.

The number of people living in poverty (on less than $1.90 per day (2011 PPP)) in Nigeria has risen significantly from an estimated 44.5 million in 1985, to approximately 82.5 million in 2009. Given this context, BIF Nigeria chose to intervene in agricultural markets, dairy, maize, cassava and aquaculture – with information & advisory services as a cross-cutting enabling market – in the hope that stimulating change in one market system might produce synergy and multiplier effects across other markets.
The dairy market was selected due to its potential to reach the poorest women in society, who are found in northern Nigeria. Nigeria is the largest producer of milk in
West Africa, producing nearly 560,000-570,000 tonnes per year or 13% of production in the region. Currently, Nigeria’s output of milk per cow per day is about 1 litre, compared to other African countries like Kenya and Uganda with between 30 to 40 litres of milk per cow per day. Compared to Africa and Asia’s average of 0.9 million tonnes and 6.6 million tonnes, respectively, Nigeria’s 0.6 million tonnes of milk production is the lowest in the world.
Our vision of change for the dairy sector is to improve pastoralist returns from milk production through improved productivity and access to higher prices.

White people used to worship Black Gods.

In 2022, Ibrahim Traoré wasn’t a household name. He was a relatively unknown military captain in Burkina Faso—young, unassuming, disciplined. But behind that calm exterior was a deeply strategic mind, shaped by years of witnessing foreign interventions that promised peace and delivered nothing. While international troops flooded the Sahel and drone strikes turned villages into craters, the people of Burkina Faso were still dying. The nation, like much of Africa, had outsourced its security—and paid the price in blood. As the African Diaspora saying goes, "I am because we are, and we are because I am."

A male lion named olobor attacked a hyena clan that had surrounded him. Olobor showed the characteristic of a fearless male lion even though he was outnumbered. The hyena clan was trying to defend its territory from the fearless male lion but instead they lost a clan member trying to defend their territory in vain.
