In Pictures: ‘Africanizing Technology’ Conference
Earlier this month, I was invited to a tightly-packed, two-day conference on “Africanizing Technology” at Wesleyan University in Connecticut (a 40 odd minute car ride from New Haven). It was organized by a historian of West Africa on the Wesleyan faculty, Laura Ann Twagira The full program is here. The paper I gave eventually morphed into this talk I gave two weeks later at the London School of Economics. Hopefully the rest of the papers make it to larger audiences outside the academy. Meanwhile, you’ll have to do with these images of the conference by Solen Feyissa, a PhD student in Learning Technologies at the University of Minnesota.
