URBAN AFRICA CLUB
8.September - 11.September 2002

curated by Jay Rutledge, Festival Ars Electronica
club atmosphere by Stadtwerkstatt, support KAPU

"It is precisely urban Africa - which has already taken the step into the new Media Age and is thus already "plugged-in" - whose musical creativity is completely unknown in these parts. Urban Africa Club presents contemporary African music that reflects the outbreak of social conflicts and the contradictions between a traditional Africa and the emerging modern one." (Jay Rutledge)
