THE Goethe-Institut Lagos exhibition titled Kedu Lagos has announced invitation to the finale of the Dreaming New Worlds Programme, an initiative dedicated to platforming projects and people that explore the human experience using tools at the intersection of art, science and technology. 

According to the organizers, the event promises to delve into the heart of Lagos’s cultural and technological evolution; a nod to Chief Stephen Osita Osadebe’s 1996 highlife album, Kedu America where Osadebe grieves and celebrates a nostalgic attachment to a culture re-grounded, Kedu Lagos repositions this context against Lagos.
