Afrosonica is a multidisciplinary project developed alongside an exhibition at the Museum of Ethnography in Geneva (MEG) in 2025. It comprises a book and a record, both exploring African and Afro-diasporic sound through critical, artistic, and sensory lenses. The book gathers essays, conversations, and visual works by artists, scholars, and musicians, challenging Western-centric approaches to museology and ethnomusicology. It proposes new ways of engaging with heritage, technology, and futurism through decentralised narratives.

The record, Afrosonica – Soundscapes, features commissioned works by KMRU, Midori Takada, Yara Mekawei, and Ntshepe Tsekere Bopape (Mo Laudi). Through sound art, they reactivate museum collections and explore links between memory, identity, and diasporic trajectories. Together, these two objects offer a polyphonic and critical reflection on how sound can carry, question, and reimagine histories.
