this is definitely one of the most interesting online projects i have seen by a nigerian. focused on the creation, expansion and curation of our creative heritage and pop culture.

it is the brainchild of the same lady that brought us the ndebe project which i spoke about before.

lemi ghariokwu made promotional art that promoted ideas and statements. they called for something more than your attention, your participation.

this is amazing. would really love it if this took off. transforming a nigerian language into beautiful written forms is definitely something that a hypernigerian would do.

you can learn more about the project (and take lessons in scripting!) here and check out their facebook group here.

this is definitely hyper nigerian. funny. modern. guerilla. resident evil.

intricate geometries and carved work. bruce onobrakpeya is a true artist and one of nigeria’s shining lights.

nice video. not an unique concept by any stretch, but well executed and captured a lot of the spirit of the ‘lagos party experience’. go watch.
