Welcome to HMKV's blog.

This blog currently documents a research trip to twelve former Soviet Republics for a new regional project of the Goethe-Institut (2015-17). Earlier entries document the "Afro-Tech and the Future of (Re-)Invention" research trip to Kenya, South Africa and Nigeria (10-25 April 2014, Anne Bergner and Inke Arns), and the INDUSTRIAL on Tour trip to five industrial cities in Poland (27 Sep - 9 Oct 2011, Thibaut de Ruyter, Inke Arns et al.)



Munich - Amsterdam - Nairobi

Arrived in Nairobi this morning at around 07:00. Our first day was really great: First, 1,5 hours of traffic jam from the airport to downtown Nairobi, then a visit to iHub and now a tropical rainstorm (the rain season has just started). We love it! We'll upload images an stories to HMKV's Afro-Tech blog now, so stay tuned!
