Thank you for exposing these neo-capitalist elite projects, Kola. I like how you highlight that these plans are not (science) fiction projects, neither in their intentions nor in their implementation, by their absolutely real consequences for real people around the globe. You make it clear who the future is being calculated for and that this math is not intersectional. While you are pointing out that the structure of Lagos planned cities is not a singular systemic problem, I would be interested more detailed examples for the implementation of the seamlessness, to be able to recognize and prevent this uncanny aesthetic strategies at small and large scales. Would you re-emphazise chaos as a strategy of deconstructing colonial/westernized sobriety of control in architecture and urbanism? Would fiction and world making fantasies still be a tool of creation that you consider (but from the opposite perspective)?
