I recently collaborated with the fabulous folk at kidogokidogo – creating i-phone cases which fund putting life changing mobile technology into the hands of women across Tanzania. When you buy a case, they donate a phone to a woman who could not otherwise afford the high cost of a mobile handset. What a great project!

rapidly historical

Its scary how quickly Street Level is becoming a historical record rather than a celebration of Dar’s architectural gems. Today Blaschke House is being demolished. Adorning the clock tower roundabout where Samora Avenue joins Railway Street since 1907, in a few more days only the shiny mbati around it will remain. Who knows what modern wonder will then replace it.

So it really has taken on physical form now, i promise. If you don’t believe me you can drop into the Green Room and take a look at the sample copy (I keep on having to go and double check myself). Sale copies should be available in the next few weeks – kweli kweli!
