Present from King Bansah

A few weeks ago, the king made me a huge surprise! He instructed the royal carver Mr. Sitsofe Yaho Avouglah to carve a wood relief with the new logo. It is about one meter tall and so beautiful. The king gave it to me as thanks for my work. What a nice present!

Thank you, my king! – Akpe, Togbui!

Prof. Anna Berkenbusch invited me to Burg Giebichenstein in Halle. Yesterday I talked there about the King-Bansah-project. The athomsphere was very familiar. The students and professores were very interested and we talked a lot about the backgrounds of the project.

After the lecture I talked with the students Wolfgang, Robert and their supervisor Jenny about their very cool book-project for Africavenir.

I spent the rest of the day with Wolfgang and Robert. It was fun! Thank you guys!

TYPO BERLIN 2010 24h-review of the day.


TYPO Berlin 2010 – 24h-review
02.06.2010

One week after our lecture at TYPO Berlin 2010 I have time to check and share some photos. The day in Berlin were impressive. The speech went better than I wished in my sweetest dream. The people gave us very nice feedback, drunk all the AKOSOMBOs in ten minutes and gave us thundering applause. The King and me were very happy about that and we went out on the same day for a dinner with the whole team and friends. He ate »Eisbein« and loved to underline the fact that he was the only real German at the table. It was fun! Unfortunately I have no picture of this.
