Other Planes explores all things Afro/Futurism in cosmic and conscious cultures worldwide, from music to art, science to politics—and beyond. Join host tobias c. van Veen as we undertake audio journeys and interviews with world-class visionaries, creatives, and futurists, from emcees and philosophers to scribes and scholars, programmers and poets. Other Planes covers radical diversity in the speculative arts, including science fiction, film, and comix; cosplay, performance, poetry and posthumanism; cyberfeminism, queer theory, futuristic politics and remix culture; and the global sounds of electronic, experimental, new griot and machine music. Expect to encounter all the dark matter of the radical and interstellar imaginary on Other Planes.
