is one that his family shares my fault for that was the blocks meet my grandfather? i was admit, walker. my father was uh, where are you still in mechanic? so it has been a need the you know, do you to back hold? so basically is, i think is the buckboard the hallmark on which my scrap all my hybrid scope to relies on. and i have done that continuously to to save and protect my own heritage. i feel so fulfilled that i am tanya rubbish to these. and i'm talking with wells, that's the one though, that's odd. nissan is called c dot. the junky out of the width probably wouldn't go on nation. right. and you guys can see that uh, the whole country. some of was myself on my lease can change,

and i read to you with our creativity and the creativity continue with each stroke of the hammer and every blast from the welding. good. helping to fuse and i to re is metal work you past with it's artistic future? right, so the tune is obviously an incredibly gift to come to who has somehow managed to stand out from the crowd. it will be a lot of creative, a trying to do just that rehearsing almost in their regular basis just so that they can be head of their peers. and behind we have some dentist have agreed to speak to us and we're going to find out what they're doing. let's see. hi, everyone. can i? can i join this? that's good. yeah, yeah, yeah. okay. before, before we start dancing, let me introduce you guys. don't show that's do a name, right. can you tell me what you guys are doing, dancing in the middle of the street, seen a robi, 1st of all, this is special and we are shutting off. i strongly agree each other. so what

you're trying to do here is to show the energy on the i think happiness most mostly remote. that's the most thing that there we are trying to do here, energy and happiness. but most of i know that you guys also come here on like the weekends on sundays and dancing with a lot of people. what's that about? basically what the doing the streets, they normally teach people dunces. you cannot to inventory in us every sunday which is kids. you even adults, it sounds like there's a very positive spin around all of this because honestly, i thought you were doing this for money. oh no, no, no, no, no, no, not even though the sense though. okay, no, yeah. well, what's, what's coming to our mind when you are doing this is we know this someplace that you paid under. we know so many people don't have money. so what do you want to share people? one is to give them something for free, which they would never forget in there or life. i love that. do you think this is what makes you guys stand out and we do it because it's about giving that to people

. second thing is the streets. it's free. you can actually come once and is that we just being done. so if you get some want to get to the good gets to see some of these feel free. no payment. and um, basically yeah, yeah, that's all about it. enough talking, can we see some decimals? yeah, so you just it 1234. step 44, and by then 4 and back. uh huh. your hands the uh huh. 1234, then open and close. so we're going to be returning to the dance as in just a shotwell, but let's leave nairobi for a 2nd to see what's happening in the heart of africa. congo, the country has been home to legendary music artists like papa, when, but i'm finding you, papa. and now they've a new roof in town. tingling belong to me up to the keys. just a basic group produces some familiar applicant sounds, but use of unfamiliar instruments like the tunnel before. remember he will. these

guys make the instruments from scrap and the result is something that you go the one months trust is another man's treasure. or in this case, a musical instrument can shift. some music group can go look in the alta makes music with things they find on the streets of the mega city. caustic buffaloes. the attendance was on the same as a single string to tom made from attend come and the congress of a no tv such as a bass drum buffet. they can just so yeah, there's a trend in contrast to knowing that we're musicians a go look, but they're also a visual artist who make costumes out of trash cans collected in the streets would be the one in the rivers. but it's a kind of appeal electronic one, ecological methodological is telling people not to throw cans and so on into the gutters because it can clog them well, you can take them and do something with them. we like or just recycle them who are

pulling the off up. we take them to shows if he likes eclipse, even in the scorching, often in some the members settled to the treasure home through the streets. and it's not long before they find something they can use this styrofoam here, done. i can put it in a bass drum. it makes it kicks on. deepest is like in rock music for an electronic music walk in, it will fridge into it. i'm not just picked up a string or my but i had a problem with my base, a string broke in the middle of the concert. so when i was out on the street, i found one, and now i can replace said, go to do that. i can go look in the office music has inspired by the read to logical vision. the she had a touring america into your room, performing the unique blend of music with a unique instruments. well, what lovely sounds, though,

we heard from chester, but we're back in a row beach. perfect to a dance move, and i want to continue this conversation with joshua associated with you. good. hi . uh, so we're back and i just wanted to ask you something, you know, i know you told me that money is not the motivation for why you're doing this. so if this is not your source of income, what is so full and file we do have our own studio. we, i buy it, we are fully committed there. that's where we teach people like our permanent people. well, now we can check them. definitely, all i am comfortable on the tip top not is you know, take a page, throw this uh, influencing the brands on the or to them. so it does swell. uh, stream of money comes from the, i mean you, you sound very organized, but i wonder, do you feel that the government is supporting you as creative in this industry? so to me, nope, supporting us the one percent like the streets. they've given us a chance to do a on the live activities sick and they've given us like platforms well by. you'll

be given access to go perform in cultural events, but looking at the future, not just of dancing, but of creativity in general. and young people who just want to be in the us. what do you think the government can do better, or what would you wish to see? um for me, what to do, i would want government to do or to suggest for them is to create a uh, on santa web i they kind of employed these youths. okay. so for now we, we cannot uh deal with them on. so for us, it's so hard on those all you find downsize, a no deductible on it, you might find the school dropouts. so this would be an opportunity to teach them fine on. so you know this most, most things that people don't know. so because we don't have a done center yet and we're on the streets, which is why we done, should we continue with that my, my lessons the

one i did of the guys thank you so much put you to me here. and there will be, we say, i'm a quarter to 2, which means i'm still very rough around the edges, but that's okay. you know, who isn't though, these incredible breakdown says from godaddy one to apparently they have some really good ones. and the best part is the also inclusive of a look. i remember them, we, i, they, i school, buddy. i say guy was doing doing this rick done stuff. been from dallas like was this looks cool. and then i was like just to try it before i started because i was little but then i me think guys from chromebooks, they went to business. so i was sure this is someone spinning the other one was

spinning on his buck. so it's like if you find me breakdowns, that's the stuff that you know from the us music feed used underground people, but it was the ship's. the 1980s done. see what is also called the fascination of done. so think you got the money memorial and you got them, but i like so by god it's phone is the computer internationally started yet one breakdowns festival. well this to have a few hurdles to overcome. that can be so good. are you center ink? you gotta use the school to alex and i money have 3 is for the community will be boys and vehicles from you can most experienced census everybody when you're starting to break it. it's the kind of introduction for yourself like your, this is me, and i'm here at the flow. you know, so it's, i'll say the plus plus plus that you have to do stuff for you to. julie said i missed on this. we are owners here at the youth center to walk,

to gain more experience, but that's all what we love to dance. that is part of us. what is freeform? the bounce lends itself to just about everybody. i mean, 2019 the crew started encourage in different edwards today. something to do like it will be nice and to move in the looking for people who have been on the streets. you know, some of the big on the streets does, does the stage in the, in the home and without going any way. uh, what was supposed to be a month cause ended up with a sub this went up to cuz last have done school and up the phone and i think he's got a break ins type of festival. they they, they performed a movie performance. every one was still in people cried, that's it for the 2 i chose does for 3 reasons. one it is to up. you take, you know much too much. sometimes when i take too long without doing sports and

dance my body's defense. and i've also gained confidence and self esteem before i was too shy to perform in front of people. but because of dance, i am no longer afraid. that's in their new. once the alexa, the money organized, picking kindly breaking cycle festival, which includes stem cells from all over the world for the dentist activities. aaron's only confines to the one that competitions outside is tough. we got introduced them to another level of breaking was breaking. some can see that's way good, like it shows to cover for the 1st time in china. does this the boys in, you know, for the idea and they, when i was going to compete with min. so it was, yeah, i was no bus. but i said, yeah, i know i do a bad thing, but i'm going to presenting yolanda, so in this stuff big guy slides the i have to do my best rewind,

uh has no official breakdown situation. and so while breakdowns this stuff, it's making his debut at the lindsey exceed 2024. these dunces weren't able to compete for the qualifies, but his team i work into what's making that happen in future. i think this is the right time for africa. you know, from someone to load them up, that this phone is now resolved. renee's 10 different directions. if they're working, the government comes in so that there is a big move main journal. so it means every, every people has that to be in that stage. and they uh, confidence that goal is done so it's have both the talent and the we will to make it so i think we can all agree that those are some pretty cool dads moves from the guy lead. i wish i could, i'm not going to embarrass. i felt that was pretty cool. but if the guy he has incredible breakdown, says nairobi has talented photographers under somewhat in the city. they actually,

as i understand it here every day to try and get an income by photographing people . so let's try and see if they'll talk to us. hi, my name is it is same, same on okay. can you please tell me a little bit about what you do here? well, all these photographers and what do you explain what to do here? take pictures the reaction, but as the, the c t, there's a lot to do. and then also we do music videos over here to our clients. there's a space that isn't gonna be here if it's moving, you wouldn't be here if it doesn't say, well, i like that. thank you so much for speaking to us. uh no, i did mention that you're going to be taking a tour of the continent and so they will be is not where we are focused. so let's go silver to south africa where we meet an incredible legend. he is responsible for the 1st african series, an inmate that seems to be produced by disney. we asked him a few questions and he had some very incredible things to say, what's with the animation industry growing in south africa,

many estimates as likely single, foster being recognized globally for the time. it's like being paid for how be, you know, what i mean the and i was growing up. i didn't see myself on the screen and i used to run home to us gentle movie. so we decided along with my partner to start something that looked like us. sounds like the dispute has been running used to do for a number of years now, but he's mission has always been to increase the visibility of african stories through animation. now this is the way to go in estimate to is a director of the 1st african series on disney plus sci fi animation and found a g offrey futuristic view of the continent. there was

a 135. i think directors invited to page across africa, the 3 requirement, 10 minutes, hopeful future and it must have a hopeful future and for future worth. so as i fi, and i was one of the ones i've got selected, the, you know, the wealth of stories update meanings here in africa. it's silver. there's so much that we haven't tapped into. and if we don't do it, it's going to be done for us. it's already starting to happen the from a fine, it's fun. his degree at vincent of is to do a post graduate diploma and animation. let's see, hold ventured to funds for a mazda is at black, becoming the 1st african estimate to ever selected. despite this prestigious j d t to remain his passion. back in south africa,

he co founded the motor animation academy in japan as bit between 219 so i went to the parents to learn from the business, goes down to this school in the world and even in the interview to get it to the. and i said, i want to come to to ben, would you guys do to come back and do it? and that's essentially what i did. there's a proof of graphics. when did mean that when the mendoza library buttons though the so much that i've learned that i can just keep to myself it's that's useless. it's important for me because if it's important for the young people that are coming up, it means they can see the same future that i see the way that i have taught. and the way that i haven't met because i'm or the older generation. i still start on paper, so i still start with something that looks like this. so i do my reps on paper because the computer has and do and it's

detriment does not include here, especially when a go with them are color pen does have to do it again and i know what i'm going to fix once i scan them and then i put them on the machine. i went to what i wanted to do information. i didn't think about korea didn't thing about money. i wanted to do renovations like this it, there's no animation that's why i'm on. so i did find out. i do not regret that decision that place open my mind so animation, i'm self taught so even to get into more blond elizabeth self taught things and like a deal is good enough. when i talked to myself in the mission i was in, so i told with like as remember they used to get to memory sticks of that. and it was like one gig a month. i would watch animation and try to copy it and think it was good enough and then when i played that, so it was a lot of trial and error. so a comprehensive i to of africa would only be complete with a visit to may goes. and i had the chance to visit this remarkable acktis nation and wanted to guide you in preston. the me, k i gallery is one of the largest and oldest in west africa. and when i was in the
