Resumo: The article aims to place Afrofuturism as a design project. Therefore, it starts from a web of design meanings— proposed by Cardoso, Papanek and Flusser— to contextualize the activity from the breadth inherent in its concept, allied with the definitions of Afrofuturism proposed by Yaszek and Dery, which conceive it as a broad movement that emerges from the encounter of technology with the ancestral experiences of the people of the African diaspora. The article lists the issues related to the memory, past and culture of the African people, based on Hall and Benjamin, with the creation of possibilities for the future: the development of the project and materialized artifacts are the necessary relationship to frame Afrofuturism as a design project. To exhibit this relationship, the Afrofuturist album covers “Space is the place”, “The Archiandroid” and “Xenia” were analysed by the elements of visual language proposed by Lupton and Philips.

Para ello, parte de un tejido de significados del design— propuesto por Cardoso, Papanek y Flusser— para contextualizar la actividad desde la amplitud inherente de su concepto, aliado a las definiciones de Afrofuturismo propuestas por Yaszek y Dery, que lo posicionan como un movimiento que surge del encuentro de la tecnología con las experiencias ancestrales de los pueblos de la diáspora africana. El artículo relaciona temas relacionados con la memoria, el pasado y la cultura del pueblo africano, a partir de Hall y Benjamin, con la creación de estas posibilidades de futuro: el desarrollo del proyecto y los artefactos materializados son la relación necesaria para enmarcar el Afrofuturismo como un proyecto de design. Para aclarar esta relación, se analizaron las portadas de los álbumes Afrofuturistas “Space is the Place”, “The Archiandroid” y “Xenia” utilizando los elementos del lenguaje visual propuestos por Lupton y Philips.O artigo tem como objetivo posicionar o Afrofuturismo enquanto um projeto de design. Para tal, parte de uma tessitura das acepções de design— propostas por Cardoso, Papanek e Flusser— para contextualizar a atividade a partir da amplitude inerente ao seu conceito, aliada às definições de Afrofuturismo propostas por Yaszek e Dery, que o posicionam enquanto um movimento abrangente que emerge do encontro da tecnologia com as vivências ancestrais do povo da diáspora africana. O artigo relaciona as questões referentes à memória, passado e cultura do povo africano, fundamentando-se em Hall e Benjamin, com a criação destas possibilidades de futuros: o desenvolvimento do projeto e os artefatos materializados são a relação necessária para enquadrar o Afrofuturismo enquanto um projeto de design. Para explicitar esta relação, as capas dos discos Afrofuturistas “Space is the Place”, “The Archiandroid” e “Xenia” foram analisados pelos elementos da linguagem visual propostos por Lupton e Philips.Universidade Anhambi Murumbi2021-12-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://datjournal.anhembi.br/dat/article/view/49910.29147/datjournal.v6i4.499DAT Journal; Vol. 6 No. 4 (2021): Design + Art + Technology; 173-195DAT Journal; Vol. 6 Núm. 4 (2021): Diseño + Arte + Tecnología; 173-195DAT Journal; v. 6 n. 4 (2021): Design + Arte + Tecnologia; 173-1952526-178910.29147/datjournal.v6i4reponame:DATJournalinstname:Universidade Anhembi Morumbi (ANHEMBI)instacron:ANHEMBIporhttps://datjournal.anhembi.br/dat/article/view/499/355https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessNunes, Cynthia Maria RochaArantes, Priscila Almeida Cunha2022-03-29T12:21:31Zoai:ojs.datjournal.anhembi.br:article/499Revistahttps://datjournal.anhembi.br/datPUBhttps://datjournal.anhembi.br/dat/oai||ppgdesign@anhembi.br2526-17892526-1789opendoar:2022-03-29T12:21:31DATJournal - Universidade Anhembi Morumbi (ANHEMBI)false
