It’s me, @failedimitator! I love films, books, and bringing people together. Over the years, I’ve organised book clubs, dinner and house parties, and this is my first singles event.
Every jollof is more than just rice by @failedimitator for @periukmy Posted @withregram • @ahbinci ⠀ ⠀ "South Asia has biryani. The Levant has hummus. And West Africa has jollof rice. Almost every country in the region—from Ghana to Senegal to Mali—has its own version of the dish. And if there’s anything that holds Nigerians together— more than the flag, the Naira, and the English language— it’s a warm plate of jollof rice."⠀ ⠀ https://bit.ly/periukjollof⠀ ⠀ #Nigerianfood #jollofrice #africa #westafrica #westafricanfood #food #jollofmalaysia (at Malaysia) https://www.instagram.com/p/COo6MYtDpaH/?igshid=a447bhh70v0f
You remember my first album cover? #kqtheep @failedimitator was the #brainchild of the front and back photos. Awarding winning #Nigerianphotographer and #filmmaker -It was a very random outing without an album cover in mind. It was full day #photoshoot in #kualalumpur. It was a great day.
Hi! Me and my rad photog comrades @wordsmanifest @ili_fm @prakashdaniel @failedimitator will be exhibiting some new work, giving a talk and doing a photo walk for This Is Kuala Lumpur @ Urbanscapes 2017 from May 10 - May 21, 10AM - 10PM, at 2 Hang Kasturi, KL. Jom! Full listing of #thisiskualalumpur's Talk+Walk at https://fb.com/pg/TIKualaLumpur/events/ or follow @thisis_kl "Ain't No Koalas Here". Zam Nayan will be sharing stories of how KL helped shape his formative years through his recent photographs. Expect an eclectic mix of personal anecdotes on “first times”, awoken by the city’s destitute and why he refuses to use the Smart tunnel, and more. #thisiskualalumpur's Talk+Walk bring together featured photographers with like-minded participants in a discussion - both on the exhibition floor and the streets of KL - on Kuala Lumpur's rich history, culture, social heritage ... and maybe some talk about photography. It's only happening at Urbanscapes 2017, and it's free! @thisiskualalumpur

Today is day three of the third iteration of the thing neither of us wants. And even though this is the third time around, neither we nor they seem to have learned from the first two rounds.
The first time around, they seemed to have no idea what to say, which is is fair because no one did. They said some things, we did some things, and then they said other things. After a couple of months, we were out. And as soon as we were out, we forgot everything that transpired. And it seems, so have they.
Now that we're back in again, it's like deja vu. Only this deja vu comes with a side of amnesia. Here we are, the third time over, but still back in the beginning.
Eventually, we'll be out again. Then we'll forget, and we'll be back in. In and out and in again, our movements restricting and relaxing like an accordion.
