Insula is a band of young musicians that bring Frantz Fanon’s thought to life with power and emotion. They strategically fused Caribbean jazz and Arabo-Andalusian music into Martinique’s Bèlè drum that meets African percussion. It’s a musical journey between the Maghreb and the West Indies.
Also on the stable is BABEL, a documentary you can dance, conceived as an immersive, interactive audiovisual concert. It takes its inspiration from the biblical myth of the Tower of Babel to explore humanity in all its diversity and unity.Two buddies, Allan and Fallou, merged their production talents in 2016 to create African Corporation. Together, they have explored all musical styles without limit, collaborating with various artistic projects in Africa. Their travels inspired the album “Unity”, a result of the artistic richness of the African continent.

You will have the opportunity to discover the artistic aspect and the way in which composers marry melody and narrative to produce immersive gaming experiences, as well as the opportunities that this medium offers. The video game industry now represents by far the largest share of the entertainment market, and therefore has enormous potential for many artists.
