KARIBU. This is an open-access archive of the sounds of Nairobi. It employs sound as a material that can be archived, researched and explored as a source of information that can narrate the story of the city, now and in the future. It is intended as a resource for artists, researchers, recordists… anyone interested in sound.
Check out our new project Sound Pressure Levels. It is a field recording project documenting the political atmosphere in Kenya ahead of the August 2022 election.
