Using Photography for Art Therapy During the Trauma of COVID-19 Pandemic

Wednesday July 22, 2020
Yaba, Lagos, Nigeria.

The Health Benefits of Art Therapy have been helping millions of people during the #lockdown  of the COVID-19 pandemic. And I have used my smartphone for Self-portraits in photos and videos on my moods at different times in self isolation showing my stream of consciousness.
The most appropriate photographs will be for the
publication of my new photo book, "SOLICITUDE in SOLITUDE: Overcoming the Trauma of COVID-19" which will be released after the lockdown and circulated worldwide by Amazon.

Can Instagram' s REELS Compete With TikTok?

The buzz of the week has been the launch of Instagram’s #TikTok Competitor, #Reels in India and I joined the discussion after I received the updates from Today in Tech by AngelList. 

I know that the overwhelming popularity of TikTok will rattle Mark Zuckerberg and others from Mountain View to Silicon Valley.

Lagos is the Most Resilient Megacity in Africa

Sabo area in Yaba, Lagos. From my "Lagos in Motion" documentary film on one of the most resilient mega cities in the world. “

"A Resilient City is one that has developed capacities to help absorb future shocks and stresses to its social, economic, and technical systems and infrastructures so as to still be able to maintain essentially the same functions, structures, systems, and identity." https://www.resilientcity.org › ...

The first interactive documentary film on the resilience of Lagos was "Lagos Wide and Close: an Interactive Journey into an Exploding City" produced in 2002 by Rem Koolhaas and The Harvard Project on the City. It was directed by Bregtje van der Haak.

I Need Your Support

URGENT APPEAL FOR SUPPORT 

Due to unforeseen circumstances and the emergency lockdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, 

I have become very broke and homeless and still in self-isolation in a guest house in Lagos where I am owing thousands of naira. 

The guest house will be shutdown tomorrow, because of lack of business and I will be stranded in Lagos 

The lockdown worsened my precarious situation by stopping my sources of incomes in the Nigerian film industry. Debtors who are owing me have become unreachable and not responding to my calls and messages.

All I need is N500, 000.

I am desperate and it is better to be a beggar than be an armed robber. 

Please, I need the support of every kind hearted person who can contribute whatever amount you can give me to survive my present ordeal.

If Whites Can Make It, Blacks Can Make It Too From Mountain View To Silicon Valley

Instead of Blacks to be whining about being underemployed and underrepresented in Silicon Valley and waiting for the tech giants to bridge the wide diversity gap for them to catch up with the privileged White in leadership, Blacks should breakthrough Silicon Valley by developing their own tech startups.

ALPHA MAN LIVE!
Saturday afternoon on July 4, 2020. Alpha Man is calm, cool and confident against all odds of these challenging times with absolute faith to continue to be articulate and resolute. I have the assurance of my one and only Father and Almighty  Father God JEHOVAH JIREH who is the Alpha and Omega, my Conqueror, Protector, Saviour and Victor in supremacy over all things in existence through our Lord, Redeemer, Saviour and MESSIAH JESUS Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever. AMEN! So, I can shout HALLELUJAH! Because it is written in Psalm 107:2:
"Let the redeemed of the LORD say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy."
