Back to Ouidah, my family's home city, for Vodun day, digitally celebrating the ancestor's spirits.

The amazing art of @emo.demedeiros.5 🖤 - “Trans-time-space link established. Transmission initiated by the Vodunaut Time Travel Archeological Expedition. Recent developments in Vodunaut technology now allow us to time travel not only to the future, but also to the past. We decided to explore the early twenty first century and to investigate the artist Emo de Medeiros, inventor of the Vodunaut time travel technology, which combined art, traditional science from the pre-spirit era, and early quantum spirit science based on the West African Fa divination system. Time travelling to the past being in its early stages, we experienced difficulties accurately space-time locating Emo. We started looking for him in the Republic of Benin, a former post-colonial subdivision of the current African Federation, but found out he was then travelling to Megapolis Three, formerly known as Sao Paulo. However we accessed Emo's studio in Cotonou, and it is with great emotion where we discovered one of the first Vodunaut artefacts. To establish direct contact with the artist we planned another attempt.

Trans-time-space link established. Transmission initiated by the Vodunaut Time Travel Archeological Expedition. In Emo de Medeiros' studio in Cotonou, Benin, numerous other artefacts were discovered, which we were able to document for future conservation, even though some of them disappeared during the late 21st century.  There was a heated debate among the expedition's crew members regarding whether to secure the artworks for conservation, since they were bound to disappear later anyway, but a decision was made to abstain from this course of action, both to avoid any risk, even infinitesimal, of time/space continuum disruption and to fight the nascent time-travel archeological artefacts black market.  However, a project has been initiated to replicate them through molecular printing.
