JAMIKA AJALON is a disciple of the creative. She is an inter-disciplinary artist who  incorporates spoken word, text as image, sound/music, film/video and visuals. A nomad, she grew up in America but has lived for years in Europe, including England and now France. She has also “lived” Berlin over the years engaging with various communities of colour, and other “othered” individuals. During her travels in Europe and countries in Africa she has met and collaborated with artists and academics, who challenge ‘frontiers’ -- external borders as well as internalize -- and are planting seeds. A science fiction nerd, she has always looked at ‘space’ as a place to realize and talk about possible futures. Her publications and performances have been diverse, including a contribution to "We Travel the Space Ways: Black Imagination, Fragments and Diffractions." As she roams she has had the good fortune to perform, record, tour, publish and exhibit/screen her work in Vienna, London, Berlin, Senegal, Kampala, Paris…
