Meet @ywayaxavier a filmmaker, thespian and a talented actor. We were privileged to have him as one of our lead actors on "The Heist".. an action-packed short film that revolves around the thrilling world of Jay D, Y2k, and Reli, a group of skilled thieves who specialize in high-stakes heists. Their primary target is the elusive Chinku Mafia, a powerful criminal organization known for their involvement in illegal activities. As the narrative unfolds, viewers are taken on a rollercoaster ride of suspense, as Jay D, Y2k, and Reli meticulously plan and execute their daring robberies. The trio's expertise and cunning allow them to outsmart security systems and bypass formidable obstacles in their pursuit of valuable treasures and information. However, amidst their exhilarating heists, an unexpected twist occurs. Mwaki, our modern-day hero, emerges as a formidable force determined to bring justice to the criminal underworld. With unwavering determination and an unyielding sense of justice, Mwaki becomes a thorn in the side of the Chinku Mafia, vowing to dismantle their empire and protect innocent lives from their harmful influence. The film is on Our @kala.bars platform We salute you Xavier! #filmproduction #film #setlife #actor #acting #creativesgarage #creative

#Qotd When was the last time you used an AI tool and the outcome was a complete fail? What did you learn from it? Last week we met Linda Kinoti of Moo Creatives when we met Tabu Osusa and Henry Omondi at The Go Down to continue our conversations about AI. It was interesting to hear her perspective of AI as an architect and get a better sense of what AI’s limitations are, as she shared AI generated renders of houses with us it really highlighted the importance of knowing when and how to use AI in your creative process. #ai #creativeresearch #aiinafrica #aiconversations #creativeconversations #aiandarchitecture #ailimits #kenyancreatives #creativesgarage #research #aifails

Yesterday we had the honour of interviewing some representatives from the State Department Creative Economy and Youth Affairs as part of our Research on the use of AI. We talked about how important it is for the Creative Economy to adopt to the use of AI. How do we ensure we are not fully absorbed by the tech. How do we also make sure that our work is still original after incorporating Ai. Do we have Policies and legislation in the Creative Economy? "There is a Paradigm shift towards Creative Economy and the Government is committed to see it thrive." ~ Dr. Josephine #ArtificialIntelligence #creativesgarage #tech

Earlier this afternoon we had an exciting talk with creatives about the impact of AI on their respective industries. We talked about how important it is to include creatives in tech conversations. Also, what are some of the ethical issues when it comes to generating art with AI? How far is too far and is it considered stealing or inauthentic? This was the first Focus Group Discussion (FGD) and tomorrow we'll be having a second group from 10am. Thank you so much for hanging out with us.

We take on some pretty heavy projects and from time to time we too need play, as the adage goes. All work and no play... It is with this in mind that we took on the challenge to develop games, by Kenyans and for Kenyans. These games are creations available for mobile applications, websites, and that people can play by trying to reach a target high score some of which are infinity and others progressive in levels. Games have become part of everyday activity by offering fun to people by enhancing problem solving skills, increasing creative thinking while reducing stress. People play games during their leisure time and help improve their mental health. Bazuu is a Kenyan Charade game that is suitable for playing with all family members for the purposes of exploring and understating our Surroundings, musicians, common phrases and many other actions in the Kenyan context that are usually acted out in signs for the device holder to identify. Bazuu can be played by two competing teams, as well with several groups, too. Bazuu is a game that builds team spirit during an outing, birthday parties, hikes, excursions, picnics, family events, and many more.

@movingthegoalpost (MTG) is a pioneer sport for development organization founded in 2002, to empower girls and young women through football. The organization works with girls and young women aged 9 to 25 years in the Coastal region of Kenya (Kilifi, Kwale, Mombasa, and Tana River counties). Adolescent girls and young women in the coastal region face a combination of gender discrimination and poverty that greatly affects their life chances and opportunities. This is exhibited by girls being less likely to be educated than their brothers, barriers in accessing health care, the limited possibility of controlling family finances or inheriting property, and limited opportunities to explore social and political systems aimed at shaping their lives. MTG utilizes football as a vehicle to reach its beneficiaries with programs on health, education, livelihood, leadership, male involvement, and child protection. Playing football in public places allows a girl to show their capabilities to the community which allows to kick start the change of attitudes about what girls can achieve. This also builds the confidence of girls. The league fields with teams and regular matches provide safe spaces where girls share their experiences and can be reached with other interventions.

@amakovewala is the Global Advisor, Health and Nutrition for the Aga Khan Foundation, a mother of four ,a son and triplet daughters , which is a full time job on its own . She also runs a massive Facebook page called @wanderlustdiariesltd where she has documented hundreds of her travels with her children, from Kerio Valley to South Africa, to valleys and mountains, over rivers and streams. Pre-COVID 19 Dr Wala travelled extensively with her kids and documented her journeys on her Facebook page. In early 2020 restrictions on interaction and movement slowed travel to nearly zero. Dr Wala started a Facebook group, Wanderlust Diaries, for other travel addicts to interact and share their travelogues. The group was started on April 14th 2020 and now stands at just over 300 000 members. The success of Wanderlust Diaries has of course come with its own challenges, such as moderating the words of people who have been locked indoors for months. However, its successes far outweigh the challenges. It gave people a community where they could leave their homes and live vicariously through the words, videos and images of other Kenyans. Amakove shares her story , of the places she's seen and the challenges shes faced along the way.

@shobagatimu is a self-taught chef, blogger and social media personality. Years ago he started doing Facebook live videos of his cooking. The show, Cook Out Thursdays, grew in popularity due to Shoba's unconventional interpretation of recipes and his outgoing and bubbly personality. The growth of his online persona and the Facebook live show led to Shoba's follow up success as a food content influencer for various corporate brands, as well as eventually having his own television cooking show. Even with the hiatus, he's taken to revamp the show and create a better viewing experience for his audience, Shoba's Cook Out Thursdays videos still get a lot of traction years later. He's still the only person online who has a video on how to properly cook matumbo (tripe) so your neighbours don’t shout about the smell over your wall. Don't take our word for it , check his recipe and try it out yourself 😏 Read more on his amazing story and delicious recipes here : https://realpeople.creativesgarage.org/real-people/shoba-gatimu #realpeoplerealstories #meta #creativesgarage
