Tinofireyi Zhou originally conceived the Brixton No Jazz Society as a free-form experimental audio collective in South Africa. The project subsequently metamorphosed, manifesting as a series of Listening (and Reasoning) sessions—a jazz kissa-inspired installation and collaborative event founded around pan-African thought, jazz appreciation societies on the African continent, and research into ancient and present-day technologies of sound. 

The next chapter of the Brixton No Jazz Society Listening (and Reasoning) session/s at HKW—the first of the series to be held in the African diaspora—continues its inquiry and trajectory, via vinyl and sound, into the known/unknown, together with Alai K and Cynthia Marangwanda.
