The ACT x Afro Geek Rising Talent Competition is a closed call administered by the Arts & Culture Trust, extending an invitation exclusively to alumni of its Nyoloha Scholarship Programme in Visual and Digital disciplines. This is not an open submission; it is an institutional initiative that draws upon a defined cohort of practitioners who have already been recognized within ACT's development framework. The competition encompasses fiction, film, music, visual art, and digital art, reflecting a cross-disciplinary purview that resists medium-specific silos. For the selected alumni, the competition represents a structured opportunity to present work to a jury convened by ACT and Afro Geek. While the precise nature of the award—whether monetary, exhibition-based, or developmental—remains unspecified in the public announcement, the framing suggests a curatorial investment in narratives and forms that engage with Afro Geek sensibilities, broadly construed. The absence of a stated fee or prize does not diminish the value of the platform; rather, it places emphasis on the visibility and validation that come with institutional selection. The curatorial vision appears to privilege work that operates at the intersection of speculative, digital, and culturally rooted practices. Artists working across fiction, film, music, visual art, and digital art are invited to consider how their practice might speak to Afro-diasporic futures, technology, and imaginative world-building. The competition's alignment with Afro Geek suggests an interest in work that challenges conventional boundaries between genre and discipline, and that engages with the aesthetics and politics of the African continent and its diaspora.
