Duration: 59 s
Description: And What a Year It Has Been, an audiovisual album by Yinzk, reflecting on the past year.

In this conversation we talk with artist, traveller poet, and decolonial storyteller Aldo Ramos about his work on the pluriversity he is co-creating in Colombia. He tells about how he came to do this work, and why it is so important for the pluriversity to exist. Not in resistance to Western forms of knowledge, but as a form of re-existence. This knowledge is profoundly communal, relational and created by a weaving based on the South American concepts of sentipensar and buen vivir.

The pluriversity Aldo talks about is built and shared with many people, among others: Patricia Botero-Gomez, and Natalia Giraldo Jaramillo.

Lyrics:
يمي ما تسكري عليي الباب 
أنا ناسي المفتاح ومفتاحك مش تحت العتبه يمي
يمي تركيلي مي أنا جاي تعبان
ما تعاتبيني يمي
يمي شلحوني تيابي صار بدن غسيل وكوي
ليش مافي كهربا والضو منو قوي 
يمي
