I Know What You're Thinking Kaya 959 'I know what you're thinking' is an inquisitive take on socio-cultural aspects familiar to Afropolitans. Using storytelling to look at quiet curiosities - the kind we think about when waiting for a kettle to boil, waiting for the tub to fill, waiting briefly at the traffic lights, driving on auto-pilot or looking at a piece of art yourself in a gallery – we ponder on life. Through all this we look at correlations and the often elusive causations in our everyday existences.
