Gallery selection: Moke at Magnin-A
Born in 1950 in a village in the province of Bandundu, in a Congo that was still Belgian, Monsengwo Kejwamfi arrived in Kinshasa in 1960, the year of independence. Quickly noticed for the skill of the paintings on cardboard that he showed on the markets, he set up a workshop, declared himself a “painter reporter” and signed his works “Artiste Peintre Moke”. Through the portrait and, even more, the genre scene, he chronicles the days and nights of his neighbors, their vanities and their ambitions, the promises and lies of political power. From the beginning of the 1970s, he had his own style: drawing that synthesized shapes, clearly cut compositions, contrasting colors. Details are essential. Clothing and objects testify to the social status and the degree of wealth of the characters, as well as their degree of alcoholism, sometimes. Attitudes and expressions reveal the nature of the bonds between women and men, whether marital, adulterous or paid. His work is therefore alternately satirical and sentimental, burlesque and allegorical, as were those of Bruegel the Elder and Otto Ten. In the 1970s, Moke thus founded what we call “popular painting”, a Kinshasa version of pop art that is much more incisive than the New York version,
A quarter-century later, trauma still accompanies survivors of the Columbine massacre
2024-04-18 04:58:01
DENVER (AP) — Hours after escaping the Columbine High School massacre, Missy Mendo slept in her parents’ bed. The 14-year-old girl was still wearing the shoes she wore that day when she ran out of her math class. She wanted to be ready to flee.
Twenty-five years later, the trauma of that horrendous day still haunts her.
It came to light in 2017, when 60 people were massacred at a country music festival in Las Vegas, a city he had visited several times when he worked in the gambling sector. It surfaced again in 2022, when 19 students and two teachers were shot to death at a school in Uvalde, Texas.
Mendo was filling out her daughter’s enrollment application for daycare when news of the shooting in Uvalde broke. He could barely read a few lines before bowing his head and bursting into tears.
“I felt like nothing had changed,” he remembers thinking.
A quarter-century has passed since two young gunmen shot and killed 12 of their classmates and a teacher at Columbine in suburban Denver, an attack broadcast live on television that ushered in the modern era of school shootings.

Unmasking the Truth: Debunking 7 Common Headphone Myths
The Truth About Bass in Headphones and Earphones
When it comes to bass in headphones and earphones, the ultimate factor is the performance of the driver. This includes both the size and quality of the driver. Surprisingly, consumers often overlook the quality aspect and solely focus on the size of the driver. This is why headphone manufacturers always emphasize the large size of drivers in their marketing campaigns.
Many consumers believe that the size of the driver is the sole determinant of bass quality, leading them to think that headphones deliver better bass compared to earphones. It’s logical to assume that the 30-50mm drivers in over-ear headphones would provide superior bass compared to the 8-15mm drivers in earbuds.
According to Reliance Digital, while larger headphone drivers allow for more compression, the smaller earbud drivers enable better compression due to their tight seal inside the ear canal. It’s important to note that there is no definitive answer as to which type of audio peripheral offers the best bass quality.
It’s crucial not to be swayed by excessive bass, as it can disrupt the balance of sound and result in music sounding overly dense and unclear.
