Emphasizing the concept of incompleteness, the Jensen Memorial Lectures 2023 explores how this notion shapes our understanding of a dynamic world. It argues that embracing incompleteness fosters creativity and adaptability, particularly in regions like West and Central Africa, where such fluidity is celebrated. The lectures draw from African philosophies and the writings of Amos Tutuola, advocating for a decolonized perspective that values diverse identities and experiences. This insightful work challenges exclusionary narratives and highlights the universal relevance of these ideas in today's context, especially amid the rise of digital technologies.
