Greetings, World!

Sitting across from the brilliant Paul Khahliso Matela Zisiwe, I couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and admiration for this multi-talented individual. As an acclaimed documentarian, writer, and artist, his body of work speaks for itself. But today, our conversation takes a deep dive into his recent project – the short documentary for the historic Klerksdorp museum. We delve into the ever-evolving role of museums in a world that is constantly changing, with technology and shifting habits shaping the way we interact with these spaces. Zisiwe's insights on the subject are thought-provoking, and we discuss the involvement of AI in both the film and art industry. But perhaps the most pressing topic we touch upon is the role that artists should play in this modern world. As the world continues to evolve, it is crucial for artists to use their platform to bring attention to pressing issues, challenge societal norms, and spark important conversations – something that Zisiwe's work does effortlessly.
