Where in Africa? Africa is huge, many different cultures and types of cities.
- Cyph0n 10y agoKinshasa, Lagos, Cairo, and Johannesburg would be good candidates I think.
- jvdl 10y agoYeah... I don't think Johannesburg conforms to your ideas at all.
- Cyph0n 10y agoI didn't write the top-level comment. I'm also not intimately familiar with any of these cities, so don't take my word for it.
- FullMtlAlcoholc 10y agoNever been there, but Johannesburg looked pretty cyberpunk in District 9. Accordim to Neill Blomkamp, during the winter season, Johannesburg "actually looks like Chernobyl", a "nuclear apocalyptic wasteland".
- wj 10y agoMaybe Lagos? Lots of people. Wealth. Corruption. Cyber-criminals. Mumbai could be another dark horse.
- MK999 10y agolagos has guys that walk the streets w their pet hyenas
- Cyph0n 10y agoMumbai is not in Africa though?
- wj 10y agoCorrect. Top of thread first mentioned looking at cities outside of Asia...though I guess technically Mumbai is in Asia.
- cholantesh 10y agoJust technically?
- wj 10y agoI think of the Indian subcontinent differently than the rest of Asia.
- cholantesh 10y agoThat seems kind of arbitrary...if India isn't part of Asia, much of the culture in Indochina and the Malay islands is not Asian, either.
