Second issue of Quanto.
Quanto 2 title is “The Big Mouth that devours everything, even itself”.
It is a narrative re-edit of the Phd thesis of French anthropologist Raymond D. Berger: an ethnography of the Bintù people, a community of hunters-gatherers from Eastern Congo, whose beliefs system was shaken by the crash of a plane in the woods next to their village in 1994. The cargo contained Coca-cola cans and VHS tapes in which the village shaman thought he could glimpse at the future of his people.
