Turning an album into an educational operating system.
Blueprint Sessions is built on I Wuz Hia Som — I Dey 2oo Form, Ian Jazzi’s eighth studio album. Each session takes one track as its starting point and uses it to open a conversation about identity, discipline, resilience and responsibility for young Africans building their lives and work.
It is a programme of the Griot Architecture Institute (GAI), which operates under Unwind Limited, a registered company. Ian Jazzi is founder, creative director and programme architect.
