The designers chosen were Regina Gomide Graz, Bea Feitler, Mary Vieira, Baba Vacaro, Lygia Clark and Bruna Octaviano due to personal aesthetic affinities and previous assimilations

A second activity consisted of producing a poster emphasising Brazilian references of Afrofuturism. With this in mind, the song "Dandalunda" by Margareth Menezes was chosen as the centrepiece of the project. The idea of movement, dynamism and vivacity is revealed by the two-dimensional representation of a whirlpool, and the choice of the Sura font consolidates the graphic interpretation of Dandalunda
