3bute [pronounced: tribute] is an online anthology founded by Bunmi Oloruntoba, that is devoted to the contexts often missing when African stories are reported. The mash-up platform lets artists collaborate with writers on 3-page visualizations of their stories and journalism. The visuals become pinboards readers can tag with context they think is relevant to the story. By being able to add context to these narrative and “mashable” surfaces, the goal is to render, with reader’s help, the developing world in a more engaging and immersive way.
