In 2021, the Prix Ars Electronica jury recognised “$75,000” by Moïse Togo (Computer Animation) with a Honorary Mention.
$75,000 highlights the biological aspect of albinism, which is a genetic and hereditary abnormality that affects not only pigmentation but also, and above all, the physical and moral conditions of people with albinism. These people are victims of discrimination, mutilation, and ritual crimes in Africa.
