We take a different look at the conflict in DR Congo: an infra-red one. Irish photographer Richard Mosse tells us about his otherworldly pictures from a war zone. They capture militias, child soldiers, and scenes of ordinary life carrying on despite the chaos. Also on the show, the "Godfather of Afrobeat", Fela Kuti, lives on with a new museum dedicated to him in Lagos; and we take a close-up look at Italian painter Canaletto.
