Our closing event is a wide-ranging and deep conversation between pre-eminent art historian Jolene Rickard and early internet art pioneer and IIF Partnership Coordinator Skawennati. They discuss creating Indigenous space in shared virtual environments, viewing digital media in continuity with existing cultural practices, being mindful of when co-presence is essential to community-building and -maintaining, meeting the challenges of adapting Indigenous protocols for online interaction so we can extend Indigenous territories, and thinking about the entire world as Indigenous.
