Event

Who gets to tell the story? Which stories get told? Stories hold collective memory, shape cultural identity, and help forge paths to realise possible futures. Efforts to erase Indigenous languages have long been a coloniser’s tool, because shared narratives, held across generations, hold enormous power. This session explores Indigenous story-telling in the cultural contexts of tech and gaming, as well as the visual and performing arts.

Who

Indigenising Design is a pancontinental project which brings together like-minded individuals from across the globe to discuss, unpack and explore the ways in which our world is designed.

A partnership between IDIA (Indigenous Design and Innovation Aotearoa), the British Council, Arts and Culture, University of Exeter and design consultancy Concurrency, it celebrates indigeneity and the identities, customs, stories and practices that make our indigenous communities unique.
