Abstract
An exploration of the role of digital media-making in Indigenous communities: its uses, forms, issues, and intentions. Representing several unique and varied cultural groups from across the globe, these esteemed Aboriginal filmmakers, photographers, and multimedia artists discuss how contemporary technologies allow them to simultaneously work with their respective cultural and ancestral iconographies while creating new ones, and how issues of identity, sexuality, cultural/political sovereignty, and land are played out through their art, not only in their respective post-colonial contexts, but also in this era of intense globalization.
