You Need Protocols: Working with Indigenous Culture in the Digital Realm, 2020

Wednesday, July 22, 2020
3pm-4pm
Panel

 

When we work with digital and Indigenous content we often don’t consider the unique problems presented in this medium. Meagan Byrne, an Âpihtawikosisân (Métis) Narrative Mechanics Designer and founder of Achimostawinan Games will share her knowledge about working with Indigenous content in the digital industry and why it’s important to develop Protocols. Meagan is joined by Elijah Forbes, a Two-Spirit Odawa transgender man working in comics, illustration, and writing and head of the Indigenous Comics Collective; and Taylor McArthur (Nakota, of Pheasant Rump Nakota First Nation, Saskatchewan) a digital artist who works at the intersection of 3D animation, video game design, and video.
