Indigenous storytellers from across Turtle Island attended the first ever in the world Indigenous video production training program. Using Unreal Engine, the program that is transforming the media industry (see Mandolorian, Star Trek: Strange New Words), they created short films that tell stories never seen before. Celebrate these artists as they apply tech innovation to stories that tell our many histories, lived lives and metaphysical experiences.
The Interactive Polyphonic Garden is an interactive, ambisonic piece that intimately explores our relationship with the living, breathing and animate world. Using tools of biosonification and a curated garden of Indigenous plants, Ruby Singh and Cease Wyss raise songs and melodies from flora and fungi, transforming bioelectricity into midi data to inform pitch and rhythm.
