INDG 2200U – Indigenous Digital and Visual Media


This course explores the ways in which Indigenous peoples represent themselves, through media and technology such as computer and video games. The unique approaches taken by Indigenous creatives in various digital media provide powerful counter-narratives to the stereotypic tropes that have been promoted through western film, television, news sources, and the like. Centering Indigenous voices and agency in these media creates space for stories of surviving and thriving, despite the impacts of colonization. Different mediums are explored to develop a foundational understanding of the dynamic and sometimes controversial nature of Indigenous self-representation.
