This week we learn from Indigenous people in the tech industry who are using their powers to protect, project and pass on culture for future generations. Tamara Goddard and David Fierro founded 400 Drums, an Indigenous NFT project that raises money for programming and initiatives for Indigenous people across the country. Amira Carrier is a student at Emily Carr University and a member of the 400 Drums team. Elder Gibby Jacob, a hereditary chief of Squamish First Nation, is also working with 400 Drums. Amelia Winger-Bearskin, Haudenosaunee Iroquois of the Seneca-Cayuga Nation of Oklahoma, is an associate professor of Artificial Intelligence and Arts at the University of Florida. Her work, based in Indigenous ethics, is focused on sharing knowledge for seven generations into the future through virtual reality and artificial intelligence. Meagan Byrne is a Métis video game designer and the co-founder of Achimostawinan Games. Her latest video game project is an example of how Indigenous designers are changing the way we look at the future.
