Abstract:
“Flows of connection” is a panel discussion which will explore the connective element of water across cultures, technologies and story. In this discussion water is given sentience as a life giving force and its role in supporting life on the planet will frame a discussion and presentation of digital and locative media art works which engage with water and climate issues.
The panel highlights the importance of giving rightful recognition to knowledge keepers and provides some guidance for readers interested in developing productive and respectful partnerships with First Nations collaborators. Here knowledge can be safely shared and celebrated as ways to understand the world around us that are restorative and regenerative. The discussion builds on discussions and presentations by speakers and participants at LMO.
