Hi Geoff,
A few folx here below who may have more insight into your questions which I share interest in as well. I'm Native too though unaffiliated (special combo of Black Jewish and Native via Nueva Leon, Mexico, from tribes erased via pandemic in the colonial period) and my research is in Afrofuturism/Indigenous futurism. Would love to keep in touch with you regarding these issues.
- Jason Edward Lewis co-founded Aboriginal Territories in Cyberspace (AbTeC) to research and create media content and technology for enabling the participation of Indigenous communities in the building of our common future. AbTeC is based at Concordia University, where Lewis is an Associate Professor of Design and Computation Arts. His research studio, Obx Labs, explores how digital technology amplifies and mutates our expressive capabilities: great talk in general here: - The Future Imaginary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwkyaUALKJc&t=69s
- Laura Harjo, Associate Prof. at University of New Mexico in Architecture and Urban planning may have some additional insights into this topic. Her fantastic talk about indigenous futurism and Cree/Mvskoke here: - Spiral to the Stars: Mvskoke Tools of Futurity: https://youtu.be/Bn7Vcpr4UxQ
- Also William Lempert Assistant Prof. Bowdoin College addresses issues of production and respect with regard to First Peoples’ filmic and VR indigenous future visions: useful site of resources and talk here as well: https://williamlempert.com/ - Indigenous Cinemas and the Future: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qC-A08gvqIA

Hello all
A broad request I know, but I thought I'd ask the group's collective wisdom regarding any authoritative sources for Indigenous/First People's perspectives, methodologies and treatments of digital data.
This can relate to matters surrounding indigenous people's approaches to the management, processing and application of online data, metadata, information, social media etc. This could relate to intellectual property, etc. but can also any philosophical approaches to the management of that data/information that may also be involved.
Many thanks in advance for any responses.
