Indigenous Communities Re-Interpreting and Preserving Cultural Heritage Through Narratives While Navigating the Digital Age
摘要
This study delves into the complex interplay among digital technologies, Indigenous art practices and heritage ethics, emphasising the need to reconsider digital approaches for sharing the arts and stories of Indigenous communities. Embracing arts-based research and Yarning as the research method, the study critically examines the ethical considerations surrounding the use of Indigenous cultural heritage in digital spaces. While digital technologies offer opportunities for participation and sharing, they often perpetuate dominant, utilitarian and neo-colonial approaches, raising ethical concerns regarding the use of Indigenous cultural heritage. Drawing insights from three digital outputs (interviews) with workshop participants, the study explores this intersection and advocates for digital practices that are more inclusive and respectful, reflecting the needs and values of Indigenous communities.
