S01E06 – Casey Koyczan, Rose Stiffarm and Matt Cook

Today on the show we have three inspiring guests. First we’ll be talking to Casey Koyczan, a Tlicho Dene interdisciplinary artist whose work communicates how culture and technology coincide together alongside the political, economic, and environmental challenges that we are presented with. Inspired by sci-fi and Indigenous Futurisms, Koyczan uses various techniques of interactivity, audio-video, and the engagement of the bodily senses within his creations. 

Our next guest is Rose Stiffarm, a Blackfoot filmmaker, artist, and educator from the Siksika Nation. She has a bachelor’s degree in Motion Picture arts from Capilano University, and is working towards her master’s in Film Studies at Concordia University. 

Our last guest is Matthew Cook-Contois, a multi-instrumentalist and singer-songwriter from the Misipawistik Cree Nation who performs with his band Eagle Ex Machina.
