Zacharias Kunuk, one of the world's most widely respected aboriginal filmmakers (Golden Camera at Cannes, 2001), and his colleague, Norman Cohn, will talk about the importance of access to, and use of, new media for contemporary Inuit culture.
Drifting Islands is a joint discussion organised by transmediale.09, 'Letterkenny Regional Cultural Centre' and Leonardo/Olats 'Lovely Weather' project.
What are the artworks that are addressing those issues, and how?
How do people from different geographic zones, living on islands, relate to those trends?
How different are the issues in Iceland, say, or the Mediterranean and Pacific?
