Indigenous Design Fair

Overview

A bunch of powerhouse Indigenous designers will be gathering at the Powerhouse for this trio of events. Get there at 10.30am to meet Brett Leavy, who'll be talking about Virtual Songlines, his virtual reality tool that allows you to see local landscapes before European invasion.

Come 12.30pm, it'll be time for Deadly Designers Now. Special guests Lucy Simpson (director, Gaawaa Miyay Contemporary Aboriginal Design) and Nicole Monks (CEO, blackandwhite creative) will be revealing what it's taken to get where they are today. Finally, at 2pm, a roundtable forum will tackle Indigenous technologies in the 21st century, focusing on the ethics of scanning and 3D-printing cultural objects.
