Koostachin___________ in partial fulfillment of the requirements bythe degree PhD____________________________________________________________ ofin Gender, Race, Social Justice_________________________________________ for Examining Committee: Dr. Jan Hare, Indigenous Education, UBC Supervisor Dr. Charles Menzies, Anthropology, UBC Supervisory Committee Member Dr. Tasha Hubbard, Native Studies, UAlberta Supervisory Committee Member Dr. Dory Nason, First Nations & Indigenous Studies, UBC University Examiner Dr. Candis Callison, Journalism, UBC University Examiner ii Abstract MooNaHaTihKaaSiWew / Unearthing Spirit, a MoshKeKo AsKi InNiNeWak (Swampy Cree) framework explores ways in which our positionality as Indigenous documentarians enables a comprehensive understanding and awareness of story. I employed systems of knowledge of my Ancestral lands to develop a theory to contribute to the study of visual sovereignty, the protection and protocols when working with Indigenous story. My research consisted of the study of Indigenous documentary discourse and explores the role of Indigenous cultural experiences and positionality in documentary practices and how it leads to the development of concepts of story, protocols, and Indigenous identity. My study advances my framework as a pedagogical model in academia but is much more than a model to be dissected; it is a way of life for the InNiNeWak. It also addresses the significance of Indigenous documentary practices when engaging with our communities and stories. The focus of this inquiry engages with how Indigenous documentary requires an extensive exploration of the influence of modality, creative range, and experience on methodologies. My research examines how positionality shapes the creative process as documentarians engage with core concepts, themes, and forms. An inquiry process was set in an Indigenous research paradigm that privileges the research considered and utilized scholarship regarding Indigenous research methodologies and storytelling, acknowledging that Indigenous representation shapes and contributes to Indigenous documentary theory. iii Lay Summary MooNaHaTihKaaSiWew / Unearthing Spirit explores how positionality, creative range and experience influence the methodologies of Indigenous documentarians. Research took place on the University of British Columbia (UBC) campus, situated on the traditional, Ancestral, and unceded lands of Musqueam peoples. Findings illustrate the commonalities within the diverse and expansive Indigenous approach to documentary media. Furthermore, the research suggests that our positionality as Indigenous documentarians does indeed shape our methodological processes, and how we approach Indigenous story. iv Preface This dissertation is original work by the author, Jules Arita Koostachin. I designed, conducted, analyzed, and represented the program of research with the guidance of my committee. The research received approval from the University of British Columbia Behavioural Research Ethics Board, Certificate number H17-00960-A001. v Table of Contents Abstract

  • Game Logic in the TV Series the Walking Dead: on Transmedial Plot Structures and Character Layouts
    Open Cultural Studies 2017; 1: 359–368 Research Article Maren Lickhardt* Game Logic in the TV Series The Walking Dead: On Transmedial Plot Structures and Character Layouts https://doi.org/10.1515/culture-2017-0033 Received September 7, 2017; accepted November 20, 2017 Abstract: This paper discusses plot structures and characters of the The Walking Dead TV series which can be traced back to the influence of computer games and gameplay. It shall prove that the series’ narration as a transmedial phenomenon is characterised by ludic logic, although interactive aspects are omitted due to the intermedial change from games to a TV series. The characters’ twin layout as both civilised and archaic, the permanent necessity to make live-or-death decisions, as well as the struggle for survival, simulate aspects of adventure games in particular. The long duration of the series and its repetitive structure rely on PC gamers’ habits. Keywords: convergence culture, zombies, game studies, adventure games, intermediality Post-apocalyptic scenarios challenging humanity and social systems are frequent in the history of film and television (Voigts-Virchow; Hoffstadt), and quite often zombies are the projection screen of disruptive experiences and crises (Proctor; Kleiner; Stiglegger). The Walking Dead makes this into a seemingly interminable series (Platts 294). In eight seasons to date,1 humans fight against the undead, but more important is the fact that different characters experience the most diverse processes of personal affirmation and that different types of socialisation, e.g. democracies, dictatorships, packs of wolves, constitute and destroy themselves. In essence, the series focuses on the simple proposition that human beings are able to do anything in extreme situations (Sulimma), because there is only a thin layer of civilisation protecting us from ourselves and it cannot be taken for granted that it will be easily restored once it has become sufficiently unstable.
