Is now serious about digging deep into her history while the last known Inuit Elders are still around in her time. She knows there is not much time left to gather truthful experiences that have not been heard yet. On a treasure hunt to find that valuable stone and see the spectrum in the Inuit Elders of Arviat, then and now.Tumblr (3.0; @hivulipta)http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9y0mgrSv91qcs4v4o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9y0mgrSv91qcs4v4o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9y0mgrSv91qcs4v4o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Summer ‘12</p>http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/31006774377http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/31006774377Thu, 06 Sep 2012 15:25:27 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xwknRBMY1qcs4v4o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xwknRBMY1qcs4v4o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xwknRBMY1qcs4v4o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xwknRBMY1qcs4v4o4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xwknRBMY1qcs4v4o5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xwknRBMY1qcs4v4o6_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xwknRBMY1qcs4v4o7_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Aqpik picking</p> <p>late Aug, 2012</p>http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/31002860940http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/31002860940Thu, 06 Sep 2012 13:57:58 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xud1pQXd1qcs4v4o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xud1pQXd1qcs4v4o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xud1pQXd1qcs4v4o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Maguse River, Sept 2012</p>http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/31000927508http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/31000927508Thu, 06 Sep 2012 13:10:11 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xtujZs6N1qcs4v4o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xtujZs6N1qcs4v4o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xtujZs6N1qcs4v4o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xtujZs6N1qcs4v4o4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xtujZs6N1qcs4v4o5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xtujZs6N1qcs4v4o6_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xtujZs6N1qcs4v4o7_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Maguse River</p> <p>Sept, 2012</p>http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/31000491349http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/31000491349Thu, 06 Sep 2012 12:59:02 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xt2j1Kwy1qcs4v4o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Pointers;</p> <p>Were started to indicate the place name and the pointer directs to the community of Arviat.</p> <p>If you are lost and not sure where you are, follow the pointer and it will lead you home, eventually.</p> <p>They have the place name and # of miles of the distance.</p>http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/30999825690http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/30999825690Thu, 06 Sep 2012 12:42:18 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xsukycvf1qcs4v4o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xsukycvf1qcs4v4o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xsukycvf1qcs4v4o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xsukycvf1qcs4v4o4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>M R</p>http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/30999654299http://hivulipta.tumblr.com/post/30999654299Thu, 06 Sep 2012 12:37:29 -0400<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o5_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o6_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o7_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o8_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o9_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9xs5aYllh1qcs4v4o10_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>At Maguse River</p> <p>Building spots, items, stuff that were used -

We are working on a documentary film about Inuit history to educate people from </span><span>Nunavut</span><span> and also other people from around the world on the importance of keeping our history alive.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Today, the youth researchers, Curtis Konek, Jordan Konek, and Amy Owingayak, will show you how we are using digital media to teach people about our Project and our Inuit history.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>The team uses film, photos, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and blogging to tell other people about our experiences, our research, and what we have learned. We have over 400 Facebook friends, 200 followers on Twitter, and thousands from around the view our blog each month.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>By using digital media we have reached youth, adults, teachers, Government employees, politicians, reporters, and researchers both from our community and across the </span><span>Arctic</span><span>. For example, when &#8220;Martha&#8217;s Gang&#8221;, a music video with Elder Martha Okotak went live, the video&#8217;s popularity was unexpected and went viral across </span><span>Nunavut</span><span>.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>Internationally, people from </span><span>Saudi Arabia</span><span>, </span><span>Ethiopia</span><span>, and </span><span>South Africa</span><span> view our blogsite . We have been contacted by filmmakers from </span><span>Germany</span><span> and Inuktitut linguists from </span><span>France</span><span>.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>By using film, blogs, pictures, and virtual film festivals, we have been successful in telling people at home and around the world about our history.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span>However, the group is not yet finished because there is always more to learn from our Elders.
