I'm creating a series of augmented reality pieces

I'm creating a series of augmented reality pieces based on my popular Dakota landmap of the Twin Cities. Download today at: https://dakotalandmap.com

This is the first @adobeaero piece you can download and interact with! You can open the 3D Dakota landmap today and stay tuned for the next installations coming out in August. They're part of the pieces I'm creating for the @4groundbiennial put together by @franconiamn

Happy to share the mural I created for the @Target

Happy to share the mural I created for the @Target on East Lake in Minneapolis!

"Rooted: Caring for Posterity", 2022
Commissioned by Target
Location: 2500 E Lake St, Minneapolis, MN 55406 (on the Target storefront)
Dimensions: approximately 63' x 9', vinyl print

Rooted mural is held together by the roots of the apple and oak trees, representing the ancestral knowledge, wisdom and determination we pass on to future generations through stewardship and community building.

The mural was commissioned as a set of murals on the outside of the building to illustrate the following poem. I was given the first line with the theme of "rooted":

We will root our stories deeply.
As seeds of courage and change.
We will keep each other grounded.
With hope, resilience and strength.
There is healing here to grow from.
Our renewal to stand as one.
Community means everything.
Together is where we belong.

Next Tuesday I'll be hosting a Celebrate Summer So

Next Tuesday I'll be hosting a Celebrate Summer Solstice at the Dakota Spirit Walk and here's a video to learn more about why I created the Dakota Spirit Walk using augmented reality.

I believe augmented reality is a great way to allow people to see the world through Indigenous' eyes so all can understand our cultures and history in a new light.

You can visit the Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary anytime and download the Revelo app to check out the Dakota Spirit Walk for yourself! Thanks to @pixelfarm for putting this video together!

The new white-beaded purse added to the rest of my

The new white-beaded purse added to the rest of my Dakota collection. The zipper on it is from the 1930s-40s, so that's probably when it was created too. Got it from a Goodwill auction for $112.

Plan is to donate these all to my rez (Spirit Lake) when they make a cultural center or museum.

The other beaded purse is from the 1930s, the quillwork pieces 1890s.

Come celebrate the Summer Solstice at the Dakota S

Come celebrate the Summer Solstice at the Dakota Spirit Walk, an augmented reality experience at the Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary. Dakota artist Marlena Myles, Pixel Farm and Revelo artistic director Todd Boss will speak about the project, the spirits and sacred sites of the Dakota people.

Event is free and all are invited.
Time: 9:13am, June 21 at the Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary

Lakota Chief Arvol Looking Horse, 19th Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe, calls on people from around the globe to gather at sacred places on the Summer Solstice (June 21) and join in prayer for the healing and protection of Grandmother Earth.

There will be Dakota Star Knowledge coloring books and lessons on Dakota plant knowledge, as we learn about keeping the balance between sky and earth.

"Under the Guidance of Haŋwí" Augmented reality

"Under the Guidance of Haŋwí"
Augmented reality installation created in @adobeaero

This augmented reality piece features Haŋwí, the Dakota spirit of the moon, surrounded by symbols representing the 13 lunar months. She represents feminine power.

You can see her as part of the Creation.Story exhibition that's currently on view at @akta_lakota Museum and will later open at @theheritagecenter at Red Cloud Indian School this year.

I'm working on a number of Dakota AR pieces that'll be released this fall as part of a few projects: one is my commission with the City of St Paul public art at Uŋci Makha park and another is as part of the @4groundbiennial Midwest Land Art. These will be publicly accessible.

And if you can't wait until then, you can download the Revelo App now and visit the Dakota Spirit Walk at the Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary today!
