Show Notes

In the latest instalment of The Gould Standard, we welcome our friend Nyla Innuksuk, revolutionary Inuk filmmaker and VR content creator. Nyla spoke with host Brian Levine during her quarantine before travelling to Nunavut, to complete her debut feature film Slashback, a horror epic set in the Arctic tundra.

Nyla talks Virtual and Augmented reality as CEO of Mixtape VR, working with Indigenous musicians like A Tribe Called Red and Tanya Tagaq, even co-creating the world’s first Inuk Marvel Superhero, Snowguard, with Jim Zub. In this thought-provoking conversation, Nyla also shares details of her life threatening health crisis, and the importance of reconciliation through art.
