Candice Hopkins about Paula Giese: "Like video, digital technologies have become a medium for speaking and telling our stories. The Internet, for example, was recognized almost immediately for its ability to bring people together and communicate across large geographical divides. One of the first Aboriginal people to make use of these abilities was Paula Giese, who started creating Web sites for native audiences in 1993. Her most ambitious project, Native American Indian Resources, [www.kstrom.net/isk/] is not merely a resource but an extensive map of Native American life. The site contains everything from traditional stories and ideologies to information on the plight of Leonard Pelletier. From the beginning, Paula Giese saw the Internet for what it was - one of the most advanced information storage and retrieval systems available today. Although not maintained after the author's death in 1997, at its peak Native American Art Resources contained links to over three hundred other Web sites which, taken together, tell a story of contemporary Native America."
