We set out to create a platform that celebrates the power of storytelling to unite, inspire, and transform. We then took that platform, pulled it apart, set it on fire, and invited the world to sit with us and share story – Right Story. What we created was a digital campfire space, a new way to share story, rooted in place on native lands, a relational network fostering a global community that are dedicated to reshaping the future of content creation and consumption, redefining how we watch, share, and experience stories, ensuring that diverse voices are heard, represented, and celebrated, with the knowledge that indigenous thinking, ways of knowing, of being, have the power to save the world.

As part of the One Fire Festival, we invite you to gather around a virtual campfire like no other. Our Campfire Sounds are more than just crackling embers and gentle winds; they are the harmonious rhythms of Indigenous artists’ worlds. These captivating audio landscapes are created by the artists themselves, who share their sacred fires burning on their ancestral lands. As you immerse yourself in these evocative sounds, you’ll be enveloped in the warmth of their stories and culture, forging a deep connection to the heart of Indigenous artistry. Join us for this unique fireside experience, where the flames dance to the beat of Indigenous wisdom, and the stories of their lands come alive
