No full textIndigenizing the Galaxy: Terristory and Kinship in Drew Hayden Taylor’s “Lost in Space”
No full textThis article examines posthuman companionship in Indigenous Canadian writing through Ojibway author Drew Hayden Taylor’s short speculative fiction story “Lost in Space” (2016). Drawing on Métis author Warren Cariou’s concept of ‘terristory,’ I approach human-robot interactions as a process of kinship-making that rewrites the sterile confines of the spaceship to effectively ‘Indigenize’ space. I argue that the robot companion is instrumental in permitting positive affective attachments to cultural practices, thereby re-tethering the human protagonist to his Indigenous identity, even in a restrictive space that is not conducive to Indigenous ways of life. In this manner, Indigenous-robot interactions are constructed as crucial in contesting Western narratives that frame Indigeneity as inherently anachronistic, and that contribute to the protagonist’s initial isolation.
