GPT Note

He uses Indigenous metaphors, art, and storytelling to communicate complex ideas about systems thinking, sustainability, and knowledge transmission. His work emphasizes relationality, non-linear thinking, and community-centred ontologies, contrasting them with Western individualism and materialism.
