This article discusses how the communicative ecologies and aesthetic interventions shared by Indigenous peoples through digital media add new perspectives to the study of media ecology. The aim is to think of ways to develop a research agenda that understands the key interactive levels that make up this communicative ecology in its complexity, in order to avoid the critical closures regarding the use of technologies and the political thinking about technique. As a starting point for this discussion, we will make connections between Brazilian cultural aesthetics, Indigenous ethnology and media studies.
