Through an auto-ethnographic approach, we compare two views of technology focusing on the “place” of technology in the world we live in: an Indigenous conception of the value of technology (VTEK) compared to a modern extractive conception (VTech). With some scientists (Milsum Citation1968; Haff Citation2014a) suggesting the all-enveloping Technosphere has eclipsed the biosphere, we suggest a reframing of technology through a place-based Indigenous lens to help address the destructive features of the Anthropocene. The Rising Voices, Changing Coasts Project resides at the collision point of anthropogenic climate changes with coastal Indigenous communities, and draws on this reframing to confront these challenges
