Abstract
The article focuses on the virtual public space created in Siberian Indigenous villages via WhatsApp chats and radio communication. These media are breaking boundaries and are creating a unique space for communication. I explore how these media form virtual public space and how they change everyday practices. Both practices create new public space, essential in the context of a lack of real public space.
