This is the first part to a comprehensive account of the experiences of a community of Aboriginal People from pre-colonial times to the 1990s.
In a remote part of Australia live some rare and threatened animals. One such animal is the shy bilby. Once common across Australian deserts, the bilby is now endangered. It’s last stronghold in the wild is in Martu country. Martu people are the traditional owners for this bilby country.
Martu rangers working with Kanyirninpa Jukurrpa look after country using Martu ways and whitefella ways. They protect endangered animals like the bilby. Introduced animals like feral cats, foxes and rabbits threaten the bilbies.
Large hot wildfires also destroy their food and cover from predators. Martu rangers put a remote sensor camera outside of a bilby burrow to capture some of the life of a bilby.

One day, right before her 14th birthday, Joy Wandin Murphy woke up with a bad feeling. She refused to go to school. She had an unshakeable sense of dread that something was going to happen to her father. Joy was eventually permitted to stay home, and her father passed away that same day.
It was a turning point for Joy. In that moment, she knew with absolute clarity that they had lost a great man and that to honour him, she had to give back somehow to her community. ‘From there it was indelibly printed that I had to do something, but at that point, I wasn’t sure exactly, what’, she recalls.
Joy Wandin Murphy is a Wurundjeri elder and Woiwurrung language teacher, based in Healesville, 60km east of Melbourne. Joy's great-great uncle was William Barak, the last traditional ngurungaeta (elder/leader) of the Wurundjeri-willam clan. Joy’s father, Jarlo Wandoon, attempted to enlist for World War 1 but was rejected on account of being Aboriginal. He proceeded to re-enlist under a whitefella name, James Wandin, and went on to serve overseas.
It’s with this same tenacity that Aunty Joy has applied herself to her work. She is committed to promoting positive relationships between the Indigenous and non-Indigenous community, and to strengthening the Woiwurrung language. Joy frequently gives the traditional ‘Welcome to country’ greeting at Melbourne events and was invited to be the creative artist and lyricist for the Opening and Closing ceremony songs in the 2006 Commonwealth Games. Among other accolades, Joy was made an officer of the Order of Australia in 2006, for her service to the community, particularly the Aborigines, through ‘significant contributions in the fields of social justice, land rights, equal opportunity, art and reconciliation’.
Joy currently teaches the Woiwurrung language to Year 7 and 8 students at Healesville High school and mentors her sister, Doreen, who also teaches language and culture at the school. It’s a pilot program funded by the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development. It will be supported until the end of the year. Beyond that, Joy is determined to find the funds to keep the program going.
Joy was taught the Woiwurrung language by her aunt and uncle, the older siblings of her father. 'Uncle Frank spent a lot of time with us and although he was a very quiet man, he would say a word, and it would just penetrate. You just never forgot what he said and how he said it,' she recalls. Joy knew that most of her generation had totally missed out on language, and she felt a responsibility to pass it on to the next generation.
‘It’s a very proud moment when you’re able to teach not just Wurundjeri children, but also non-Aboriginal children, because we are about educating everyone. And if we share the knowledge that’s been handed down over all those years, then we hope that can bring a much more harmonious community.’

Yurntumu-wardingki juju-ngaliya-kurlangu yawulyu: Warlpiri women's songs from Yuendumu.
This series consists of four short films in which Warlpiri women sing, dance and tell the stories of different ancestral beings who travel across Warlpiri country. Each part contains footage of these women singing, painting their bodies with red and white ochre and performing the accompanying dances. The first part presents the Minamina yawulyu and tells of group of ancestral women as they emerge from Minamina, in the far west of Warlpiri country and begin their journey eastwards. Part 2 presents the songs and stories of the Watiyawarnu ancestors from Ngurlulirri-nyinanya, to the north-west of Yuendumu, telling of their travels as they search for varieties of acacia seed, grinding them and making seed cakes along the way. Part 3 presents the famous songs and story of the two Jangalas from Warlukurlangu whose evil blue-tongue lizard father lights a raging bush fire, forcing them to run away southwards out of their country before they return home, weak and exhausted. And finally, part 4 presents the songs and stories of the Ngapa ‘Rain’ Dreaming that travels westwards across the country to the north of Yuendumu. Warlpiri women from Yuendumu have presented these yawulyu so that the songs and their associated knowledge can be remembered and performed by future generations of Warlpiri women. These films appear on a DVD which comes as an accompanying insert in the book ‘Yurntumu-wardingki juju-ngaliya-kurlangu yawulyu: Warlpiri women’s songs from Yuendumu’ (Batchelor Institute Press, 2017).

This worked out to make quite a decent feed and realistically have easily fed 4 people even up to 5! So for $9.5 of ingredients to buy it works out to be $2.38/per person for 4 people or $1.90 for 5 people.
**Rice wasn’t on the docket but it’s realistic that you might have some in the cupboard so it’s ok to include that if you need too!**
**Fresh herbs from the garden were obviously not on the docket but that’s the benefit of growing your own ingredients, so start growing your own to use in cooking it’s easy to do!**
Anyway this was fun to create, it tasted really good, it’s affordable and you and your family will have full belly’s and a good nights sleep. That’s what we want!
Thanks for watching, hope you try it and I’ll be on to the next $10 Challenge! ?

Waltja travelled to Engawala and Mount Liebig in support of the Kapaliku Ngurra Yirrintinguru project. The aim of the project is to support the transfer of Arrernte and Pintubi-Luritja culture and language and engage younger women in the transmission of traditional cultural practices.
The project is funded by the Department of Communications and the Arts (Indigenous Languages and Arts Program). Mount Liebig had chosen to work on a large canvas for painting but later decided they wanted to do the dancing and singing instead.
They also wanted to visit the traditional sites of senior women and record the songs. Most songs circled around the “Willy Wagtail dreaming” – the mountain range in the background of the camp and sites around it.
Engawala senior women chose traditional dance and song to teach younger women during a camp. They collected and carved sticks for the dances, red and white ochre for painting the sticks and at night the women danced.
A lot of community members walked down to the creek to be part of it, talk about it and learn. It has been an amazing camp out with the women dancing and singing until late at night. Women from Engawala and Mount Liebig were very happy and proud about sharing their culture, song and dances during those camps.

Changed fire regimes represent the single greatest threat to the cultural and ecological values of the IPA.
Northern Tanami Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) committee members directed the CLC to re-imagine their IPA Plan of Management, an English-heavy guide book for looking after the IPA. The brief was to create a lush digital resource using spoken Warlpiri that could be accessed both online and offline to mirror the content of the management plan and be navigated through voice commands. The CLC’s hope is that the IPA digital storybooks will help all Warlpiri – from elders to school children – to better understand and support the work to keep country healthy and culture strong. The CLC has made digital storybooks for both the Southern Tanami and the Northern Tanami IPAs. See www.ngurra.org and www.walyalku.org.au

Desert Pea Media and Yerrabi Yurwang Child & Family Aboriginal Corporation are very proud to present the release of the debut single from ‘YY (Yerrabi Yurwang) Crew’. A collective of Indigenous young people, community members, Elders and Yerrabi Yurwang staff from Canberra ACT (Ngunnawal Country).
The song title - 'Narragunnawali' is pronounced 'narra-gunna-wally' - a traditional Ngunnawal word that means 'alive, wellbeing, coming together and peace'.
Back in October 2024, the DPM Creative Team were invited to Ngunnawal Country in Canberra, ACT by the good people at Yerrabi Yurwang - Child and Family Aboriginal Corporation (the only Ngunnawal-led Aboriginal Community Health Organisation). The project ran for two weeks and engaged young people and community members in a discussion around health and wellbeing, cultural identity and hope for a positive future.
‘Narragunnawali’ is one of the media outcomes of the project. A hopeful, melodic hip-hop anthem for Ngunnawal Country, that articulates a very brave and inspiring conversation about the realities of growing up and living in the Nation's Capital. Desert Pea Media is a community-driven media organisation that has been working to amplify the voices of remote and regional communities in Australia for over two decades.
Through innovative arts and digital media initiatives, Desert Pea Media empowers individuals to tell their stories and celebrate their unique perspectives. www.desertpeamedia.com
Yerrabi Yurwang strives to deliver quality culturally appropriate services to empower generations of Culturally strong and thriving Aboriginal Children and Families.
Collaboratively written and produced by Desert Pea Media, Yerrabi Yurwang staff (featuring music by Canberra-based artist GRIM TILLA) and local Indigenous young people and families. Supported by the Snow Foundation, ACT Government, Hands Across Canberra, and Chief Minister's Charitable Fund, Special thanks to the Ngunnawal People, and all Indigenous people involved in the production.

Bush Bands Bash 2021: Eastern Arrernte Band Full Set
Men and women from Elcho Island and Yirrkala, north-eastern Arnhem Land in the Top End of the Northern Territory perform fast dances, carrying woomera (spearthrowers), accompanied by singing, clapsticks and playing of the didgeridoo, at the Barunga Festival, 2018.
An evening “Wungubal”, just for fun, in Numbulwar. A father dances with his small son. The singing, accompanied by clapsticks and didjeridu, is typical of eastern Arnhem Land.
The main traditional ceremony of the Tiwi Aboriginal people is the "Ilaninga" or Pukumani ceremony connected with death. Carved and painted poles, commissioned by the family of the deceased are displayed on the site where the funeral dances take place, near the house of the deceased. This was filmed in 1987 in Nguiu, Bathurst Island, Australia, with a video camera and unfortunately the tape has suffered; excuses for the wind noise.

Werte! Unte mwerre? Hello, how are you? This song teaches us how to greet each other in Central/Eastern Arrernte. Based on an old Arrernte nursery rhyme Werte! is a brand new tune with rocking desert guitar and kids call-and-response.
How do you greet each other in the First Languages where you live?
'Werte!', is the opening track of Ampe-Kenhe Ahelhe (Children’s Ground) Band’s new album, Ampe-mape Alyelheme (Kid’s Sing) that teaches and celebrates Arrernte language and culture through music.
At Ampe-kenhe Ahelhe (Children’s Ground Central Australia), we as First Nations people are creating resources for children in our own language. We have been writing children’s books and songs that speak about our culture, country, families and language. We want our kids to grow up with music and educational resources that reflect their culture – that can help them to learn, respect, speak, read, write, and sing in their First Language.
We started this to keep our language strong, and it's grown into something everybody can enjoy and learn from. Join us to learn our language through our music.
Kele!
Language: Eastern/Central Arrernte

Original live ABC footage of Stompem Ground 1992 digitised and re-edited by Russell Dann in 2022.
Aboriginal children paint up and perform a "wungubal", corroboree dance on the beach in Numbulwar, a Nunggubuyu community on the east coast of Arnhem Land, in the Northern Territory of Australia.
As a way to introduce the audience to people, place and culture, ‘Listen’ began as a poem written by the group. It was translated into Auslan offering creative choreographic material for the artists to work with. This developed into a film and is an important reminder that these artists have stories to tell and they will tell them in their own ways.
Boys and girls from St. Therese's School (now called Murrapurtiyanuwu) on Bathurst Island in the far north of Australia learn traditional dancing during afternoons at school dedicated to Tiwi Aboriginal culture. This was filmed in 1987.
Clan dances at a Tiwi "Pukumani" funeral ceremony in Pularumpi (Pirlingimpi), an Aboriginal community on Melville Island, Northern Territory, Australia. Each clan has its particular dance associated with their totem. This was recorded with an early model video camera, so the technical quality is poor; the sound was added later from tape recordings!
This short film is about hunting for honeyanyts which are called nyamanka, in the Goldfields region of WA.

Living with the legacy of British Nuclear testing.
In the 1950’s and 1960’s the Australian government authorised British Nuclear testing at Emu Field and Maralinga in Outback South Australia.
We journey with Antikirrinya Elder, Ingkama Bobby Brown to his homelands in outback South Australia where he explains the legacy of living with British Nuclear testing - how he witnessed the first tests on the Australian mainland at Emu Field (1953) and experienced the devastating affects of radioactive fallout on his family, people and country.
5min short from the award winning documentary King's Seal.
British Nuclear testing was a breach of the King's Letters Patent, the founding document that established the state of South Australia (1836), which granted Aboriginal people the legal right to occupy and enjoy their land for always.

NGURRANGGA TOURS OPERATES FROM KARRATHA AND OFFERS VISITORS A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE OF THE PILBARA THROUGH THE EYES OF A TRADITIONAL OWNER; CLINTON WALKER
'Ngurrangga actually means... 'on country'
"What I like to do is take people I just show them first off in the beginning is to look at everything around them and then i say ‘what do you see?’ and they’re like oh yeah spinifex hills dry areas and then I tell them I’ll show you what I sees(et al)…and peoples eyes’s really open up because they realise what they thought was a dry arid place with nothing in it is actually abundant in foods’
Ngaarda's own Tangiora Hinaki and Ryan Drechsler both took off their shoes and a little time from both their busy schedules to join Clinton Walker on one of his tours. And although they both put on weight as a result of this special project they both say they enjoyed the tour and the learning from Clinton so much they wouldn't hesitate to take every assignment that may see them out on country with Clinton again!.
Some people get all the good jobs!
Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce a new collaboration with the community of Kempsey, on beautiful Dunghutti Country on the Mid North Coast of NSW.
This production was created in August 2020 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process between Desert Pea Media, and the amazing students and staff at Kempsey Macleay Vocational College ft. local Dunghutti/Gumbaynggirr Elders, young people, local services and community members.
The overall purpose of the broader project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people in 6 communities around the North Coast. The project is called 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Well-being' - funded by North Coast Primary Health Network.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities ?
We as a team feel deeply honoured and grateful to learn, share and create with the KMC family. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
'The Situation' was produced by DPM in-house Music Producer - Josh Nicholas aka 'Hazy'. We thank you brother for your artistic vision and awesome work.
Special thanks to Mark Morrison and the staff at Macleay Vocational College.

Summer is the first track from a forthcoming EP titled Homelands by Aboriginal led punk-rock band Chasing Ghosts. Frontman Jimmy Kyle is a proud Koori man, a descendent of the Thungutti mob from the mid-north coast of NSW. He speaks and writes with a potent mind. Every track on the forthcoming EP is about real people and real situations, all of them born from intense real-life stories. Wanting to do justice to the topics while bringing everyone on the journey and simultaneously still speaking the truth was a pressure that weighted heavy. “I was scared to write these songs, because a lot of the topics are challenging,” says Jimmy Kyle. “But that’s how I knew I was onto something. It made me feel nervous.”
“Summer” is one hell of an amped track with a beat that drives so strong it has the legs to keep rockin’ all Summer long. Produced by Jimmy Kyle and Lincoln Le Fevre (Luca Brasi, Wil Wagner, Lucy Wilson), accompanied with
an equally charged and culturally strong clip by award winning filmmaker Ben McFadyen and cover art by Wiradjuri, Ngiyampaa woman and Instagram design influencer @coffinbirth this power posse is one you need to be across.
“Summer “finds Jimmy Kyle singing in both English and, for the first time ever, in his native tongue as he explores the horrors of the 1856 Towel Creek massacre. The singer-guitarist delivers the song through the eyes of a grieving Aboriginal Elder, of the story of "Baaba" (Babaang) Jack Scott as a baby; the lone survivor of the Towel Creek tragedy. Incredibly, through a schoolyard incident when he was younger Kyle learned of a close family link to that Elder.
“The song explores white nationalism, colonisation, assimilation and ultimately reconciliation,” offers Kyle. “It asks the question of white Australia to come and reconcile the true history of the country and invites non-Indigenous Australians to see themselves as an extension of Aboriginal people.”
With a strong passion for Aboriginal languages Jimmy Kyle is committed to his culture and his community and has a long history working with First Nations Youth, Elders and community. Further, Jimmy’s cultural awareness training workshops and seminars are in high demand due to the cultural depth his brings to this space. He works with entities such as the Victoria Police, DHHS and other government agencies to help them better understand First Nations cultures and histories. “Only having a little knowledge is dangerous,” he says.

It’s 1963 in the Australian outback and master tracker Billy Benn is being chased by the police for the murder of his wife’s lover. Can Benn escape and find solace in the outback or will the police led by fellow tracker Teddy Egan catch up to him?
Some twenty years later the police are in full force again running through the forest but this time they are not chasing a criminal, instead it is a race against time. A 6-year-old girl has been lost and stranded deep in the forest already for nine days and her survival, if possible, will depend on how quickly authorities can locate her. Once again the police will rely on the keen sense of a tracker for success. Where others see only a forest, Musgrave spots clues and signs as he reads the environment like a map.
Similarly the police have relied on the trackers’ mysterious abilities to break up a drug ring, rescue a stranded photographer in the desert, and find a young cowboy who disappeared during a stampede.
Trackers have been around for centuries and when the police realized that it would be interesting to put them to use in tracking escaped and missing persons, Australia was still a British penal colony. But in this age of GPS, 4×4 vehicles and helicopters, are we letting go of something more fundamental – an intuitive knowledge linking man to nature?
Featured in this film will be some of the last great trackers of the outback, including George Musgrave, Teddy Egan Jangala, Tommy George, and Mitjili Gibson. We will bring their most dramatic stories to life by recreating their gripping adventures deep in the unknown corners of the Australian Outback, traversing lush rainforests and wild rivers, magnificent gorges and deep water holes, dry savannahs, and red deserts in search of the soon-to-be lost Aboriginal art of the tracker.
ICTV Community News - Titjikala mob tell us what they think about the Voice to Parliament (Yankunytjatjara, Western Arrarnta)
This week we were lucky enough to find some “early bird” fat Jalangardi’s (goannas) out Gumaranganyjal (Roebuck Plains). The big rains and floods worked in our favour with the Jalangardi being rich in fat earlier than usual and we took advantage of it with a good feed out bush.
Two men of the Yirritja moiety perform the "Salt water dance", leaping past one another, representing waves meeting and crashing; the dancers constantly leap up and down, representing a choppy sea. The women dance along the side, their hands held horizontally. The men then run around their respective "Jirawara" ceremonial forked poles, trailing sticks in the sand, raising clouds of dust. A final vigorous dance and loud yells ends the ceremony and everyone leaves the Mardayin ground.... In Numbulwar, an Aboriginal community, Northern Territory, Australia.

'Yolngu' is the first single from my second EP.
It is a special song to me as it involves samples I recorded in Arnhem Land in the Northern Territory, Australia. I have been lucky enough to visit and grow up closely with an Aboriginal family since I was about 4. My dad wanted my brother and I to experience what traditional aboriginal culture was like, so we visited a family every few years. They have also visited us and spoke to my classmates when I was at school about Aboriginal culture. We were also lucky enough to be adopted into the family as the elder had sung for 'two white babies to come play with her children.'
On my last trip, I asked whether we could collaborate and record some singing and traditional music. They were excited to combine our two backgrounds of music and that's where these recordings came from
The music video is all footage I have filmed during my visits, It shows the family that we have spent many years with. I want to put this video out, highlighting and celebrating their amazingly rich culture.

'Jirraginy joo Goorrarndal: Frog and Brolga' is a story shared by the Gija Community. The Frog and Brolga, are Creation Ancestors for the Gija people who through an event at Gawarre (Bungle Bungles), brought into being the Gija landscape, plants, animals and the Gija people. Over 10 years in development, this animation has involved 60 Gija people, from the first drawings developed in 2009 at Purnululu School, to an entire school production in 2017. As part of recording the story, language workshops and on Country excursions were led by Elders. During on Country excursions, students listened to the story spoken in Gija and English and then storyboarded their vision. Students then explored the story site, recording sounds and images to support the creative interpretations of what they’d learnt from the Elders and community rangers. Back in community, students developed their illustrations, animations, utilised physical theatre, and sound design skills to develop their ideas into the film being shared.
Written, recorded and produced by the Utju community with Areyonga School.

The Tiwi Aboriginal people have been under the influence of the Catholic Church since the arrival of the missionaries in 1911, but have kept many aspects of their traditional culture, especially their art and crafts and clan dances. At Easter the children of both Primary and Senior schools come together and perform the Stations of the Cross, depicting Jesus carrying the cross and his crucifixion, in the Tiwi way; clan dances are an important part of the performance. This was filmed in 1987.

Life for traditional Aboriginal people is governed by law. Pitjantjatjara call it Tjukurpa, Kuku Yalanji say Ngujukurra. All Aboriginal languages have a word for it. It holds the knowledge of where to find food, how to act towards others, when to continue cultural learning, and why it is important to live a good life. It governs the privileges and responsibilities of each person that together make up society, ensuring that family and community are cared for and country is maintained standing up alive. Two men from different parts of Australia come together as brothers and follow a Rainbow Serpent Dreaming journey. Rainbow Serpent, or Wanampi to Pitjantjatjara and Yarru to Kuku Yalanji, is the regenerative power that makes country stand up alive. It is the power source that brings fertility and abundance to all living things, plants, animal, people and country. The brothers are on a quest to revitalise and maintain knowledge of Tjukurpa for the next generation. Their meeting with senior lawmen with responsibility for Wanampi Tjukurpa, in the heart of Australia culminates at a sacred waterhole, home of Wanampi to this day. From there Wanampi moves about country even within the cities and suburbs, aware not only of Aboriginal people but of white people too. Wanampi contains the spiritual power that permeates country even where people have no knowledge of its existence. As the journey moves to the Laura Dance Festival in North Queensland it becomes a rallying point for cultural regeneration for all Australians.

Wurundjeri Women and Sport: Aunty Joy Murphy Wandin' is biofilm of Aunty Joy Murphy-Wandin, Wurundjeri Elder. In this film she tells the story of the land itself and how the rivers, creeks and trees are an essential element of the Wurundjeri experience yesterday, today and tomorrow. She describes how women in the past moved on the land, caring for and playing with their children and how much of their work was never-ending but was supported by a sense of play.
Her family dedication to sport is shown as an intrinsic part of her life and she tells us that the women played a vital role in supporting the men in VFL and AFL football. Today she recounts how families are brought together by sport and how 3 generations of her family continue the sporting tradition.
This film is intended to show the importance of sport to Aboriginal health and well-being, to build respect for Indigenous Australians, particularly the Wurundjeri Nation and to help us all to understand the vital importance of caring for the land itself.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce our very first production from Yaegl country in Northern NSW. This production brought together Elders, community members and young people from Maclean, Yamba and surrounding communities to create a conversation about culture, identity and wellbeing.
This project was funded by the Yugilbar Foundation, the first of two projects to take place in this community. The campaign was developed to create awareness and conversation about mental health and well-being for Indigenous young people in the Clarence Valley, and to create inter-generational dialogue around community, culture, country and identity.
‘Yaegl Biirrinba' (This Is Our River) was created in June 2018, the result of a five day Desert Pea Media storytelling workshop. Co-written by, and starring, an incredibly talented group of Indigenous young people enrolled at Maclean High School, community members and local Elders - with support from DPM staff and local services.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
‘Yaegl Biirrinba’ is a celebration of culture, community and country. In a context where mental health and suicide are at a crisis point for Indigenous young people around the nation, this song is a reminder of the strength, resilience and cultural identity of the Yaegl people.
This project featured the musical direction and production of DPM producer Josh Nicholas (aka Hazy). We thank you brother for you artistic vision and hard work. Also huge thanks to Jannali Doncaster, a Yaegl hip hop artist, cultural activist and mentor - who joined the DPM squad for the first time on this project.
Special thanks to Liza Hamilton and the staff at Maclean High School. And huge thanks to Madeleine and the team at Yulgilbar Foundation for funding this important project. Respect and gratitude to all the Yaegl people. Big love to all you mob, and thanks for having us on country!!
Australia's Original Nations people suffer huge disadvantages, both culturally and socially. Many Original Nations people continue to feel the effects of generational trauma on a daily basis, critical rates of youth suicide (the highest in the world), low life expectancy, unemployment, cycles of incarceration, isolation and substance abuse. Desert Pea Media is a response to this.
Established in 2002, Desert Pea Media (DPM) is a registered charitable organisation that works with Indigenous young people in regional and remote areas of Australia using contemporary storytelling techniques and audio-visual media to foster important social and cultural dialogue. We work with Elders, young people, community leaders and local service providers to ensure our programs are relevant, engaging and appropriate to the needs of individuals and communities.
Over 17 years DPM has produced over 120 music videos and 17 documentaries for over 80 communities. Our YouTube channel has had over 2.7 million views.
Visual artist, activist and academic Lilla Watson, directly quoting Aboriginal activists from Queensland in the 1970s said ‘If you have come here to help me, you are wasting our time. But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together.’
We believe that OUR cultural liberation as Australian people is bound up with the liberation of the Original Nations people of Australia. We cannot undo the past, but we can actively contribute to a respectful, truthful, aware, and ultimately positive future, for everyone. So let us all take responsibility, and work together to build an inclusive Australian culture that we can be proud of.

In the past, before kardiya came to Australia, yapa looked after their country well. They walked over the country, they knew all the plants and animals, they knew their Jukurrpa (Dreaming) and they knew the Milarpa. They knew their country and the country knew them. They sang for country, danced for country, they burnt country to keep it healthy. They kept their country strong yapa way. Yapa looked after country and country looked after them.
Today Yapa knowledge and laws about country are still there, but young people are starting to forget about this knowledge and laws, they are forgetting about their culture. We are worrying that the country is going down (declining) in health. It is getting less healthy because people are forgetting their culture. People don’t visit their country to look after it much anymore. Young people and even middle-aged people, they don’t know country like old people do. They know their Jukurrpa only a little bit, they don’t know Yapa names for plants and animals or the Yapa ways to look after country or laws for how to do this properly.
We need to keep country strong yapa way. We need to go out on country more and look after it. Young people and old people need to go together, so young people can learn more about country from old people, before it is too late. This knowledge of how to look after country Yapa way is already starting to die out. We need to keep it going to be able to look after our country.
Northern Tanami Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) committee members directed the CLC to re-imagine their IPA Plan of Management, an English-heavy guide book for looking after the IPA. The brief was to create a lush digital resource using spoken Warlpiri that could be accessed both online and offline to mirror the content of the management plan and be navigated through voice commands. The CLC’s hope is that the IPA digital storybooks will help all Warlpiri – from elders to school children – to better understand and support the work to keep country healthy and culture strong. The CLC has made digital storybooks for both the Southern Tanami and the Northern Tanami IPAs. See www.ngurra.org and www.walyalku.org.au

The recycling program at Wadeye was established by the Thamarrurr Rangers in 2016, following years of collecting marine debris from the vast 250 km coastline of the Thamarrurr Region. The Rangers looked at ways of reducing the source of this rubbish, and found that 70% consisted of plastic bottles, cans and other beverage containers. This led to the decision to start a Container Deposit Scheme (CDS)collection point in the community.
The Wadeye Community has been highly receptive to the recycling program, and have earnt over
$100,000 in refunds from beverage containers, and over $4,000 from old car batteries. In addition,
Rangers have worked on increasing community awareness about the harmful impacts of rubbish on the
land, sea and wildlife, and promoted opportunities for re-use and recycling.

Join us on this 2020 Unbroken Land journey…
“Water is my dreaming. My ancestors were the rainmakers.” Maureen O’Keefe is a Kaytetye-Warlpiri woman from Ali Curung. She is a dedicated writer living in Mparntwe/Alice Springs. The songs are sung in Kaytetye-Warlpiri by her mother’s sister, Mona and sister-in-law, Winnie. They are from Karlu Karlu (Devil’s Marbles).
The first song is called Yinjiri-jiri and is about the first water that flows… carrying the frothy debris with twigs and leaves and how it then flows clean.
The second song is called Ngapirinjilayi and is about the river gums standing tall on the riverbank, bits of their white bark flaking off and falling into the water, and the trees soaking up the water, making them green.
This video was produced by The Thamarrurr Youth Indigenous Corporation which aims to improve the lives of the indigenous people of the Thamarrur region in the Northern Territory. These video were made as part of the Bright Education Program which aims to deliver new cultural experiences/challenges to school-aged kids from Wadeye.

NO SHAME | BE PROUD | RESPECT
Smoking is the leading preventable cause of ill health and death among Indigenous Australians and contributes significantly to the gap in life expectancy. The health and financial consequences of smoking are far-reaching, with smoking rates in remote Yolŋu communities of around 70% far exceeding the national average. Further, smoking-related health costs in the NT are more than $764 million per year, even more than alcohol.
The documentary is very different from other health promotion resources in the tobacco arena, in that it tells the story of how and why smoking rates came to be where they are today. Led by the team of Yolŋu Tobacco Action Workers, particularly a senior elder, Mr. Oscar Garrawirtja from Galiwin'ku and producer/director, Dr Kishan Kariippanon, it does not judge or shame, but acknowledges the very difficult personal journey smokers are on, whilst highlighting the impact it is having today, all told by the voices of Yolŋu from around the region.
This documentary was produced to support the work of the Miwatj Tobacco Program being implemented in 5 communities across East Arnhem Land. It is funded by the Commonwealth Department of Health under the broader Tackling Indigenous Smoking and Healthy Lifestyles Initiative, part of Closing the Gap, being implemented in 57 Aboriginal Health Services around the country. The resource will be of great benefit to tobacco teams around the country as they strive to bring down the high rates of Indigenous smoking.
Of course, we hope you also enjoy the story, history and beautiful scenery of East Arnhem Land.

Stompem Ground 1992 - Blast From The Past - Fitzroy Xpress - Sun Shining Day
Seaside Drifters is a local community band from Mijilmilmia approximately 170klm's south of Broome. All the members hail from the Karajarri tribe and they are a party band who gives great rock n roll and reggae music. Originally formed in Darwin whilst at St Johns School.
This is the full film compilation of the six short films by the stArts with D Performance Ensemble as part of the multi-arts exhibition "Strong Feelings". This film was also showcased as part of the National Portrait Gallery's "Portrait: 23" Exhibition in Canberra.
Films:
"Listen"
As a way to introduce the audience to people, place and culture, ‘Listen’ began as a poem written by the group. It was translated into Auslan offering creative choreographic material for the artists to work with. This developed into a film and is an important reminder that these artists have stories to tell and they will tell them in their own ways.
"Go Back There"
Janice Carroll’s song ‘Go Back There’ vocalises her love for her family and desire to return to her country. When hearing the song it was clear to everyone that she needed to return to Pukatja/ Ernabella, for the first time in years. This film captures heart-warming displays of connection to land and people, beautiful scenery and exuberant family members!
"My Song Dress"
Lizzie Trew is a young Pitjantjatjara and Arrernte woman whose creativity shines in this film. Initially her idea was to compose a song. The complexities of the sounds and lyrics she created became the force behind her ‘Song Dress’ as she wanted to ‘see’ the music. Lizzie designed the dress, and painted the fabric, which matches the rhythm, flow and beats of the music. Alongside some of her animation work, this film showcases how her dress makes her feel. Lizzie is a creative phenomenon.
"Ntaria"
Ntaria was created celebrating the country of the awesome artist Caleb McMillan. Caleb’s deep connection to his family is paramount in this film and his gentle heart and infectious personality envelop all those who meet him. This film offers a window into seeing those deep connections, history and day-to-day life in Ntaria (Hermannsburg). The film has a haunting soundtrack of song created by Caleb, exploring what he loves about his homeland.
"DJ Brandon Williams"
Brandon Williams has always dreamed of being a world-famous DJ. To play a banging tune and for people around the globe to hear it, what an achievement! Well, that is exactly what happened. The song was set free, the people pressed play and the dancing began!! Brandon’s epic track forms the backing to this incredible film clip, connecting the rest of the world to the Central Desert through some seriously powerful beats.
"Super Powered"
A collaboration between the fellas of stArts with D, Super Powered is about super strengths and where the artists feel strong. We can take a trip with them to Darwin and cruise around Mparntwe (Alice Springs) while they show their superpowers. A collage of talent is behind this film. With animations, songs, soundtracks and costumes, it is an empowering feast for the senses. What are your superpowers? Where do you feel strong?

Pre chorus

Step back feel the power of my blackness! x2

Mamu Kurtaji is a contemporary adaptation of a traditional Warlpiri monster story. The Kurtaji man punishes those who break cultural law. He can sing himself invisible and walks on emu feathers so he cannot be heard and leaves no tracks. It is said that if you see the Kurtaji, it is too late.
In 1883 a large gathering of First Nations People gathered at the top of Doctor George Mountain, near Bega, on the NSW Far South Coast to perform a mens initiation specifically so that it could be recorded by one of the world's earliest anthropologists, Alfred William Howitt.

Commissioned by South East Local Land Services.

Red Dust headed back to Walungurru school in October to work with the community to write, record and produce a music video.
All good music in Walungurru starts in the Old Green Shed studio space… and often with a good jam!
Red Dust Music facilitators Steve, Kai and Matt spent much of Monday jamming with young wati (men) Luke, Winston, Fabian, Roy and Lindsay, ably led by Running Water band’s Francis and Ricky.
Soon we had a track … a lively western desert reggae groove, wildly propelled by young wati Luke (Kintore’s Keith Moon reincarnate) with a ska influenced refrain (reminiscent of early Elvis Costello)
As the numbers swelled in the old green shed (what happens when music radiates throughout the community) so did the lyrics for the track.
Most of the songs Red Dust have written with community over the last decade deal with the longing community mob have for their country, particularly when they are away. It’s a deep aching that music seems to help soothe.
This song is something a little different. It is more of a picture of the landscape and cultural connection to that. The chorus, ‘When you burn, life returns, colours change, everything is growing’ came from Francis and clearly spells out the community’s intrinsic relationship to the landscape and their part in its renewal. Also, for the first time in many Red Dust music projects, the group decided to sing the lyrics in English.
The song was then recorded live and the group worked on the phrasing for the melodies together.
Finally, a guide track was put down, and we made our way over to Yirara College to gain their input.
There was a small but keen class of senior students at Yirara College.
Daria, Jandelle, Mango, Celia, Trenton and Reagan were all keen to add their voices to the song and together we came up with the call and response backing vocals that are so distinct in this song.
The students in Kipara class at Walungurru School also added their enthusiasm and voice to the project.
Early in the week, we had a discussion with Walungurru School teaching assistant Shirley Conway about what the video might look like. Shirley was keen for the younger classes to be involved in the video and get them painted up to dance.
Once the word spread around the community, everyone got excited.
On the Thursday morning the whole community came down to the Sorry camp. It was the first time something like this had happened for a few years and the excitement was palpable.
For many of the young children from the school involved, this was their first dance in front of community.
Later that day we set the band up for the photoshoot in the roundabout at the entrance to Kintore.
Musicians:
Traditional song at start: Josephine Napurrula
Drums: Luke (unfortunately not drumming in video)
Bass: Ricky
Guitar: Francis
Piano; Winston
Organ: Luke
Vocals: Francis, Daria, Jandelle, Mango, Celia, Trenton, Reagan, Clarence, Jake, Leo, Akeisha and Henry

As part of the Theatre Kimberley Outreach program, the Big Country Puppets artistic team visited Yakanarra Community for one month, a small remote community in the Fitzroy River Valley. Lead theatre artist Bernadette Trench-Thiedeman and theatre artist Eduardo Maher worked with the Ngurrara Women Rangers, elders Beryl Dickens and Jessie Moora, and students from the school to create a theatre performance using giant puppetry and song. The Big Country Puppets project draws on the Rangers' knowledge of their Country's ecology. The Rangers choose the project's location and themes for the theatre project.
The Big Country Puppets projects fuse art and science, as well as maintaining a focus on endangered Aboriginal languages within the production process and performance of each theatre show. The script and songs for the Yakanarra project are written in English and Walmajarri, and the songs were co-written rehearsed and performed by students.
A local dreaming story 'Karnanganyja jaa Likjartiwarnti' (The Emu and the Fork Tailed Kites) from Jessie Moora was adapted for performance, and a new theatre script about an endangered skink ' Jilji the Skink' was co-written with the Ngurrara Rangers, who found this skink during a biodiversity survey in 2021. This story also showcases the rangers fire management work through Right way/Wrong way fire work. The puppets for both of these stories were designed and built with the Rangers, including the Ngurrara Men's Rangers and students from Yakanarra Community school.
A rap song about Jilji the Skink was written in Walmajarri language and in English by Lyrical Instinct (Broome rapper Jacob Gregory) Yakanarra Community school students, with the help of local linguists and language speakers Jessie Moora and Beryl Dickens.

LYRICS
Dhinawan yuluwirri – from the beginning
Like a whisper in the wind singin’ the spirits are with me
Yarran-dhu mirri-dha, diamond in the rough
It’s Moree madness, living life in the cut
Rumpers at night
going live on the mic
Like a spark to a flame
When the timing is right
Yaama. Welcome to the black soil plains
Where the mob self-medicate to hide from the pain
Where the war with cops is just a part of the game
Shout outs to Buddy G – put respect on his name.
Don’t forget it
We got these traumas
We’ve been trying to heal this pain
They tried to break us
They can never take away this flame
The system trying to cage us
Put our mob back in these chains
Them old spirits angered
Look to the stars and you will see
Moree madness, getting ready to go.
When I speak my truth I got that sunshine glow
From the bush to the beach where my songlines flow
Gomeroi, Dunghutti – if you know then you know
My daddy said this world ain’t made for me
No matter what I do how I dress how I speak
But no matter what they think, what they hear, what they see
I am this country and this country is me
Me and my M.O.B
Shout outs to Moree
Got dat black history
Top Camp to Birrawee
Wear the black on my back where my backpack be
Once I land my degree – nah ya ain’t stopping me (nah)
Coz my people survived
Kept my stories alive
It’s where I get my pride
Straight outta Terry Hie Hie
Got the spirit inside
I got that black soil pride
Put ya hands in the sky
If you from Terry Hie Hie
We got these traumas
We’ve been trying to heal this pain
They tried to break us
They can never take away this flame
The system trying to cage us
Put our mob back in these chains
Them old spirits angered
Look to the stars and you will see

Some of our senior students completed a 14-week intensive course, we work with cattle out at the Bohning Cattle Yard and help make an ad for Channel 7.
The power of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities of Far North Queensland entwined in a legacy of traditional language and song, sung in Gunggandji, Yidinji, Yalanji, Guugu Yimithirr, Meriam Mir and Kulkalgal Ya.
Audiences will be culturally immersed in traditional forms of singing rarely heard outside the community environment, performed in the soaring acoustic setting of the new Cairns Performing Arts Centre.
This ground breaking stage production is creatively produced by three Choir Directors, to develop a repertoire that has both cultural, historical and contemporary significance. Resulting in the reimagining of songs, sung in language, to reveal that Far North Queensland's First Peoples' culture is seamless, as it continues to adapt and evolve.

Underpinning the significance of the Northern Tanami IPA to Kardiya are its remoteness and the vast scale of the area’s relatively intact landscapes in which desert and tropical ecosystems are juxtaposed.
The IPA is a refuge for desert species at the northern extent of their range, such as the nationally iconic walpajirri (bilby – Macrotis lagotis) and other nationally threatened species such jajina (brush-tailed mulgara– Dasycercus blythi) and pujarr-pujarrpa (southern marsupial mole – Notoryctes typhlops). The IPA also includes the southern limit of the distribution of the nationally endangered Gouldian finch (Erythrura gouldiae), a strikingly beautiful bird that once foraged across northern Australia in flocks of many hundreds, but is now reduced to scattered remnant populations at favoured waterholes in savanna grasslands mainly in Western Australia and the Top End of the Northern Territory. The occurrence of other near-threatened species such as wampana (spectacled hare-wallaby– Lagorchestes conspicillatus) and western chestnut mouse (Pseudomys nanus) within the IPA represent the southern extent of these species’ ranges in the Northern Territory.
The wetlands of the Northern Tanami IPA are significant to Kardiya for their ecological and aesthetic values. The conservation value of Wilson Creek Floodout, Kamira and the Lake Buck – Spider Lake complex has been recognised at a bioregional level, while the Lake Surprise and Lander River floodout system that extends into the IPA from the adjoining Southern Tanami IPA is listed as a conservation site of national significance.
The region remains relatively poorly surveyed in terms of its ecological wealth. However, a snapshot of the ecological importance of the IPA is available due to survey work undertaken by Parks and Wildlife Commission staff across the former Tanami Wildlife Sanctuary (which encompassed large parts of both the current Southern and Northern Tanami IPAs) in the 1970s and 1980s, combined with a small number of more recent surveys undertaken by scientists and consultant biologists working alongside traditional owners. The IPA is known to support:
• five nationally threatened animal species
• 12 animals listed as near-threatened in the Northern Territory
• nine species of plants listed as near-threatened in the Northern Territory
• part of one site of international conservation significance (South-west Tanami) and part of one site of national conservation significance (Lake Surprise and Lander River Floodout swamps)
• one site of national botanical significance and four sites of bioregional botanical significance.
Despite being an important ecological refuge for many plants and animals, the Tanami region as a whole is also significant for being a hotspot for mammal species declines since European settlement, contributing to the world record that Australia holds for mammal extinctions (29 species).
The gold mining history of the region is also of significance to Kardiya. Some 114 years after the original discovery of gold at Jarnami (Tanami) on the southern boundary of the current day IPA, new areas are still being explored for their potential mineral resources.
Since the 1980s, gold mining across the Tanami has also provided some economic benefit back to Warlpiri traditional owners through royalty payments by mining companies and through the creation of limited local employment opportunities at mine sites.
Northern Tanami Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) committee members directed the CLC to re-imagine their IPA Plan of Management, an English-heavy guide book for looking after the IPA. The brief was to create a lush digital resource using spoken Warlpiri that could be accessed both online and offline to mirror the content of the management plan and be navigated through voice commands. The CLC’s hope is that the IPA digital storybooks will help all Warlpiri – from elders to school children – to better understand and support the work to keep country healthy and culture strong. The CLC has made digital storybooks for both the Southern Tanami and the Northern Tanami IPAs. See www.ngurra.org and www.walyalku.org.au

Across Australia there are hundreds of different Aboriginal languages, some that are still spoken fluently across generations, and others that are endangered, and are in the process of being revived or preserved.
But what’s involved in keeping these ancient languages alive, and who are the people doing the work?
In 2016 there was a WA language conference held in the Kalgoorlie-Boulder. It was an event that brought together Aboriginal language speakers and experts from across WA and Australia, but it was also a place for people to come together and celebrate culture and share their vision for the future.
This video captures the language and the stories of some of those people who attended the annual gathering, and it was produced with help from First Languages Australia.
This video was originally contributed to the ABC Open Mother Tongue project, which invited Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to share a story about their mother tongue.
The Wajarri language, once spoken throughout the Murchison region of Western Australia, now has fewer than 50 fluent speakers. The Wajarri Dictionary App, developed by the Bundiyarra - Irra Wangga Language Centre, contains almost 2000 entries from the Wajarri language dictionary. Godfrey Simpson is a Wajarri man and at 37 is one of the few young speakers of the language. He has worked on his wangga (language) for most of his life and is passionate about seeing it passed on to the younger generation.
This video was created with the kind permission and assistance of Godfrey Simpson, Edie Maher, Nadine Taylor, Leeann Merritt, Coralie Dann, Amanda Simpson and Kira O'Dene; with special thanks and gratitude to Wajarri Elders Dora Dann and Ross Boddington, and all Wajarri people who have given their language and made projects like these possible.

SANFL APY League Round 7 Highlights Mimili Blues Vs Amata Bombers at Indulka
Desert Pea Media is very proud to present a new collaboration with the community of Coomealla/Dareton NSW.
This production was created in April of 2021 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process between Desert Pea Media, Coomealla Health Aboriginal Corporation (a local Indigenous-led Health Service) and an incredibly talented group of students at Coomealla High School, who represent Barkindji and Maraura Tribal Groups.
The overall purpose of the broader project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people. Focusing on cultural identity, wellbeing and connection to country.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
We as a team feel deeply honoured and grateful to learn, share and create with the Coomealla community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
This project was Directed by filmmaker, facilitator, and hip hop artist Roy Weiland, and co-facilitated by acclaimed Bundjalung hip hop artist 'JK47' or Jacob Paulson. Music Produced by DPM Music Producer Josh Nicholas. See below for full credits.
Special thanks to Jaharlyn Mitchell and the staff at CHAC and Coomealla High School.
Special thanks to the TO's of Coomealla - The Barkindji People, and all of the Clan Groups of the region that participated, welcomed us and shared their country for the creation of this production. We are humbled and grateful for your trust and support.

LYRICS
Barkindji/Maraura the place where I’m from
Where the Barka meets the Murray where our people belong
We one mob! So you know our spirit is strong
Its been 60,000 years and our cultures still lives on
I didn’t know what happened in ’67’
Till I sat with my aunt and she told me bout the Referendum
A right to vote. It gave us hope (helped lighten the load)
Our elders spoke amongst the fire and smoke
Its time we make a change, so you can’t be scared
Leave ya shame at the door sis its time to share
Time to love one another but that takes respect
And I can feel it as my heart beats step by step
Lets talk more about our mental health
Because we all got a story that we’re meant to tell (gotta help yourself)
Leave the grog up on the shelf you don’t need it
Gotta listen up when your elders are speaking
Disconnect from disrespect
Look straight ahead and have a vision my bred
Focus on education this nation we gotta protect
Showing respect has a ripple effect (yea)
We walk beside the river and amongst the red dust
So its time to take a stand for the country we love
Look inside for your dreaming and never give up
Cause your country gonna help you when it starts to get rough
HOOK
Culture runs through the Barka the Barka is life
Its written in the stars when I look up at night
Yea we Barkindji muupa’s (kids) we strong and proud
Standing up tall and we yelling it loud

We Deserve to Dream” features steel guitar, Xavier’s signature percussive beat drives this spirited song that builds to a sweet soaring chorus with an anthemic bent. We Deserve To Dream speaks of the freedom that is ours to be found in the elements of the land, the ocean, the trees, yet we find ourselves locked up in layers of conditioning thrust upon us by life. The accompanying film clip symbolically encapsulates this point in life via dance and features renown First Nations dancer Tyrel Dulvarie .
We see Tyrel suited-up and unfulfilled. He returns home to the land he belongs and from the broken pieces finds a photo of his younger self. As he peels back the layers of society he spiritually reconnects with himself through fire and ceremony and importantly his dance. The more Tyrel dances the more golden he becomes as was before he became tainted by life. Tyrel dances as the gold dust takes him over and returns his soul to its former pure essential self where he can re-create his dreams.

Indigenous Outreach Projects and Preston Campbell Foundation had the privilege and honour to work alongside the Doomadgee State School.
We worked with their youth from Prep to Year 10 delivering dance workshops and making this fantastic music video clip.
Our Director, Michael Farah, and Preston Campbell delivered workshops through the week and were available to support the youth with conversations around mental health. Some of the topics that were discussed can be heard through the lyrics in this song.
The end of week concert was definitely a highlight for the entire community where every student showcased the dance routines they were taught by the IOP Hip Hop Crew back to their family and friends.
We would love to say a massive thank you once again to PCF, IOP Crew, Doomadgee State School and most importantly the community and the youth for sharing this experience with us we are extremely proud of what we have achieved together.

Jerry Jangala Patrick is a senior Warlpiri Elder living in the community of Lajamanu at the northern tip of the Tanami Desert. His most recent endeavour is the leading mastermind of the Reading the Country Project.
The Reading the Country project has almost finished developing its pilot training framework that aims to equip Aboriginal rangers and other remote community residents with the knowledge and skills required to track animals. This knowledge is still really valuable for us to keep going and for our Rangers to use tracking and Yapa knowledge in their work, says Jerry.
Times have changed from when Jerry was young, there are less people to learn from and less time for learning and tracking is no longer needed to survive. Jerry recognises this and hopes the training framework will enable master trackers and rangers to fast-track learning through creating and supporting intensive learning opportunities.
In this film Jerry imparts his knowledge, history and passion for teaching and tracking. According to Dione Kelly (previous Senior Warlpiri Ranger), Jangala is really valuable in life itself, for Warlpiri. He teaches us everything.

Merne Mwerre is a celebration of keeping tyerrtye (body) and utnenge (spirit) strong by eating good food and connecting to Apmere (Country).
Merne Mwerre, translating to ‘Good Food’ in English, was filmed in Mparntwe (Alice Springs) at Olive Pink Botanical Gardens with a number of incredibly talented First Nations local community members including Edmond Doolan, Jarrel Williams, Monisha Martin Turner and Carol Turner. The music video portrays two First Nations children learning the power that comes from merne mwerre and how bush tucker can be found on Country.
Merne Mwerre was written and sung by first-time songwriter Edmond Doolan, an Arrernte man from Anapipe (Sandy Bore) north of Alice Springs and Arrernte leader for Children’s Ground's Men’s and Youth team. The song is sung in both Eastern/Central Arrernte and English.
Merne Mwerre is taken from the Arrernte language children’s album Ampe-mape Alyelheme (Kid’s Sing (https://open.spotify.com/artist/7H4Ki..., released in 2023. Ampe-mape Alyelheme (Kid’s Sing) was an undertaking by Children’s Ground to remedy the lack of children's music available in Arrernte language. Active since 2021, the Children’s Ground music project has been supported by contributions from founding member of The Cat Empire Harry Angus, Tinpan Orange’s Emily Lubitz and artists, families and educators local to Central Australia.
The music video was produced in collaboration with, and support from, Lemon Tree Media and Productions, Bill Raby Diabetes Fellowship, Australian Government Indigenous Language and Arts Program and ABC Kids.

Torres Strait Islander Boys from Djarragun College, a school for indigenous students near Cairns, Far North Queensland, perform dances from Murray Island in the Torres Strait during a performance at the Sound Shell in Cairns during celebrations commemorating Mabo Day. They sing and dance "Au meta lug bawki" (about Calm weather and sea) and "A.T. up" (about the Hammersley Iron Train, on which some Islander men used to work) and "Sama iye rofe le" (a song from the Pacific).
Young Torres Strait Islander women and men perform two dances from Boigu Island, just south of Papua New Guinea in the north-western Torres Strait Islands during a night performance to celebrate Mabo Day in Cairns, Far North Queensland, Australia. The men use small sailing boats as dancing props and the dancers are sprayed with baby powder (!) as a sign of appreciation. Towards the end women seem to mock them when they are dancing, but this is also a sign of appreciation for the performance!
The Kuku Yalanji Bamanga Bubu Ngadimunku dancers from Mossman Gorge in Far North Queensland perform at the Laura Dance and Cultural Festival in 2001. They depict different scenes: traditional healing, hunting and spearing a crocodile and the behaviour of a cassowary, a large flightless bird, as it walks and feeds and the typical "shake-a-leg" dances.
The Mona Mona Mayi Wunba dance group from Kuranda, just 25 km northwest of Cairns, performs at the Laura Festival, Cape York, in Far North Queensland, Australia. They depict hunting kangaroos, a fisherman attacked by a crocodile, finding bush honey in a tree; the girls dance followed by a "shake-a-leg" dance by the boys.
It was a powerful trip to Alice Springs and I can't wait to come back to Alice Springs again!
We felt very welcomed; alot of smiles, handshakes and respect for me and the Karajarri group of men that came all the way over for a very important project!

This beautiful series of shorts from First Languages Australia celebrate Indigenous languages, and the people who speak them, keep them alive and help others to learn more about Indigenous language.
In 2012-2013 a group of Ngaanyatjarra and Ngaanyatjarra language speakers from the Ngaanyatjarra Lands in Western Australia recorded traditional verbal arts and sand stories.
Even in Australian Indigenous communities where traditional spoken languages are still relatively strong, these special forms of communication are highly endangered.
This is one of four films from the Western Desert Verbal Arts Project funded by:
ELDP (Endangered Languages Documentation Programme) Small Grant SG0187.
Australian Research Council – DE120100720
Australian Research Council – DP110102767
The films were produced by team members Elizabeth Marrkilyi Ellis, Inge Kral (ANU) and Jennifer Green (University of Melbourne).
The Tjawa Tjawa Songline follows a group of women in search of husbands.
The women travel from Roebourne in the Pilbara through to Kiwikurra in the Great Sandy Desert far to the south of Balgo, where they split up, some heading east and some north. When they near Lake Mackay they join a camp of Ngarti women and are brought kangaroo by an old man. They eat some of the meat, including the hook of a spear still buried in the flesh. This makes them feel very strange. They realise that this old man could not have speared the kangaroo himself and that there must be young men somewhere nearby. They look around everywhere right up until the evening. Then they see a young man with his headband lit up by the last rays of the setting sun and they cry with joy. They smash a path through the hill and make love with the men and sleep.
Two senior law men, outraged at the violation of their ceremony ground, spread a fire in which both the men and women are consumed and die, but with special magic the women return to life again and travel underground to Tjawa Tjawa and on via Walkali and Makura to Manga Manga where they are forced underground to return to their home country.
Songline custodian Mark Moora was born at Kiyarr in the Great Sandy Desert of Western Australia. He grew up in Old Balgo (Wirrimanu Community) where he attended the Pallottine Mission School for five years. Mark wanted to record the Tjawa Tjawa songline in order to reconnect his people to their country and hold this story strong for future generations.
This documentary is built around a series of interviews with seven Nyul Nyul / Jabirr Jabirr "Saltwater People" cultural bosses who describe the cultural genocide they and their forebears suffered when the church stopped the use of language and the local practice of Nyul Nyul Law and Culture in the days of the Beagle Bay Mission.
The Wadja People tell the story of Junjardee. He is a short, hairy man who lives in holes at Red Bank, near Woorabinda.

Catch a slice of Martu life in two minutes. Take a walk around the general store in Punmu community.
Dhinawan' is the Kamileroi word for 'emu', and the song title refers to an ancient Kamileroi constellation etched into the negative space of the milky way. A powerful and sacred Indigenous songline, the Dhinawan story shifts and changes as it travels from nation to nation, and is the foundation of this particular production.
Written, recorded and filmed over 5 days in June 2016 in the remote community of Walgett in Northwest NSW, 'Dhinawan Touch the Stars' is an outcome of a Desert Pea Media community project with a group of young Indigenous people enrolled at Walgett Community College.
The project came about through a partnership between Desert Pea Media, Outback Arts and the James N Kirby Foundation.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encouraged participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for individuals, for each other and for our communities.

Martu on country to talk about the Criminal Justice System
The Martu Leadership Program (MLP) participants have just returned from a four day camp on country attended by key law agencies, departments and organisations. Over 100 people were present for this important meeting that was held deep on Martu country not far from the Parnngurr community, located in the Western Desert.
The motivations for this meeting were simple. Martu want to reduce the number of Martu going to lock-up. They feel it is time to form a different sort of relationship with key whitefellas working in the criminal justice system. They feel that Martu working closely with police, lawyers, prison and the Pilbara magistrate is the way for everyone to change the story.
To help everyone on this journey the MLP organised this meeting on country to start the conversation. They invited Pilbara Magistrate Michelle Ridley, OIC Newman Police - Mark Fleskens, Senior Sergeant Jigalong - Bob Scott, Executive Manager for Indigenous and Community Diversity - Robert Skesteris, Aboriginal Legal Service Lawyers, Alice Barter and Melita Medcalf and Roebourne Regional Prison Senior staff- Catherine Bailey and Christina O’Brien.
This was an unprecedented and unique opportunity for Martu to talk with such a collection of people. The visitors knew that it was their chance to listen and Martu were keen to share their ideas. Everyone was keen to explore new methods within the criminal justice system that would give better outcomes for Martu and the broader community.
Billy Landy, mentor for the Martu Leadership Program felt that this was a big moment in time for Martu “We haven’t been able to talk like this before. I feel really proud for my people that we are taking this on. The whitefellas are listening to our story and we see that as a big respect”
Linking to KJ’s successful ranger and Leadership programs to take Martu out for the Criminal Justice System. Everyone wants the same thing. To keep the young people out of trouble.
Snr Sergeant Mark Fleskens observed “we may be at an early part of a big journey, but what a great start to exploring new ways of doing things. The possibilities are considerable and now the real work begins”
The MLP will now work closely with local police, ALS lawyers, the magistrate and Prison staff on a raft of initiatives. The key is seen as everyone working together – Kujungka.

Warru, or black-footed rock-wallaby, is one of South Australia's most endangered mammals. In 2007, when numbers dropped below 200 in the APY Lands in the remote north-west of the State, the Warru Recovery Team was formed to help save the precious species from extinction. Bringing together contemporary science, practical on-ground threat management and traditional Anangu ecological knowledge, this unique decade-long program has recently celebrated the release of dozens of warru to the wild for the first time. Come on an adventure in conservation and culture as indigenous rangers bring the warru back from the brink of extinction!
Yurntumu-wardingki juju-ngaliya-kurlangu yawulyu: Warlpiri women's songs from Yuendumu.
This series consists of four short films in which Warlpiri women sing, dance and tell the stories of different ancestral beings who travel across Warlpiri country. Each part contains footage of these women singing, painting their bodies with red and white ochre and performing the accompanying dances. The first part presents the Minamina yawulyu and tells of group of ancestral women as they emerge from Minamina, in the far west of Warlpiri country and begin their journey eastwards. Part 2 presents the songs and stories of the Watiyawarnu ancestors from Ngurlulirri-nyinanya, to the north-west of Yuendumu, telling of their travels as they search for varieties of acacia seed, grinding them and making seed cakes along the way. Part 3 presents the famous songs and story of the two Jangalas from Warlukurlangu whose evil blue-tongue lizard father lights a raging bush fire, forcing them to run away southwards out of their country before they return home, weak and exhausted. And finally, part 4 presents the songs and stories of the Ngapa ‘Rain’ Dreaming that travels westwards across the country to the north of Yuendumu. Warlpiri women from Yuendumu have presented these yawulyu so that the songs and their associated knowledge can be remembered and performed by future generations of Warlpiri women. These films appear on a DVD which comes as an accompanying insert in the book ‘Yurntumu-wardingki juju-ngaliya-kurlangu yawulyu: Warlpiri women’s songs from Yuendumu’ (Batchelor Institute Press, 2017).

Life as a fair-skinned Aboriginal woman has not been easy for Aunty Gloria Rogers. Being caught between two worlds brings uncertainty, and inevitable anxiety, but Aunty Gloria has spent her life learning how to honour both. At the crux of everything is indyamarra (respect), and it is through that knowledge that Gloria has built a life bringing the two worlds together. The ultimate lesson here is staying true to yourself, no matter what walk of life you are from. When we learn more about the parts that make us unique, and how to express those, our lives can become far more fulfilling.

Fans soaked up the electrifying atmosphere with family members, friends and the local arts industry. Humour and pumping tunes got the crowd dancing and singing, done B2M style! No one was left disappointed with their final show.
The evening was emotional with the ethos of B2M’s commitment to the Tiwi people, Indigenous issues and the nation formed an underlying current throughout the show, 'Mamanta'. Darwin was treated to experience Tiwi ancient stories and songlines, with B2M honouring the past whilst celebrating the future. This was especially encapsulated at the end of the show when their children and family members were invited on stage for their final song as B2M.
VAMPtv, Northern Territory Music School interviewed Jeffrey ‘Yello’ Simon and shot exclusive footage of B2M's final concert in Darwin, including behind-the-scenes. Head to Artback NT website for more information: artbacknt.com.au/show/b2m-mamanta/

Our first morning in Kintore was spent sitting down with the elders and Kintore mob chatting about what kind on project they'd like to take place this trip.
A meeting was called in the afternoon, at the basketball courts to talk about the week.
Most of the most senior men and women came.
It was decided that Red Dust would record some traditional songs and that would happen straight away, so we quickly got our recording gear and cameras and let the performances begin. (You can see this video here: https://youtu.be/tGuazoVb21A)
The community also wanted to have a ceremony video recorded during the visit, a huge honor for the visiting Red Dust Team.
The community was also keen to write a song about the beginnings of the Kintore township.... Our Story!
It was decided that the Red Dust Music Team (Realtone) would set up in the green shed and the song writing process and recording would involve all ages from the community.
The young men and women of the CDP program were the first to be involved, contributing many of the lyrics of the song.
Then some of the senior men, worked on the melody and refined some of the lyrics.
The band included Trevor Dixon on drums, Michael Gallagher on lead guitar, Rodney on bass, Francis on rhythm guitar and Trevor on acoustic guitar.
The main vocals were sung by Michael and Cheryl, with the fellas and girls from the CDP singing backups. The bridge was written and sung by the CDP girls.

Across Australia there are hundreds of different Aboriginal languages, some that are still spoken fluently across generations, and others that are endangered, and are in the process of being revived or preserved.
But what’s involved in keeping these ancient languages alive, and who are the people doing the work?
In 2016 there was a WA language conference held in the Kalgoorlie-Boulder. It was an event that brought together Aboriginal language speakers and experts from across WA and Australia, but it was also a place for people to come together and celebrate culture and share their vision for the future.
This video captures the language and the stories of some of those people who attended the annual gathering, and it was produced with help from First Languages Australia.

This video was originally contributed to the ABC Open Mother Tongue project, which invited Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to share a story about their mother tongue.
According to Suellyn Tighe, a Gamilaraay woman from Coonabarabran, the modern Aboriginal story is a difficult one.
To keep her language current, to keep Aboriginal youth engaged, she believes we need to present her language in a modern day setting whilst maintaining the connection to the past.
Suellyn originally wrote the poem, Near or Far, for her grandchildren. It’s about reconnecting a young Aboriginal girl to the language of the land and the richness of the Gamilaraay culture. It begins with a young Aboriginal girl (Briarna) in a town setting drawn to an older Aboriginal woman in a bush setting (Suellyn) who is reciting a poem (Near or Far) in Gamilaraay. The voice connects them through this sacred meeting place to the modern day.
The Kamilaroi or "Gamilaroi" are an Indigenous Australian Murri people. Gamilaraay country stretches from Coonabarabran (NSW) in the south, north to Boggabilla, to Tamworth in the east and Walgett in the west.
Suellyn has taught Gamilaraay within communities and educational arenas across the Gamilaraay nation. Rather than tell people how to speak the language she likes to show people the language.

Wadawurrung country stretches from the mountains to the sea. It includes hills, rivers and grassy plains, creeks and coasts and includes modern towns such as Werribee, Geelong and Ballarat in Victoria.
Since colonisation, white fellas have tried to write down our Wadawurrung language, even though there are no equivalent sounds in English.
We had no written language so early settlers wrote down what they heard using their own language trying to reproduce the sounds.
In this series of short films we correct some of the language spelling of the places we all know and explain the meaning behind our stories.
Language needs a place to live, and this is a chance for us to tell our stories and our language.
Our language is sleeping, but will soon reawaken.
This video tells the story of how our Wadawurrung people were created by Bunjil, our spirit creator, at Kareet Bareet, now known as Black Hill near Gordon, not far from Ballaarat. This area was once covered in forest but is now largely a farming community, mainly of potatoes, due to the rich volcanic soils. That is why the Wadawurrung are known as the red soil people.

LYRICS:
VERSE 1:
I feel guilty for bothering you
I’m not lost but I don’t know what to do
I’m not dead but I’m barely liv’in
And something’s just can’t be forgiven
Hid the bruises so work couldn’t tell
I’ve always been clumsy as hell
I never asked for this decision
to send two men to prison
CHOURS:
But I never thought that I would survive
he gripped his hands around my throat
there’s tears in my eyes
when I never thought that I would see 25
I didn’t think that I would still be alive.
But ta-dah!
VERSE 2:
Dragged into a Collingwood street
by the steps I heard behind me
It’s all there on CCTV
More than just assault and battery
Vengeance is a whispering friend
the two brothers in a cell on remand
are not the only the lives in my hands
I don’t want us all to be condemned
CHORUS:
But I never thought that I would survive
he gripped his hands around my throat
the tears in my eyes
when I never thought that I would see 25
I didn’t think that I would still be alive.
But ta-dah!
BRIDGE:
I wanna forgive the things they’ve done
But it’s hard to do with a busted lung
But it’s all that’s in my head
CHORUS:
But I never thought that I would survive
he gripped his hands around my throat
there’s tears in my eyes
when I never thought that I would see 25
I didn’t think that I would still be alive.
But ta-dah

Five years is a long time in the lives of men. In the life of a country it’s the blink of an eye.
Balang Lewis and the four senior Wagalak, Rembarrnga and Dalabon Songmen on this landmark Australian album are all sadly passed since its original, strictly limited release in August 2007. But their songs, as captured in an inspired collaboration with some of the most respected and inventive contemporary musicians in Australia, will live forever.
Songs from Walking With Spirits is a unique document to celebrate the potency of an ancient storytelling tradition. For more than 80 years, ethnomusicologists have travelled to the Beswick/ Wugularr community east of Katherine to witness the rare gravity of First Nations Songmen singing their country. A constant and indelible presence in a changing world, these men are keepers of the codes that unlock the map of kin, country and culture.
It was the late actor, singer, musician and Beswick elder Balang T. E. Lewis (The Chant of Jimmy Blacksmith, The Shadow King) who brought Roy Ashley, Micky Hall, Victor Hood and Jimmy Wesan together with revered Daddy Cool guitarist Ross Hannaford (who also passed in 2016), Gurrumul bassist Michael Hohnen and select other rock/ jazz/ contemporary musicians to help these ancient songs of country resonate anew.
What at first glance might seem like an odd pairing of musical cultures, in retrospect can be seen as a unique experiment in Australian genre-bending and blending.
The results are unlike anything heard before in Indigenous or western music: a breathtaking sound and energy that brings progressive dialogue to timeless concepts in an era when the promise of First Nations recognition has returned to the forefront of national awareness.

Mud Brick Milestone: Wilya Janta's Update on Indigenous Housing Development (English)
Bourke NSW: '28 On Top' is a collaboration that grew from an ongoing Desert Pea Media project with students from Bourke High School and local community members.
Since 2016, DPM has been working with the Bourke community to deliver songwriting and film projects. One of the outcomes of the project was a group called the 'B-Town Warriors'. In 2017, they released their hit debut single ‘People of the Red Sunset’ which dropped onto spot rotation on Triple J, attracted international media attention on its way to becoming a summer anthem of 2017 (400,000+ views on Youtube). The crew went on to release four other songs including the 2018 banger ‘Thundercloud’ that went on to win a National Indigenous Music Award, earning a segment on Channel 10’s ‘The Project’.
Throughout 2023/24 - Desert Pea Media has been delivering a new, foundation-building project model in Bourke called 'Crossroads'. Engaging previous B-Town Warriors participants in skills development, leadership, cultural education and creative development projects. Through an ongoing mentoring project with DPM artists, OG B-Town Warriors Lorraine Dutton, Braith Kelly and Jemmah Knight have been employed throughout the year at Bourke High School, working with current students to create dance, music and film productions.
'All That You Need' is the second tune from '28 On Top' and a new iteration of DPM's work. Co-facilitated by Lorraine Dutton, Jemmah Knight, Braith Kelly and the DPM Creative Team - led by Jannali Doncaster.
“It’s been an incredible experience being a part of the Crossroads Project. We don’t get many opportunities out here, and we feel the impacts not only on the kids and the community but our own wellbeing. Music is medicine.” – Lorraine Dutton (B-Town Warriors, Crossroads Project Participant)
"Our work in Bourke and Moree over the past couple of decades, and more recently through 'The Crossroads Project' has been an incredible journey of connection and transformation” says Toby Finlayson, Creative Director of Desert Pea Media. “It’s an honour to watch these young people grow, not only as artists and creatives but as people. The power of music and media to bridge gaps, create healing and amplify unheard voices is immeasurable.”
“The legacy of DPM’s work in Bourke is well-known in this region. Hopefully we can create a model where the older crew inspire the younger students, and they in turn become leaders and role models for future generations” (Murray Cronin – Executive Principal, Bourke High School)
Funded by Bourke High School.
Special thanks to the B-Town mob, and to the Indigenous Community of Bourke for your trust and friendship over many years.
LYRICS
Two feet in on this dangerous track
Ain’t no one foot about got no time to look back
Got no time to react-we set to hit em where it hurts
We in yah brain like the smell of the rain upon the red dirt
There’s beauty in the stillness
Close your eyes and feel this - just focus on the realness
Yanatya and gum leaf smoke will heal the illness
28 on top (WHAT!) back up in the building
Just do it for yourself and the ones that came before you
Spirits of the country gonna guide an support your truth
So raise the roof-cause we back in the booth
They tried doubting us but we be the proof
Won’t follow the wrong track cause we know where it lead too
Walk your own path we be connected like the tree root
And we do-lead we dont follow surviving all the sorrow
We learn from the past to create a new tomorrow
You is all that you need
You can be what you want to be
When its dark an you can’t see
Lay your burden lean on me
You is all that you need
I am strong an I am free
When its dark an you can’t see
Wake up now an live your dreams
We hurt our families with these words an these fights
Divided we fall in the dark of the night
We so blinded by the violence we don't know where to start
If there’s nowhere to go its easy to take the wrong path
Adrenalin rush 20 seconds not enough
Can’t break the cycle young teens acting tough
Young mum's too busy, dad's drunk an dizzy
Not enough love why the love be missing?
When these times get tough you can find your wisdom
Dont stop now you can climb the distance
Don't lay down to society's conditions
They keeping us submitted, tryna keep us on Missions

This video features Robyn, a mother discussing her daughter’s challenges with crystal methamphetamine use and how it has affected their family. Despite the challenges, Robyn emphasises the importance of looking after yourself, open communication and hope for recovery.
This is one from a series of three videos that explore the impact of crystal methamphetamine through creative interpretations of testimonies. The three lived experience stories are told from the perspective of someone with experience using crystal methamphetamine, a mother of someone who uses crystal methamphetamine, and a health worker who works with people who use crystal methamphetamine. These videos aim to provide a voice to people with lived experience of crystal methamphetamine use, overcome stigma and harmful stereotypes, and provide hope for people with lived experience.

The first track to be released to radio is the title track - Tjamuku Ngurra. It opens with an irresistible Santana-like riff that expands into a potent tribal chorus driven by more funk based riffs. Lifted off Tjintu Desert Band’s debut album of the same name this song & album showcase the new sound coming out of Central Australia right now!

Each year cowboys from across the Kimberley load up their saddles, chaps and wranglers to go rough rising. Some are locals born and bred in the saddle, others are young riders from over east who come to munster through the dry. These are the real cowboys who ride day in and day out, mustering the rough and wild country of outback Australia. But come rodeo time they're all chasing the same dream.... 8 seconds of glory.

This story is about the mimi spirits and the mermaids who live at Beswick Falls. Participants interviewed each other after listening to elder Frankie Tango Lane, they then visited the site he had spoken to them about and shared their experience of it and took photographs to reflect what they were talking about. This process was supported by SharingStories facilitators as part of a school unit about history and culture. We encouraged teachers to consider an interpretation of that through songs, stories and paintings, historical narratives relevant to the children we were teaching. The stories that evolved were a combination of working to evolve culturally relvevant learning in the school space and the students and elders interpretations and stories about their own history.

This is our SACE movie video we hope you like it.
Home and Community Care (HACC) workers are currently being trained in a number of Ngaanyatjarra communities. HACC workers provide a valuable service to a range of clients who have reduced capacity due to age or disability. Part of their role includes preparing meals for their various clients. As a group they have put together a collection of recipes and the film ‘Meals On Wheels’ presents the HACC workers providing instructions on how to make each meal. ‘Meals On Wheels’ highlights the HACC staff from Jameson, Blackstone and Warakurna, cooking a meal at each location. Each community features the preparation of a recipe that has been selected by HACC, interspersed and concluded with vision and narration depicting themselves and their role.
Sample breakdown of content:
Introduction of HACC workers – the training they are doing
and an Introduction to the work that they do, the services they provide, who they provide them to.

We are proud people; you can see how we stand with our arms stretched out, not afraid to tell people that this place, Yarrenyty Arltere, is our place.
We are the women of this place, making art, making laughing, making strong. That body is painted with stories and markings, just like real woman, all covered in markings. But look, her arms are open like when people talk at meetings; her arms are open because she is talking for everyone to hear.
We are the men of this place, working together we make things get better. The stories and the culture must not get lost, we must pass them on to the young, they are what will make them always feel they belong.

A short documentary on the Billiluna Clinic.
Billiluna (Mindi Bungu) is a remote Aboriginal community located in the south-east Kimberley region of Western Australia on the northern edge of the Great Sandy Desert and on the western edge of the Tanami Desert. The Community is approximately 1100km east of Broome and 150km south of Halls Creek with a population of approximately 200-300 people.
On 21-27 May, 2017, the Pilbara & Kimberley Aboriginal Media (PAKAM) team, Clint Dixon, Quinton Milner, Ronald Mosquito and Magali McDuffie, were privileged to cover the Walkali Return to Country Trip. Seven hours from Balgo in the Central Tanami Desert, they travelled with Senior Elders Joe Brown, Butcher Wise and their extended families, women from the Kapululangu Centre in Balgo, and the Paruku Rangers from Mulan Community. This trip had been in planning for nearly two years, and was organised by the Kimberley Land Council.
It was a very emotional return to country for some of the community members who had not been there in more than 20 years, or whose grand-parents were from there but never had the chance to return. The highlights of the trip included a very moving smoking ceremony, visits to two significant rock holes, story-telling of country, making clapsticks and bush medicine, a women’s dance, hunting bush turkeys, and even the opportunity for two PAKAM crew, Clint Dixon and Quinton Milner, to go up in a helicopter to get some fantastic footage of country from the air!
PAKAM extends their thanks to all the people who made the trip possible and for the warm welcome received from all the community members. It was a pleasure and an absolute privilege to cover this trip and PAKAM look forward to showing you the finished film!

Lyric Video for Track 13 of UPK#6.
By Jeremy Whisky and Cupa Henry - Indulkana Community
(This is a lament about a violent relationship.)
Poor thing my big sister. Your husband is always beating you.
She keeps her home well and looks after her children.
(Addressing husband) Hey man. Your wife is very loving but you constantly make sadness. Look at the spirit inside her!
UPK stands for Uwankara Palyanku Kanyintjaku; a Pitjantjatjara expression meaning ‘everybody building and caring for the future’.
Using music is an agent of change, the songwriters involved take aim the root causes of hurt they see around them, like petrol sniffing, alcohol and drug addiction, waste management, care-for-country, hunting, and homesickness.
The content of UPK songs is not about blame or victimhood but a musical effort to address the factors that contribute to, or impact on, good living.
Creating awareness is the intention of UPK music because it is the key precedent to positive action.
UPK6 was recorded at West Bore in the APY Lands using an open-air studio with a hessian fence for wind-break, used carpet to keep the dirt down, and digital recording gear housed in the front room of an old outstation home.
The resulting album was released on the APY Lands in the form of a USB slap band containing the whole album, plus a karaoke version complete with scrolling Pitjantjatjara lyrics.
Worry Boss is a story about anxiety. The story focuses on what makes people worry, how that makes them feel and what they can do about it.Worry Boss has been made with the Royal Flying Doctor Service together with communities in Central Australia.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce our new collaboration with 'The South West Murries' - a group of incredible young First Nations artists from Cunnamulla, Queensland. This Desert Pea Media production brought together Elders, community members and young people to create an important conversation about country, culture and community.
The project was funded by Cunnamulla Aboriginal Corporation for Health (CACH) and Paroo Shire Council:Strong Families Strong Community Program, and facilitated/directed by charity organisation, Desert Pea Media.
‘The Ripple Effect' was created in March 2019, the result of a five-day Desert Pea Media music, film & storytelling workshop. Co-written by, and starring, an incredibly talented group of young people, community members and local Elders from the local community - with support from the DPM team and Cunnamulla community members.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
'Ripple Effect' is a bouncy, electro anthem for the Original Nations community of Cunnamulla in Central QLD. The track pushes an agenda of positivity and respect for country and community. It looks at the interconnection of Original Nations people, land and story and the huge impact of historical events on social and emotional well-being for the local community.
Lead DPM Songwriter and Central Arrernte artist Declan Furber-Gillick from Desert Pea Media said "The young people from Cunnamulla took to the song-writng yarn with real determination, courage and open minds. With a balanced commitment to their cultural heritage and to mainstream education, Cully kids really know what they can achieve for themselves, their families and their town. For a place that has a pretty rough history for blackfullahs, these kids are an example of community pride. Cunnamulla Dreaming, Cully represent!".
Special Thanks to Miriam Avery from the Hope Project, Lacey Mack and Julie Fox at Cunnamulla State School P-12, Kerry Crumblin and Ethan Capewell and the team at CACH, Lawrence Anderson (aka Cheesy) at Paroo Shire Council and Allen Wharton (aka Monk).

Mau Power is a lyrical storyteller from Thursday Island in the Torres Straits of Australia,
his artistry is guided by two cultures indigenous and Hip-Hop.
He is revered by the Australian government for championing the Indigenous Aborigine
culture in modern day times.
The Torres Strait Islands is made up of 274 small islands that lie in the beautiful turquoise
waterways that separate The Cape York Peninsula in the northern tip of Australia from
Papua New Guinea. Thursday Island is approximately 4.5 square kilometers of lush
tropical terrain that is still governed by Indigenous knowledge. It is a place where
song and dance play an integral role in the survival of cultural traditions.
For many years, the Indigenous society have been recording their culture through
music and upon the advent of Hip Hop in the region, Mau Power cultivated a subgenre that
will record and tell the story of the Indigenous people. It is the art of storytelling that embodies
the connection of two cultures that makes Mau Power a truly unique Australian artist.
Patrick Mau is the founding Director of One Blood Hidden Image Entertainment
Group, which is the first Torres Strait full-service audio and film production company.
Tarnanthi is a platform for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists from across the country to share important stories. It encourages new beginnings by providing artists with opportunities to create significant new work and to extend their practice.

Tarnanthi is presented in partnership with BHP and with the support of the Government of South Australia.
Senior traditional owners have tasked the North Tanami Ranger group with implementing their land management aspirations and priorities. Traditional land management has been coupled with work directed at addressing contemporary land management issues. To date ranger group activities have included burning, waterhole management, feral animal and weed control, cultural site protection, recording of traditional knowledge, participating flora and fauna surveys and maintaining basic infrastructure at outstations in the IPA. The rangers have been involved in contract-based environmental service delivery, such as weed control and biodiversity survey work, with mining companies and neighbouring pastoralists.
Northern Tanami Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) committee members directed the CLC to re-imagine their IPA Plan of Management, an English-heavy guide book for looking after the IPA. The brief was to create a lush digital resource using spoken Warlpiri that could be accessed both online and offline to mirror the content of the management plan and be navigated through voice commands. The CLC’s hope is that the IPA digital storybooks will help all Warlpiri – from elders to school children – to better understand and support the work to keep country healthy and culture strong. The CLC has made digital storybooks for both the Southern Tanami and the Northern Tanami IPAs. See www.ngurra.org and www.walyalku.org.au

Paul Carmody is a teacher at Amaroo Outdoor Education Centre in Kleinton, southern Queensland.
Located on Jarowair and Giabal land, the centre welcomes more than 5000 students through the gates each year.
Paul is neither a Jarowair nor Giabal man.
His father - the singer-songwriter Kev Carmody - is from the Bunjalung nation, originally located around the northern coastal areas of NSW.
His grandfather is Lama Lama from Cape York in north Queensland.
Growing up, Paul spoke very little Aboriginal language other than English.
“Even though the first 12 to 18 months of my life was on an ant bed floor the rest of the time we had running water and electricity like most of you folks,” explains Paul.
“So language being a part of our everyday lives was not there.
"However the cultural aspects - the bush stuff, the connection to country, the symbiotic relationship of flora and fauna - was very, very strong growing up as kids.”
The education centre has a strong relationship with the Jarowair custodians who maintain, care for and facilitate walks at Gummingurru, a local male initation site.
Now with the guidance and permission of local elders, Paul is helping to share traditional words and local Indigenous culture with the many students who visit each year.

In November 2019 Papunya Tjupi Art Gallery presented their exhibition Tjupi Puli (Honey Ant Mountain). The name Tjupi Puli is an homage to the ancestral dreaming site that rests aside Papunya community sometimes referred to as Warumpi. The showpiece of the exhibition was the old painted Ford Falcon and the accompanying film. With the approval and supervision of Bob Dixon, traditional owner for Tjupi Puli and holder for the associated Tjukurrpa, Watson Corby led a project of painting a broken down Ford Falcon from the seventies that lay beside Tjupi Puli. Watson coordinated a medley of different works painted on the motorcar in an homage to the early painters of Papunya. Watson also directed the short film which can be seen here with colleague Bruce Inkamala behind the camera. Featured on the car are the motifs used to depict the Tjukurrpa of Kaapa Tjampitjimpa, Kumantjayi Long Tjakamarra and Johnny Warungkula. The centrepiece of this project is the recreation of the Tjupi Tjukurrpa story painted on the Papunya School in 1971. Referred to as the ‘honey ant mural’, this work is often cited as marking the beginning of the Western Desert Art movement. Bob Dixon, who watched his father paint the mural as a child, carefully dictated to Watson and the young men how it should be painted. Dennis Kulata Nelson also painted his Kalipinypa Tjukurrpa on the rear side of the car, the Tjukurrpa again inherited from Johnny Warangkula, Denis’ father. Watson’s idea for this project was inspired by his experience talking at Desertmob symposium in 2019. He spoke proudly in Luritja of Papunya history, his grandfather's country and the journey of the young men before hundreds of strangers. His Nephew Zachius Turner confidently translated his story. The experience prompted a nostalgia for Watson and an urge to tell Papunya’s stories. Through the motorcar project Watson ingeniously communicates the narrative of the young men, depicting their exciting new beginnings, which are deeply conscious of their roots.
- “Ngatja family tree kunyu. Palya nyakuntjaku. Ulata tjukurrpa ngatja. Yuwa nganampa tjukurrpa kanyintjaku”. – Bob Dixon
- “This is like a family tree. It’s good for us to see this. There is a whole lot of dreaming here. Our dreaming. Here so that we can hold onto it”. – Bob Dixon

We haven't been able to go fishing or hunting lately so we thought we'd share some footage from a previous fishing trip we did with family.
This fishing trip was quick afternoon trip we did in Roebuck Bay along with Johani's Cousin/Sister Trina Francis and her husband Alphonse Balacky and their Daughter.
Although we didn't catch any spectacular we still had a fun afternoon on the water.

The new film clip for “Ball and Chain” features J-MILLA and the Kabi Kabi dancers. Shot in both Super 8 and HD the clip was directed by Solomon Scopazzi at the historical Majestic Theatre in Pomono on the Sunshine Coast and boasts a beautiful sense of nostalgia intersecting with the now.
“After a shaky start with a cancellation due to Covid we managed to all get together and film the video for “Ball and Chain”. It was a classic day collaborating with J-MILLA, who is just a massive big ball of sunshine and local Kabi Kabi dancers. Plenty of laughs and good times to finish off a weird year and shine some light into an otherwise serious track.”
Previously released tracks from “Jan Juc Moon; “Stoney Creek” and “We Deserve To Dream” are streaming strongly with over 12 million streams globally and gaining momentum. Xavier Rudd’s international tour dates kicked off with strong ticket sales in all eighteen countries and sell out shows in Amsterdam, Antwerp and Brussels, the latter three cities recently adding second shows due to popular demand.
Nothing compares to experiencing Xavier Rudd in concert who is truly at his best on stage in the company of his fans. Acoustic guitar in hand, engulfed by an ever more complex scaffold of didgeridoos, percussion and various eclectic instruments, Xavier cuts an utterly unique and compelling figure. One of Australia’s most successful international artists Xavier Rudd has amassed huge followings in Australia, North America and Europe – he chooses idyllic destinations such as Spain, Portugal and Croatia and of course his home country Australia where his music, his message, and the environment around him all meet in stunning synchronicity.

In 2018, Ku Arts coordinated two carving camps on both Nukunu and Adnyamathanha country. The camps included language workshops supported by the Mobile Language Team, and the study of objects made by direct ancestors of the Adnyamathanha and Nukunu participants in partnership with South Australian Museum.
Through making tools and studying language, Adnyamathanha and Nukunu men were able to deepen their understanding of the way their ancestors made life and interacted with the environment. Through sharing skills and knowledge, the men of the neighbouring language groups have not only produced important artistic works but have deepened friendships that will help to keep Adnyamathanha and Nukunu carving practice strong.

Desert Pea Media are very proud to present the release of the debut single from ‘The Hill’. A collective of Indigenous young people, community members and Elders in Broken Hill, NSW.
Back in June 2023, the DPM Creative Team spent a week working with the Broken Hill Community, in partnership with Making Tracks - Far West NSW, an organisation focused on inspiring and empowering disengaged youth in Broken Hill & Far West NSW.
‘Butterfly’ is an emotive, melodic trap banger that articulates a very brave and inspiring conversation about the hard realities of growing up and living in Far West NSW. The song explores the impact of trauma and grief on the nervous system, and points towards positive pathways of connection to country and cultural identity.
Desert Pea Media is a community-driven media organisation that has been working to amplify the voices of remote and regional communities in Australia for over two decades. Through innovative arts and digital media initiatives, Desert Pea Media empowers individuals to tell their stories and celebrate their unique perspectives. www.desertpeamedia.com
Collaboratively written and produced by Desert Pea Media (featuring music by Sydney-based artist PEVCE.

Kicking back with the fam an we keeping it real keeping it real keeping it real,
Sunset and we keeping it chill keeping it chill,
Moonlight over silver city - city lights an the nights feel still
Trying to fix this broken hill, broken hill
Welcome to 2880 where them drugs get sold like gravy,
Ain’t nothing been going on lately,
This towns been slowly fading,
Its thrills that everybody chasing,
Fight or flight we escaping
Trauma got my heart beat racing
I don’t feel like waking
My people fall through the cracks. Bored. Lack of support. In need of a talk.
Needing a walk. Fighting these thoughts. Going off track. Fighting a war in my head.
Under attack. Not enough said. Is it the lead. I feel it inside. It’s cold again.
I can’t hide from these butterflies. No matter how hard I try.
HOOK
Butterfly I don’t know where ima go but I’m gone try,
Butterfly butterfly deep inside
I let it go I let them fly, Butterfly
I’m feeling low I’m feeling high

We do this for our elders
They kept us safe an sheltered
They taught us how to be selfless,
So we do this for you
We do this for them

This video features Morgan, a nurse dedicated to helping people experiencing difficulties with crystal methamphetamine use. She shares her experiences working in a challenging but supportive environment, and the importance of readiness for change. Morgan highlights that resources and support are available to help health workers and people on their recovery journey.
This is one from a series of three videos that explore the impact of crystal methamphetamine through creative interpretations of testimonies. The three lived experience stories are told from the perspective of someone with experience using crystal methamphetamine, a mother of someone who uses crystal methamphetamine, and a health worker who works with people who use crystal methamphetamine. These videos aim to provide a voice to people with lived experience of crystal methamphetamine use, overcome stigma and harmful stereotypes, and provide hope for people with lived experience.

'Bright Lights Big City'; is the first single from "The Genesis Project", featuring Yothu Yindi.
It’s about how we live in a fast moving, shrinking global village with all the pressures and deadlines of modern life. How we forget to live in the moment and reflect that life is for living now; and how we can remain centered and strong and think about what is really important to us and remain balanced.
'Bright Lights Big City' is a guitar driven song accompanied with yidaki beats that travel along a solid groove in the rhythmic bass and drum lines.
Released on June 13, 2014 with a perceptive film clip directed and produced by National Indigenous Music Award winning film-maker Naina Sen, the single 'Bright Lights Big City' is taken from "the Genesis Project" due out September 2014.
Produced by charismatic rocker Stevie Salas (ex American Idol Musical Director) for South Apache Productions, (an LA producer and talented musician in his own right) who has worked with the likes of Mick Jagger, Aerosmith, Parliament Funk, Justin Timberlake and Rod Stewart; the upcoming "Genesis Project" heralds in a new dawn for young supergroup East Journey.

Discrimination Stories - A Petrol Station
Award winning Australian short film, Two Men, directed by Dominic Allen and shot in the Kimberly town of Fitzroy Crossing by Joel Betts, features a robust and dynamic cast of indigenous Australian non actors. With an original soundtrack by Melbourne artist Felix Riebl, Based on Kafka's short story, Two Men Running, Allen's short film has been screened internationally at film festivals including New York, Prague, London, Melbourne and Sydney and in 2009 was a Dendy Australian Short Film of the Year finalist.
The film was instrumental in supporting director Dominic Allen's Emerging Australian Filmmaker Award at the Melbourne International Film Festival and the 2009 Inside Film Rising Talent Award.
2009 MIFF Jury member Deb Verhoeven remarked "Two Men proves that the simplest scenario can provide the perfect premise for conveying the most profound insights. But (Allen's) key achievement is to understand that even the largest ideas are best told with brevity and the most serious with humour."
Two Men was made with the support of Yiriman, a community initiated and community driven project supported by the Kimberley Aboriginal Law and Culture Centre which aims to build stories, strength and resilience in the Kimberley's youth.

Vessels of Life installation was part of a larger project called Collisions - a cross cultural artists collaboration project and exhibition at the Shepparton Art Museum.
Aboriginal artists Aunty Cynthia Hardie, Eva Ponting and and Lyn Thorpe worked with Japanese born artist Naomi Ota over an 8 month period to create the installation Vessels of Life . Each of the women are highly regarded for their specialist skills and knowledge of textiles and cultural traditions. Combining organic, raw and man-made materials, the artwork engages with diverse cultural histories, artistic traditions and expertise such as weaving and making fibrous textiles. In Aboriginal cultures coolamons were traditionally used by women to carry food, water or cradle babies. In Vessels of Life, their inclusion represents spiritual birthplace, cycles of life and gathering sustenance. Silk is widely recognised in both Asia and European cultures for its strength, beauty and resilience and the Japanese have long utilised silk worms for craft-based textile production. Within the work, raw silk threads are placed tree-like in the space create a sense of movement and flow, complementing the suspended mobiles which refer to blood-lines, genealogy and a sense human connection.
Established in 2006, Kaiela Arts is an Aboriginal art centre located in Shepparton. We provide an important space for artists and the community to connect with art and culture. Our work drives important outcomes for both our artists and the broader Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal community.

Artists receive training and mentoring at the centre, and the work of many artists has been exhibited around the State, in some cases winning prestigious awards.
We offer an accessible studio and social space for local artists to connect, create and share art. The centre is a welcoming environment for everyone to learn about Aboriginal cultural arts.
We provide training and professional development opportunities for member artists at all levels, including exhibitions and collaborations with artists and non arts organisations outside the gallery.

Part of a series of seven short films incorporating illustration and animation about some of the artists from Ampilatwatja. Developed by Lara Damiani. Produced by Caroline Hunter and Lara Damiani
The Artists of Ampilatwatja community was established in 1999 near Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. The work produced by the artists is recognisably distinct from other Aboriginal artistic communities, due to the application of fine dots and the often bright and child-like figurative depiction of the land.
Most of the artists paint Arreth, which translates to ‘strong bush medicine’, demonstrating a deep connection to country. A veritable source of life, the land has provided and sustained Alyawarr people for generations, as every plant and animal has a vital role to play within the ecological system. The paintings pay homage to the significance and use of traditional bush medicine, allowing an insight into their community. Yet underneath the iridescent surfaces, there is an underlying sense that there is more to these landscapes than meets the eye. In keeping with the religious laws, the artists reveal only a small amount of knowledge to the uninitiated. The esoteric information that is held sacred to these artists and their people is concealed from the public and layered underneath the common visual narrative, masked by the delicate layered dots of the painting. The many levels of interpretation permit artists to present their art to an often culturally untutored public without compromising its religious nature. Artists talk of two broad levels of interpretation, the “inside” stories which are restricted to those of the appropriate ritual standing, and the “outside” stories which are open to all.

Lyric Video for Track 2 of UPK#6.
Written Bill Davis, Performed Elijah Pinta Connelly, from Pipalyatjara.
That man right in front of you is continually miserable. He groans, he behaves like a poor thing. He is sad.
That man just over there, he obsesses, he overthinks, he is not happy, his home is squalid.
The children are watching, watching, now they are copying, copying.
Now this man just here is living happily, he cares for his home and it is clean. He looks after his family.
The children are watching, watching, they are copying, copying.
UPK stands for Uwankara Palyanku Kanyintjaku; a Pitjantjatjara expression meaning ‘everybody building and caring for the future’.
Using music is an agent of change, the songwriters involved take aim the root causes of hurt they see around them, like petrol sniffing, alcohol and drug addiction, waste management, care-for-country, hunting, and homesickness.
The content of UPK songs is not about blame or victimhood but a musical effort to address the factors that contribute to, or impact on, good living.
Creating awareness is the intention of UPK music because it is the key precedent to positive action.
UPK6 was recorded at West Bore in the APY Lands using an open-air studio with a hessian fence for wind-break, used carpet to keep the dirt down, and digital recording gear housed in the front room of an old outstation home.
The resulting album was released on the APY Lands in the form of a USB slap band containing the whole album, plus a karaoke version complete with scrolling Pitjantjatjara lyrics.
Alec Baker, Peter Mungkuri and Mr Kunmanara Pompey are three senior artists and respected leaders from Indulkana community on the APY Lands, SA. As young men, they were renowned stockmen and in 2017 they coordinated a men’s camp at the local cattle station. Influenced by their ongoing love for cowboy and western films and country music, they created their own spaghetti western: Never Stop Riding.
This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council for the Arts, its arts funding and advisory body.
The 5th Annual On-Country Bush Meeting at Yule River was another extraordinary gathering bringing together more than 400 Traditional Owners from across the Pilbara to discuss issues affecting them and their families.

PAV has made significant progress working together to address issues including language preservation, remote housing, the protection of Aboriginal heritage, Constitutional Recognition, health, education, justice, and the welfare of children.
This year, the 40-strong group welcomed more than 20 new members and was officially endorsed and recognised by both Federal and State Aboriginal Affairs Ministers Senator Nigel Scullion and Ben Wyatt and others.
PAV was acknowledged as a historic union of language groups working as one voice to call on all levels of government to improve living conditions for Aboriginal West Australians.

The title track from Alice Skye's debut album, released 6 April 2018 through the CAAMA Music, Australia's oldest Aboriginal record label.
‘Friends with Feelings’ is a collection of songs taken from journal entries Alice Skye has written over the years. “There are different landscapes and times in my life that these songs are a product of,” says Alice.
“The title track was written after being told by someone to think of my emotions as colours. I’m deeply preoccupied with identity, it’s something that gives me stability - understanding my culture and who I am. This whole album for me is a reminder of where I was, where I’ve been and where I’m still going.”
From Country Victoria, Alice grew up aside the sandstone mountains and wildflowers of the Grampians. Still inspired by her roots, Alice’s songs resonate with a sensitivity and maturity well beyond her years. Accompanied by the gentle and hauntingly sparse melodies of a piano score, her journal entries are transformed into well-crafted, articulate lyrics on love, loss and life.

HOODLUM - Dallas Woods FEAT Jerome Farah
“Tryna label me a hoodlum, Tryna say I got no good blood in my veins
I’m a say I’m a good man
My melanin got you feeling some type of way…”
Dallas Woods releases his sophomore single Hoodlum featuring Jerome Farah on Friday 7th December 2018.
Old school hip-hop meets new. Hoodlum is hard hitting with strong lyrics, but in his inimitable style Dallas Woods softens the blow with cheeky wordplay and a sweet hook. The hook adds a copacetic element whilst retaining the lyrical intensity giving you a comfortable place to sonically soak in this message.
“Stigmas and stereotypes really drove me to write this song. Seeing it unfold in front of my own eyes on multiple occasions was a real motive not to let this subject slide with out bringing awareness to the matter.
As a young Aboriginal man who was raised in both worlds I see how stigmas and stereotypes play a big role in how the everyday person perceives another’s ways and beliefs without knowledge and that in itself breaks innocent people, and in most cases it also stops one from trying to break barriers. Only the brave talk but it should not be that way one voice is powerful but many will bring change. I write with genuine belief the message will be heard.” says Dallas Woods
His cutting lyrics and quick flow brought Dallas immediate attention. When Dallas released debut track “9 times out of 10” earlier this year it was instantly added to triple j,RAGE, topped the AMRAP charts and earned him a pivotal performance slot at Splendour In the Grass. Here he blew the crowd away with his dynamic one-man show that packs a punch of ten man.
“Labels and racism do not go together,” says Dallas Woods
Produced by Jerome Farah at Next Level Studios, Brunswick Melbourne.

‘Alpiri’ is a form of motivational or instructional speech traditionally used in the early morning in Anangu camps. Usually an elder would get up early to broadcast a message to people waking in the camp. In the alpiri video series, we have produced short videos in which senior Anangu leaders send messages out to viewers.
Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce our new collaboration with the Western Aranda community in Ntaria (Hermannsburg) NT, in the red heart of Australia's Central Desert. This production brought together Elders, community members and young people to create a conversation about connection to country, culture and community.
Funded and managed by the Namatjira Legacy Trust, this production was part of the Trust's broader program of supporting, strengthening and celebrating Western Aranda culture and country. The project was coordinated on the ground by local community member David Roennfeldt and staff at Ntaria School.
‘Pmara Nurnaka' was created in March 2019, the result of a five-day Desert Pea Media storytelling workshop - co-written by, and starring, an incredibly talented group of young people, community members and local Elders from the local community. - with support from the DPM team, local linguists and School Staff.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
'Pmara Nurnaka' (meaning 'good country' in Western Aranda Language) is a story about country, culture and community pride. A soulful, funk/hip hop track from Australia's heartland, this production is a contemporary expression of the importance of community, connection, country, culture, family and language.
The DPM team feels deeply honoured to learn, share, create and build friendships and connection with the community in Ntaria. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved. These are friendships and experiences that are deeply valued and respected.
This project featured the musical direction and production of acclaimed music producer Josh Nicholas (aka Hazy). We thank you brother for your artistic vision and awesome work.
Special thanks to Project Managers Sophia Marinos, Koren Wheatley and David Roennfeldt, Aunty
Rosabelle Namatjira, Uncle Marcus Wheeler, Aunty Betty Wheeler, Uncle Mostyn Kentiltja and Uncle
Georgia Kentiltja. Big thanks to Ntaria School for your hospitality and all the community members for
making us feel welcome, sharing your stories and teaching us about your country and community.

When I’m soaking in the sunshine, singing my song
Spirit in my bloodline, my people are strong
Wurta pmara marra nurnaka (home is good), where I belong
Where my country, culture, my skin

Traditional owners worked alongside CLC staff over 15 years to plan and implement management of the Northern Tanami IPA which was declared at a ceremony in Lajamanu in 2007.
A management committee oversees planning and decision making for all aspects of the IPA. Membership reflects traditional land ownership, corresponding broadly with northern, southern, eastern and eastern regions if IPA. The committee meets at least 2 times per year. Four main management themes guide the work of the NTIPA. The traditional owners set these goals with the CLC.
Yapa have been looking after country for a long time. The IPA is helping yapa to keep using yapa knowledge, laws and customary land practices (ways of looking after country) to keep country strong.
Yapa have always managed their country and have rules about who looks after country. The IPA has many important plants, animals and land forms. Since kardiya came to Australia new problems like weeds, feral animals and big wildfires have been coming in are making problems for country. The IPA is helping to stop these new threats using yapa and kardiya knowledge.
Both yapa and kardiya have knowledge and laws about how to look after country. The IPA is helping to teach young people and community members about these things so future generations can keep country strong.
Looking after country is a good job for yapa. The IPA is helping to create jobs for Rangers. It is also making jobs for yapa elders to teach Warlpiri Rangers and working with other partners to create more job opportunities out on country.
Northern Tanami Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) committee members directed the CLC to re-imagine their IPA Plan of Management, an English-heavy guide book for looking after the IPA. The brief was to create a lush digital resource using spoken Warlpiri that could be accessed both online and offline to mirror the content of the management plan and be navigated through voice commands. The CLC’s hope is that the IPA digital storybooks will help all Warlpiri – from elders to school children – to better understand and support the work to keep country healthy and culture strong. The CLC has made digital storybooks for both the Southern Tanami and the Northern Tanami IPAs. See www.ngurra.org and www.walyalku.org.au
This video highlights the rangers' skill in motoring water places in contract-based environmental service delivery work for mining companies.
Ranger activities include burning, waterhole management, feral animal and weed control, cultural site protection, recording of traditional knowledge, participating flora and fauna surveys and maintaining basic infrastructure at outstations in the IPA. The rangers have been involved in contract-based environmental service delivery, such as weed control and biodiversity survey work, with mining companies and neighbouring pastoralists.
Senior traditional owners have tasked the North Tanami Ranger group with implementing their land management aspirations and priorities. Traditional land management has been coupled with work directed at addressing contemporary land management issues.

Frank Yamma is a traditional Pitjantjatjara man from Australia's Central Desert and speaks five languages. An extraordinary songwriter and an exceptional guitarist, Frank also has an incredible voice which is rich, deep and resonant.
Regarded by many as one of Australia’s most important Indigenous songwriters, Yamma’s brutally honest tales of alcohol abuse, cultural degradation, respect for the old law and the importance of country are spine tingling. Frank has the ability to cross cultural and musical boundaries and constantly sets new standards through his music.
Frank Yamma's 'Countryman' was recorded at an isolated run-down country house in Taralga near Goulburn, 'Countryman' is an album full of great songs of longing, romance and immense beauty.
'She Cried' is a harrowing, heartbreaking story of too many people living on the streets of Alice, Port Augusta or Adelaide – losing their culture, drinking too much, no-one to look out for them. A woman in trouble is looking for a way to kill the pain, trying to find another way out.
Yolŋu songman Daniel Wilfred performs all over the world with his voice and biḻma(clapping sticks). Last year, he travelled with his uncle David Wilfred from the top to the bottom of Australia to share his manikay (ceremonial song) with students and to collaborate with the Australian Art Orchestra. Featuring footage from his performance at the Arts Centre Melbourne, Djuwaḻpada is Daniel’s story – about the strength of culture and the power of collaboration.

When Aunty Lee Healy decided to make the first dictionary for the Taungurung language, she didn’t know what she was in for.
The dictionary took four years to make and Aunty Lee says, “I don’t think my mind stopped.”
“It became my passion. I would get up at 3.30 in the morning and do it. I was doing it seven days a week.”
Taungurung country is much of Central Victoria: from Kyneton to the west, Euroa to the north, Lake Nilahcootie to the east and Great Dividing Range to the south. When Taungurung country was settled and people were forced into missions, “We lost everything,” Aunty Lee says. “We lost the kinship system, our ceremonies, and our language.”
In 2001, the Taungurung Elders Committee formed a committee to revive the language. Language workers built a database of over three hundred words and ran community language camps.
Aunty Lee and her family were heavily involved in reviving language. The dictionary is dedicated to the work of Aunty Lee's mum, Aunty and Uncle, and acknowledges all the work and passion of language workers and Elders in reviving Taungurung language.
"I wanted to get the language back."
Over time, learning language and attending language camps with her kids, Aunty Lee felt something wasn’t right.
“We were pronouncing language with English sounds and it just wasn’t our language. I wanted to get it back to how our ancestors spoke."
In 2006 Aunty Judy Monk-Slattery-Patterson retired as Language Worker and Aunty Lee took over the job. She believed a dictionary was the way to research and recover the Taungurung language to its original form before colonisation.
"I had my Aunty Judy’s permission to make the dictionary and that’s where I started.”
A jigsaw puzzle of historical sources
With the help of the Victorian Aboriginal Corporation of Languages, Aunty Lee pored through 19th century historical sources - diaries, letters, and reports written by colonial settlers - in search of records of the Taungurung language.
She wanted to work out each letter and sound to match the fluency of her ancestors and to put cultural knowledge to the words.
Using the historical records was not easy.
Settlers came from different parts of Britain and recorded Taungurung words through the lens of their accent. For some Taungurung words like ngarrak (mountain), Lee encountered four to six different spellings.
They used an English alphabet to record sounds they had never heard.
Aunty Lee also had to decipher the grammar of Taungurung from these colonial sources.
“We’ve got suffixes in our language, so there was more than just words. I had to figure out what the suffix was, and I could get frustrated cos I’m not a linguist at all.“
“I will say that I’m grateful for them because they wrote something down. Or else it would have been lost forever.”
Community process
Throughout the making of the dictionary, the community was consulted. The dictionary has its own orthography, a pronunciation and spelling system that the community agreed on, with one sound and one spelling.
“To see it and say it,” is the intention.
“You’re looking at adults trying to learn a second language,” Aunty Lee points out.
“From going to Taungurung language camps, I knew how I wanted the dictionary designed and how other people would want it.”
Dictionary contents
The cover of the dictionary is the Taungurung possum skin cloak. It tells Taungurung creation stories
and these are explained at the front of the book.
“We put the possum skin cloak on the cover because it represents every person in the Taungurung community,” Aunty Lee says.
The dictionary begins with a pronunciation guide, and then Taungurung-English and English - Taungurung word list.
Using the dictionary is easy, says Lee. “You can go straight to an English word at the back, find that word at the front of the book and you will also get cultural knowledge.”
My pride and joy stick
One of Aunty Lee's favourite hobbies is pyrography, making art on wood through burning. So it was natural that she burnt a stick to mark the dictionary’s completion.
"This is my ‘pride and joy’ stick. It symbolises the work of my journey."
When the Victorian Corporation for Aboriginal Languages published the dictionary in 2011, and Aunty Lee had the 400 page book in her hands for the first time, she had to sit down and take it all in. “I was crying,” she says.
“I thought, the community is going to be so proud. Everyone kept saying to me, “You’ve done it. And you had no idea what linguistics was!”
“It was a lot of work but it didn’t matter because it come from the heart.”
Aunty Lee Healy is now doing a degree in Linguistics at Monash University and has plans for a grammar book for the Taungurung language.

This video was originally contributed to the ABC Open Mother Tongue project, which invited Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to share a story about their mother tongue.
During NAIDOC week this year, ABC Open Producer Jeff Licence spent a day in Ballina on the NSW North Coast connecting with indigenous language teacher Rick Cook, the Bundjalung language and the local community.
Jeff held an ABC Open Mother Tongue stall, inviting anyone who came along to choose a Bundjalung word, write it on a blackboard with the English translation and pose for a photograph.
Alongside the Photographs, Rick Cook describes his experience with rediscovering and teaching the Bundjalung language.
The result is a lovely collection of Bundjalung words, faces and ideas about indigenous language.
If you want to know more about the back-story to this, read Jeff's blog.
Many thanks to interviewee Rick Cook and volunteers Ghita Fiorelli and Jaya Morphett.

The Hermannsburg Potters are based in Western Aranda Country at Ntaria, they create vibrant handmade terracotta pots using hand coil and pinch technique These unique artworks encompass collective and individually lived histories of the artists’ distinct country. The ladies were also members of the Ntaria Ladies Choir, which also sings in the Central Australian Aboriginal Women’s Choir who, each year are invited to open the Desert Mob Exhibition and Symposium. Sit back and enjoy a day of song and pots.
The western desert art movement began in the 1970’s in the Aboriginal community of Papunya, it is here where senior men painted murals on the school walls and the now famous Papunya Boards, this started a truly Australian Art Movement. The recently built men’s painting room and the revival of men’s painting at Papunya Tjupi Arts is testament to the legacy of those old men. We hear from Traditional Owner and artist Bob Dixon, emerging artist Keanu Nelson and art worker Herman Corby Tjapaltjarri.
Papunya Tjupi Arts’ women artists are renowned for the quality of their work they are held in major national and international and private collections. Join senior artist Mona Gorey Nangala, Candy Nelson Nakamarra and artist and artworker Sharon Butcher Napanangka as they take us inside the women’s painting space at Papunya Tjupi Arts.

Healthy Stores - 5 Research Collaboration
You are invited by one of Australia’s most senior Aboriginal Christian Leaders, Aunty Jean Phillips, to a national prayer event on the evening before January 26 to #ChangeTheHeart of this nation. Since 2017 these services have been held in every state and territory with the support of Aboriginal Christian Leader, Brooke Prentis, and Common Grace, a movement of over 50,000 people pursuing Jesus and justice. This year in light of the challenge of COVID-19 one national moment has emerged, a time to pray in unison by Tuning in Together to #ChangeTheHeart of Australia. This annual event before January 26 — a day of mourning for our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, is an act of healing in these lands now called Australia. Aunty Jean has been educating Australian Christians for decades on the true history of these lands now called Australia, saying “Your history is our history, our history is your history.” Join a time of lament and hope, as together we learn and acknowledge the true history of Australia, lament the injustices and present-day disadvantages facing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and pray for a nation “built on truth, justice, love and hope”.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to present a new collaboration with the community of Jabiru, NT. A mining and services town in the centre of dual-world heritage listed Kakadu National Park. The community of Jabiru is also considered 'the gateway to Arnhem Land'.
This production was created in September of 2020 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process between Desert Pea Media, Red Lily Health (a local Indigenous-led Health Service) and an incredibly talented group of students at the Jabiru Area School, who represent several clan groups of Kakadu and Arnhem Land. Also involved were local community members, elders, artists, and community organisations.
The overall purpose of the broader project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people. Focusing on cultural identity, health and positive choices.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
We as a team feel deeply honoured and grateful to learn, share and create with the Jabiru community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
'Mayali' is the Gundjeihmi/Kunwinjku word for 'cultural knowledge' and is used by several language groups in the region. The song was co-directed/written by and features Victor Rostron of Wildfire Munwurrk Band..
Hailing from the extremely remote Stone Country of Central Arnhem Land, Victor speaks and sings in the critically endangered aboriginal languages of Dalabon, Kune and Rembarrnga. A highly respected senior culture man, singer, songwriter, artist and prolific musician, Victor reaches across cultures and holds keys to knowledge that bridges the gap across ancient and contemporary Australia.
An insightful lyricist, passionate collaborator and truly astounding vocalist, he is a creative force and one of Australia’s most important voices. We are deeply honoured to call Victor a friend and collaborator, and his contribution, and his family's contribution were a huge part of the project outcomes.
The project was produced by DPM in-house Music Producer - Josh Nicholas. We thank you brother for your artistic vision and awesome work. Featuring guitar samples from local musician and guitarist from Black Rock Band - Graham Rostron.
Thanks to Patricia Miller and the staff at Red Lily Health. Also to Gundjeihmi Aboriginal Corporation and Jabiru Area School.
Special thanks to the TO's of Jabiru - The Mirrar People, and all of the Clan Groups of Kakadu that welcomed us and shared their country for the creation of this production. We are humbled and grateful for your trust and support.

In 2018, Ku Arts coordinated two carving camps on both Nukunu and Adnyamathanha country. The camps included language workshops supported by the Mobile Language Team, and the study of objects made by direct ancestors of the Adnyamathanha and Nukunu participants in partnership with South Australian Museum.
Through making tools and studying language, Adnyamathanha and Nukunu men were able to deepen their understanding of the way their ancestors made life and interacted with the environment. Through sharing skills and knowledge, the men of the neighbouring language groups have not only produced important artistic works but have deepened friendships that will help to keep Adnyamathanha and Nukunu carving practice strong.

A song about the Women of the Outback with the idea to write from the ABC programme Landline.
IOP were gifted with the opportunity to listen, learn and explore the local landscape. We were especially honoured to be educated by the Elders about sacred dreamings of the land. From these teachings the students wrote about some of these dreamtime stories they learnt about in the lyrics of this song.
With a powerful chorus written in language it translates to:
'We love our home, we love this land
Walking together hand in hand
Culture is strong, culture is important'
The IOP Team would like to send a big thank you to all the elders, staff and youth of the community for coming together to make this video possible.

IHHP & Miwatj Health visited the island of Milingimbi (Yurriwi) to produce this song 'Better Than That'. As part of the Yaka Buny'djurr Ngarali campaign with Miwatj Health, this song was written with the students and community to promote healthy lifestyles. Yaka Buny'djurr Ngarali translates to 'Dont Smoke'. Healthy lifestyles choices are about be promoting sport, dance and healthy eating, and promoting health seeking behaviours. We are hoping thru this campaign to de-normalising tobacco use.
Thank you to the community of Milingimbi (Yurriwi), Milingimbi Community Education Centre, Sport and Rec staff, ALPA RJCP and the elders for organising the Bungul.

Women of the Warlpiri people from Central Australia perform a traditional dance at the yearly Cultural Festival in Barunga, an Aboriginal community 80 kilometres from Katherine.
Scenes during the Rodeo in 1978 at Seven mile in Lajamanu, a Warlpiri Aboriginal community about 550 kilometres south west of Katherine on the edge of the Tanami Desert. There is horse and bull riding, "catch the greasy pig" for the kids and a school food stall. This was recorded with an old 8 mm film camera, so the technical quality is poor.
Men from Lajamanu, an Aboriginal community about 550 kilometres south west of Katherine on the edge of the Tanami Desert are painted up and perform "purlapa", men's corroboree, at dusk. This was recorded with an old 8 mm film camera, so the technical quality is poor.
Djarragun College students from the Torres Strait islands perform traditional dances during the Townsville Cultural Fest. This is a mixed group of boys and girls from different islands. The dance is from Boigu Island, in the far north of the Torres Strait. The song is by Afa Anau and the dance is choreographed by Thomas Matthew. It is about going out by boat to an island called Warrulkawa (Turtle Island), going along the Papua New Guinea coast to Dauan Island.

Five years is a long time in the lives of men. In the life of a country it’s the blink of an eye.
Balang Lewis and the four senior Wagalak, Rembarrnga and Dalabon Songmen on this landmark Australian album are all sadly passed since its original, strictly limited release in August 2007. But their songs, as captured in an inspired collaboration with some of the most respected and inventive contemporary musicians in Australia, will live forever.
Songs from Walking With Spirits is a unique document to celebrate the potency of an ancient storytelling tradition. For more than 80 years, ethnomusicologists have travelled to the Beswick/ Wugularr community east of Katherine to witness the rare gravity of First Nations Songmen singing their country. A constant and indelible presence in a changing world, these men are keepers of the codes that unlock the map of kin, country and culture.
It was the late actor, singer, musician and Beswick elder Balang T. E. Lewis (The Chant of Jimmy Blacksmith, The Shadow King) who brought Roy Ashley, Micky Hall, Victor Hood and Jimmy Wesan together with revered Daddy Cool guitarist Ross Hannaford (who also passed in 2016), Gurrumul bassist Michael Hohnen and select other rock/ jazz/ contemporary musicians to help these ancient songs of country resonate anew.
What at first glance might seem like an odd pairing of musical cultures, in retrospect can be seen as a unique experiment in Australian genre-bending and blending.
The results are unlike anything heard before in Indigenous or western music: a breathtaking sound and energy that brings progressive dialogue to timeless concepts in an era when the promise of First Nations recognition has returned to the forefront of national awareness.

This is the full film compilation of the six short films by the stArts with D Performance Ensemble as part of the multi-arts exhibition "Strong Feelings". This film was also showcased as part of the National Portrait Gallery's "Portrait: 23" Exhibition in Canberra.
Films:
"Listen"
As a way to introduce the audience to people, place and culture, ‘Listen’ began as a poem written by the group. It was translated into Auslan offering creative choreographic material for the artists to work with. This developed into a film and is an important reminder that these artists have stories to tell and they will tell them in their own ways.
"Go Back There"
Janice Carroll’s song ‘Go Back There’ vocalises her love for her family and desire to return to her country. When hearing the song it was clear to everyone that she needed to return to Pukatja/ Ernabella, for the first time in years. This film captures heart-warming displays of connection to land and people, beautiful scenery and exuberant family members!
"My Song Dress"
Lizzie Trew is a young Pitjantjatjara and Arrernte woman whose creativity shines in this film. Initially her idea was to compose a song. The complexities of the sounds and lyrics she created became the force behind her ‘Song Dress’ as she wanted to ‘see’ the music. Lizzie designed the dress, and painted the fabric, which matches the rhythm, flow and beats of the music. Alongside some of her animation work, this film showcases how her dress makes her feel. Lizzie is a creative phenomenon.
"Ntaria"
Ntaria was created celebrating the country of the awesome artist Caleb McMillan. Caleb’s deep connection to his family is paramount in this film and his gentle heart and infectious personality envelop all those who meet him. This film offers a window into seeing those deep connections, history and day-to-day life in Ntaria (Hermannsburg). The film has a haunting soundtrack of song created by Caleb, exploring what he loves about his homeland.
"DJ Brandon Williams"
Brandon Williams has always dreamed of being a world-famous DJ. To play a banging tune and for people around the globe to hear it, what an achievement! Well, that is exactly what happened. The song was set free, the people pressed play and the dancing began!! Brandon’s epic track forms the backing to this incredible film clip, connecting the rest of the world to the Central Desert through some seriously powerful beats.
"Super Powered"
A collaboration between the fellas of stArts with D, Super Powered is about super strengths and where the artists feel strong. We can take a trip with them to Darwin and cruise around Mparntwe (Alice Springs) while they show their superpowers. A collage of talent is behind this film. With animations, songs, soundtracks and costumes, it is an empowering feast for the senses. What are your superpowers? Where do you feel strong?

In the NAIDOC 2023 year 'For Our Elders', the Goldfields Aboriginal Language Centre created a series of films ensuring Goldfields Elders have a voice. A film has been made, one in each community in the Goldfields, featuring an Elder talking about the democratic process of voting.
This is a film from Warakurna Community in the Goldfields region of Western Australia and Elder, Nerida Martin is discussing her voting story with Shannon Yates. Dr. Lizzie Ellis kindly provides her thoughts at the end of the film.
With the 'Voice Referendum' coming up later in 2023, it is the perfect time to ensure that Elders have a chance to record their thoughts and wishes with regards to young people participating in the referendum and using their democratic voting rights.
This film is in Ngaanyatjarra language. A second version of the film will be released in due course with English subtitles. However, it is important that Ngaanyatjarra speakers have an opportunity to speak in their own voice without interpretation in this, the year 'For Our Elders' 2023.
This lovely short film was made by the Goldfields Aboriginal Language Centre team with Tjupan ladies, Edie Ulrich and Marjorie Stubbs. Filming and editing film maker Rodney Stratton.

It’s not often I cook prawns but I was summoned by the family to cook 2kg of them at the beach and so I decided a Cajun style flavour would be good to try!
Cooked these on a local park bbq in Yeppoon next to the Lagoon and used some foil to block the drain so I could retain as much of the moisty-ness as I could. Made this up as I cooked, turned out deadly and I reckon some of you seafood lovers might like to try it too!

- NZ White Wine
- Cajun Seasoning
Method: (video for reference)
I just cooked the garlic, shallots and chilli in oil for a minute or so before adding the prawns (cleaned & peeled). Cooked those for a minute or so before adding the butter, lemon, Cajun seasoning and dill. Kept the heat up, cooked those until almost done, added the white wine to deglaze the bbq (loosen the browning for more flavour) and finished with the parsley! Always gotta hit it with the parsley ? for me I don’t cook prawns often so I used a thermometer to check the internal temp and once they were over 65 degrees Celsius they were ready. Family enjoyed them and yeah turned out alright.
Let me know if you give it a crack

How to make Fried Scones
This track was written, recorded and filmed as part of a mentoring process with Toby Finlayson and Matthew Priestley from Desert Pea Media and a group of 3 young men from Mungindi, NSW
The project is called 'Step By Step' is an innovative new cultural media program that looks at empowering young people to record, learn and transform local stories into contemporary popular culture forms such as hip-hop, film productions and performance.
'Step By Step' is a way of educating, raising awareness and re-engaging young people and communities with community, culture and country.
'In A Box' is a short film created by the DPM Creative Team back in 2018, in collaboration with Wiradjuri community member and hip-hop artist from Forbes NSW, Marley Carr.
This film is an outcome of a 10-day Desert Pea Media storytelling workshop. Co-written by Marley Carr, and starring Marley Carr and Kirra Nean.
This story, alongside a song/music video production came from a group of community members, Elders and young people, who came together as part of an important, facilitated conversation about mental health, suicide and social & emotional wellbeing for local young people.
Part of an ongoing DPM project series called ‘Break It Down – Conversations around Mental Health’ funded by Western NSW Primary Health Network. The program looks to create awareness and conversation around wellbeing – breaking down stigmas and connecting community with local health services.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
This project featured the musical direction and production of DPM producer Josh Nicholas (aka Hazy).
Special thanks to Project Managers Kaye Mulligan from Yoorana Gunya also a huge thanks to Barry Merrit, Aunty Aileen Allen, Kirra Nean and Marley Carr and all the community members for making us feel welcome, sharing your stories and teaching us about your country and community.

How to make Garlic Naan ?
Try this for your next curry or if you simply need emotional support ??❤️
**Do not recommend this all the time but it is nice once in a while!**
Ingredients for the Naan:
250g plain flour
1 teaspoon of Instant yeast
Salt
Sugar
Greek yoghurt
(Roughly) 100mls of tempered water (not too hot or cold)
Cooking oil
Ingredients for the Garlic butter:
1 garlic clove finely chopped or grated
Parsley or coriander if you’re an adult
Salt
Butter
Naan method:
1. To a bowl add the flour, yeast, salt & sugar then mix.
2. Add a teaspoon of oil, 2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt and the tempered water.
3. Mix with a butter knife until you can’t then begin to kneed by hand - when it gets sticky add flour bit by bit. Knead until it forms a nice dough that doesn’t stick to your hands this should take 4-8mins of kneading.
4. Rest for 20-60mins.
5. Make the garlic butter just before you cook the first naan - combine in a small bowl and microwave for 30-60 seconds.
6. Onto a floured surface roll out your naan thin like I did and cook in a pan on a medium-high heat, flipping it to your liking and then serve on a plate. Brush with garlic butter and cover with a tea towel while you make the rest.
Enjoy but only sometimes! ?

The Charrnock Woman is the fourth stage in CAN WA's Gnarojin Creek revitalisation program. This project celebrates a significant Noongar site along the banks of the creek.
The program aims to identify and showcase important Noongar cultural links to the creek running through Narrogin.
In 2012 the story of the Charrnock Woman was brought to life by local primary and high school students in Narrogin, who worked with digital artist Steven Aiton to create a unique sand animation of this traditional story written by Bibbullmun artist Toogarr Morrison.
In November 2013, the Narrogin community, along with mosaic artist Danka Sholtz von Lorenz and local Noongar artist Ross Storey, designed and created mosaics depicting the story. These were placed on current rock formations at the site, created as part of the Gnarojin Park Nyoongah Revival project years before.
A QR code placed at the site, when scanned, takes viewers to this animation via a smart phone or tablet.
On behalf of CAN WA we extend a heartfelt thanks to all those who enthusiastically participated in this project.

Junba is storytelling through traditional song and dance. In this video we ask children from Mowanjum Community what they love about Junba and why they think it is important.
In 2015 the Indigenous Hip Hop Project crew visited Derby to make a hip hop video. Mowanjum Community filmed their segment of the video out bush a the local wetlands, lots of people turned up and we had a great evening dancing and filming as the sun set over the Derby marshland. This video is a special edit the IHHP put together to thank Mowanjum Community for their support.
The evening was organised by Mowanjum Aboriginal Art and Culture Centre.
The Mowanjum Aboriginal Art and Cultural Centre is a creative hub for the Worrorra, Ngarinyin and Wunumbal tribes, who make up the Mowanjum community outside Derby, Western Australia.
These three language groups are united by their belief in the Wandjina as a sacred spiritual force and the creators of the land. They are the custodians of Wandjina law and iconography.
The centre hosts exhibitions, workshops and community projects, as well as the annual Mowanjum Festival, one of Australia's longest running indigenous cultural festivals.

The Nyewente Basketball Club is a successful community initiative of the Trucking yards Town Camp just outside Alice Springs. In August 2016, Charity Bounce visited the Nywente Community delivering an Eat Strong, Play Strong program with celebrity Chef Sean Connolly and NBL legend Cal Bruton who delivered his Stand Tall basketball clinic. Sean said “I loved interacting with everyone from the community and hearing the personal stories about their culture and the real challenges that exist for the Aboriginal people. I was the one that got inspired".
It is well proven that sport has the ability to positively unite communities towards a positive future through team building, a sense of belonging and encouraging a healthy lifestyle. The Nywenete Basketball Club has been able to transform the community and provides the children and young people with a sense of pride in their community, winning a few championships already since they started.

Established in 2006, Kaiela Arts is an Aboriginal art centre located in Shepparton. We provide an important space for artists and the community to connect with art and culture. Our work drives important outcomes for both our artists and the broader Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal community.
With a rich Indigenous heritage, the Kaiela Dungala (Goulburn Murray) region is home to many talented artists – Kaiela Arts represents more than 80 of those artists and helps to share and support their work. Artists receive training and mentoring at the centre, and the work of many artists has been exhibited around the State, in some cases winning prestigious awards.
We offer an accessible studio and social space for local artists to connect, create and share art. The centre is a welcoming environment for everyone to learn about Aboriginal cultural arts.
We provide training and professional development opportunities for member artists at all levels, including exhibitions and collaborations with artists and non arts organisations outside the gallery.
We are active in promoting the South Eastern Australian Aboriginal linear art styles, which is traditional to the Aboriginal peoples of the Kaiela-Dungala region.
We provide employment and training for Aboriginal people both as staff and artists. There are many opportunities to connect with the wider community through events, exhibitions, projects and workshops.
Our Gallery and shop is a point of sale for the work of our artists, providing them with a channel to market their work, connect with their buyers and earn income. The gallery and shop provides locals and visitors with a place to acquire local Aboriginal art.
We educate the community about Aboriginal art and culture, through our in schools program – Galyan Manu, for students and teachers. We also offer workshops and cultural arts information sessions to the general public.
All artwork is produced locally by members of the Dungala Kaiela Aboriginal community and includes paintings, didgeridoos, woven baskets, woodwork, ceramics, clap sticks, boomerangs, jewellery,carved emu eggs and poker work and well as books, cards and textiles..
Our Vision
Kaiela Arts strives to facilitate opportunities for Aboriginal people in the
Kaiela-Dungala (Goulburn-Murray) Region to connect to culture through the arts; empowering future generations.
Our Mission:
Kaiela Arts enable Aboriginal artists in the Kaiela-Dungala (Goulburn-Murray) Region
To tell their stories through art and build pathways to professional excellence and recognition, connecting with and sharing culture across two worlds and further enabling the physical, spiritual and emotional wellbeing of the whole community.
Part of a series of seven short films incorporating illustration and animation about some of the artists from Ampilatwatja. Developed by Lara Damiani. Produced by Caroline Hunter and Lara Damiani
The Artists of Ampilatwatja community was established in 1999 near Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. The work produced by the artists is recognisably distinct from other Aboriginal artistic communities, due to the application of fine dots and the often bright and child-like figurative depiction of the land.
Most of the artists paint Arreth, which translates to ‘strong bush medicine’, demonstrating a deep connection to country. A veritable source of life, the land has provided and sustained Alyawarr people for generations, as every plant and animal has a vital role to play within the ecological system. The paintings pay homage to the significance and use of traditional bush medicine, allowing an insight into their community. Yet underneath the iridescent surfaces, there is an underlying sense that there is more to these landscapes than meets the eye. In keeping with the religious laws, the artists reveal only a small amount of knowledge to the uninitiated. The esoteric information that is held sacred to these artists and their people is concealed from the public and layered underneath the common visual narrative, masked by the delicate layered dots of the painting. The many levels of interpretation permit artists to present their art to an often culturally untutored public without compromising its religious nature. Artists talk of two broad levels of interpretation, the “inside” stories which are restricted to those of the appropriate ritual standing, and the “outside” stories which are open to all.

ICTV Contributor Profiles Project: Trevor Ishiguchi

This episode stars Trevor Ishiguchi, a long time contributor to ICTV, and collaborator on many ICTV projects. Trevor is from Djarindjin Community, WA, and works as part of the PAKAM team.
This project is proudly supported by the Community Broadcasting Foundation.
Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce our new collaboration with the Barkindji community in Wilcannia, in the heart of Western NSW on the Darling River. This production brought together Elders, community members and young people to create a conversation about country, culture and community.
This project was funded by the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) and NSW Health. Project managed by Wilcannia Aboriginal Lands Council and staff at Wilcannia Central School & NSW Health.
This initiative is part of an ongoing partnership between EPA and DPM to create awareness and conversation around caring for country. The project runs alongside community-focused waste management projects in Original Nations communities all over NSW.
‘Heartbeat' was created in December 2018, the result of a five-day Desert Pea Media storytelling workshop. Co-written by, and starring, an incredibly talented group of young people, community members and local Elders from the local community - with support from the DPM team and Wilcannia High School Staff.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
'Heartbeat' is an anthem for country - from the people of the river, the Barkindji Nation (Baaka means 'river' in Barkindji). This epic, haunting production fuses trap/ hip hop/ synth vibes to communicate a powerful call to action to protect country.
The DPM team feels deeply honored to learn, share, create and build friendships and connection with the Barkindji community in Wilcannia. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved. These are friendships and experiences that are deeply valued and respected.
This project featured the musical direction and production of acclaimed music producer Carlo Santone (Blue King Brown/Nattali Rize). We thank you brother for your artistic vision and awesome work.
Thanks to Project Manager, Jennifer Thwaites from Wilcannia LALC, Julie Ann Edmonds from Wilcannia Secondary School, and Jess Spencer from NSW Health. Also to Tash and Danyelle from the EPA.

This country is strong and will remain strong for us. It is alive in spirit. Country always welcomes us and reminds us that we are family. We have the responsibility to look after our father’s and mother’s country by following the Law. We don’t make the Law; our Law is handed down from generation to generation.
Country is there for us to live on and use and we are there for it. It’s a strong belief that we should hunt and look around country, walk on the same ground and remember it. This country is us … we love this country.
We were born and grew up in this country. We were taught on country and we want to teach our young ones too. When we pass on, our children can hold country strong, like we do now.
This IPA is for us. It gives us a better chance to look after country and people, and pass our connections on. It’s been a long time since we’ve walked the country. This IPA gives us the opportunity to go back, remember, and use it. It also helps our young people become more knowledgeable. We have rangers learning both Yapa and Kardiya ways of managing country. It’s good for our young people to look after country; it’s their country too.

Northern Tanami Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) committee members directed the CLC to re-imagine their IPA Plan of Management, an English-heavy guide book for looking after the IPA. The brief was to create a lush digital resource using spoken Warlpiri that could be accessed both online and offline to mirror the content of the management plan and be navigated through voice commands. The CLC’s hope is that the IPA digital storybooks will help all Warlpiri – from elders to school children – to better understand and support the work to keep country healthy and culture strong. The CLC has made digital storybooks for both the Southern Tanami and the Northern Tanami IPAs. See www.ngurra.org and www.walyalku.org.au
Luckily, the majority of the IPA is free of weeds, especially sandhill and rocky hill country. At water places or access tracks, weeds can come in. Most weeds are found close to Lajamanu and near outstations.
Too many weeds mean that native plants decline. In weed areas, fires can get bigger and hotter and then destroy the fire sensitive native plants.

Nyamal Traditional Owners from Western Australia’s Pilbara region had their native title determination officially recognised at Shaw River on Tuesday about 100km east of Port Hedland.
The Nyamal people have been recognised as the traditional owners of 28,000 square kilometres of land in the Pilbara, from Marble Bar extending north towards Port Hedland.
The first claim for native title was submitted by Nyamal Traditional Owners in 1994 – two years after the ground-breaking Eddie Mabo case was won in the High Court.
Nyamal elder Doris Eaton talked with us and shared her thoughts, emotions and aspirations after the native title win!

When you think about the names of towns and landmarks in the area where you live, how many of them have Aboriginal names? And what do you know about the meaning of those names?
According to author and historian Bruce Pascoe, 60-70% of Australian place names are Aboriginal, and embedded in those names is an intimate knowledge of the land and its history.
Pascoe is a Bunurong, Punniler panner and Yuin man who lives on the southern end of Yuin country, near Mallacoota.
He is one of the people behind ABC’s This Place project, capturing the meaning behind Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander place names around Australia. He talks about the inspiration for the project, the cultural significance of the land he lives on, and the meaning behind the name Mallacoota, and the rich system of rivers where he lives.
In our local language of Kunwinjku, we say "karribolknahnan kunred". It means caring for country.
Looking after our country near Gunbalanya, in Western Arnhem Land, is a big part of our job as rangers.
Here is a little story about some of what we do. In particular, it's about the spot called Red Lily, right on the northwestern edge of the Arnhem Land escarpment. We'll teach you some more Kunwinjku words along the way.
This video was made as part of an ABC Open Top End workshop for the ABC Open project Mother Tongue.

Nhanda is a Midwest language spoken in the region from Geraldton to the Murchison River, yet very few people speak it fluently today.
In an attempt to stimulate and invigorate the sleeping language, a number of resources have been recently produced, in the hope that more people will learn the language for generations to come.
Linguist Rosie Sitorus who works at Irra Wangga Language Centre said: "We've created some posters primarily as a teaching tool for schools and homes, so that kids can look at it every day and they can start to be aware of the words and be proud of them."
The Irra Wangga Language team has been working quite extensively with the Nhanda people, in particular with Nhanda elder Clayton Drage and his daughter Colleen.
"We were never taught the language and I always wanted to speak Nhanda," Colleen Drage said.
"Speaking language should be part of our everyday life. I wish I could sit with someone one day and have a conversation with them in Nhanda language, that would be lovely."
One of the foundations to keep any language alive is storytelling, listening and recording those stories in language. Stories are really important and help to ensure languages like Nhanda are kept up-to-date and easily available for people to learn.
"Everyone who cares about representing the Nhanda language and culture should have these kinds of resources available," Rosie said.
"It's about trying to ensure people are proud of the language and that it's important and worthwhile."

The Tennant Creek Brio are currently exhibiting in Nirin 22nd Biennale of Sydney. Brio is an Italian word meaning courage, or liveliness of style or performance, which describes this collective. Drawing on multiple influences from various traditional and contemporary cultural forms they have created a significant social and cultural voice reflecting the challenges of life in a frontier town, marred by the ongoing impacts of colonization and continual struggle to maintain cultural identity. Some of the collective’s ‘found’ materials – such as disused metal, plan drawings from a nearby abandoned mine site, and disused poker machines – potently feed into the force of this commentary and outsider status.
The collective members are Fabian Brown, Jimmy Frank, Joseph Williams, Rupert Betheras, Marcus Camphoo, Simon Wilson, Lindsay Nelson, Clifford Thompson and Matthew Ladd.
Collective members, Jimmy Frank and Joseph Williams of Nyinkka Nyunyu Art and Culture Centre discuss art, politics and cultural identity.

The second Lajamanu Red Dust Tour promoting healthy communities took place on the 11th, 12th and 13th of June (2012)
Our first day in the community was looking like being a a quite one, with much of the community still away at the Barunga Festival and others out bush.
Whilst Steve and Wayne (music facilitators) spent much of the day arranging a space to record in and repairing community musical equipment, SEDA sports Role Model Rocky and team leader Sue spent some time with some super keen young fellas who relished an impromptu footy clinic organised by Rocky.
Rocky worked with 10 or so primary aged boys who told him they were keen to write a song about Footy.
The day was then spent writing lyrics, producing beats and bass and keyboard samples for the footy song.
We then recorded the vocals and discussed the type of video the boys would like for the song.
Over the next couple of days, in between classes and after school, time was spent filming the video .... with half of the school away on camp, it became a great little task that helped keep the boys focussed!
The track was recorded and mixed by Realtone's Wayne Glenn and Steve Lane and written with the boys from the Lajamanu Community with help from Red Dust Role Models Sue and Rocky.
Enjoy!!!
ps .... make sure you check out the video/songs from the North Tanami Band, also written and recorded during this tour.
Recorded and filmed on Tuesday 7th January as part of the Red Dust Young Men's and Women's Program.
Dennis takes the lead vocals on this self-penned song, sung in local dialect Pintupi-Luritja.

In recent language workshops in Port Augusta and Port Lincoln at the end of May 2016, Barngarla participants realised that there were still several Barngarla Elders alive with a substantial knowledge of language-related songs and music. As a tool for reclaiming the language and for reconnecting with Barngarla knowledge and heritage, community members discussed with the Gunditj/Kurnai musician and linguistics student Corey Theatre the recording, adapting and writing of Barngarla songs.
In 2018, Ku Arts coordinated two carving camps on both Nukunu and Adnyamathanha country. The camps included language workshops supported by the Mobile Language Team, and the study of objects made by direct ancestors of the Adnyamathanha and Nukunu participants in partnership with South Australian Museum.
Through making tools and studying language, Adnyamathanha and Nukunu men were able to deepen their understanding of the way their ancestors made life and interacted with the environment. Through sharing skills and knowledge, the men of the neighbouring language groups have not only produced important artistic works but have deepened friendships that will help to keep Adnyamathanha and Nukunu carving practice strong.
Created over a two week mentoring period in Ceduna South Australia, Yana developed her ideas into conceptual photographic works, spanning three panels for the Arts Ceduna Exhibition 'No Black Seas' held at ACE OPEN.

Travelling through the Australian continent, one is often appalled by the living conditions of the Aborigine people. Having lost touch with their culture and traditions, many of them have become outcasts or alcoholics who aimlessly wander the streets of the Australian cities. From the early 1800s to the late 1960s, Aborigines were gradually deprived of their land by the white man who used it for herding, cropping, and mineral extraction. Forced to leave their homelands, Aborigines were often separated from their children, who were sent to live with white families or to boarding schools, in an attempt to teach them the white man’s values. Today 390,000 Aborigines account for less than 3% of the current Australian population. Learn how they are beginning to find their place in a society which has excluded them for so long. Meet and share the life of Aborigines who through art, dancing, hunting, work, or spirituality, are finding ways to better their future.
Happy Father’s Day to all you fathers, grandfathers, great grandfathers.
Weekend was spent on the boat and in the creek with brothers, uncles, nephew and grandfather.
Young boys cooked up stingray for the oldies.
As Elders pass away, many take with them the language and the precious knowledge of their
country and culture. In 2017 , the Adnymathanha community sought support to recreate a traditional story about their female ancestors and the creation of Adnyamathanha country. In 2019, the resulting work, a collaboration between women and children of the Adnyamathanha community and the Sharing Stories Foundation, was showcased at the DreamBIG Festival at the Art Gallery of South Australia.
The Same Like Yesterday installation tells a story about six senior Adnyamathanha women and
two teenage girls travelling through the Flinders Ranges in the footsteps of Virkuthalypia, the two woman from the Yuramuda (Dreamtime). Senior custodians (to add names) all contributed to the telling and artistic development of the story on Country.
Yvonne Brady, an Adnyamathanha senior custodian said they felt their focus on a women’s
story was important to in the keeping of traditional knowledge. “We wanted to teach girls about some of the women’s stories. There are a lot of stories about our country.”
Background
This project was facilitated by SharingStories Foundation (SSF) as part of their Digital
Storytelling Program. SharingStories works with Indigenous Communities to increase
digital capabilities in ways that enable the maintenance and growth of language stories
and cultural heritage for today and for future generations tomorrow.
Indigenous Outreach Projects were lucky enough to visit the Ngaanyatjarra Lands for Dust Up 2021.
Our IOP Hip Hop Crew travelling from school to school in the communities of Warakurna, Wingellina, Blackstone, Jameson & Warburton delivered dance workshops. The youth and our amazing Artists worked tirelessly to get everyone involved and ready for Dust Up!

Blessed on the land by the elders
Strong spirit strong culture all around us
All three tribes working together
Keeping it real like it’s no big deal
Go to car crossing we love hunting
Feed our family that’s the main thing
Too much drinking too much punching
Makes me sad and got me thinking
This sly grog hurting us kids
Keep it out, think about what you did
Corella calling early in the morning
Laying in your bed don’t be boring
Come to school make my mind grow
Chill with friend go with the flow

No sly grog in our home
Only want peace leave it alone No sly grog and that’s that Kowanyama dat-to-dat

2024 CAFL Senior Men Community Grand Final - Ntaria v Papunya.
Desert Pea Media is proud to present a new collaboration with the Dunghutti Community in Kempsey NSW.
This production was created in November 2022 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process between Desert Pea Media artists, staff at Melville High School, local Dunghutti Elders, community members, cultural leaders and an incredibly talented group of Melville High School Students.
The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people. Focusing on knowledge, education, cultural identity, wellbeing and connection to country.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
The project was funded and co-produced by Melville High School.
The DPM team feel deeply honoured and grateful to learn, share and create with the Kempsey Community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
Special thanks to Andrew Ryder, Uncle Bob Smith and Aunty Jackie Welsh from Melville High School for all of your hard work, trust and support to make this project possible.
Special thanks to all the Dunghutti People, and all of the mob in the region that participated, welcomed us and shared their time, their stories and their country for the creation of this production. We are humbled and grateful for your trust and friendship.

Our rivers (Bita) – Our plains (Warrawa) – From the mountains (Bandungakayi) – To the sea (Mulumangu)
It’s my dreaming (gurrigan) – My people – This country – Is me
Dhitiyn barri Dunghutti (Thungutti)
From the mountain range to the sand
For generations, we built foundations and roamed this land
Ochre on my face, connected to this place since time began
Sugarloaf… down to the sea – my people meet for song and dance
What are we? Too black for yah? Can’t handle a yarn ‘bout massacre.
Thousands of people murdered, my trauma, I’ll give it all back to ya.
They tried to – get rid of us. Unspoken genocide.
They tried to wipe us out but *surprise*, us mob survived
Old Burnt Bridge, let me take ya back – 1863, living in a tin shack
Flour, sugar, tea never gave us jack. But we have a culture and you can’t take that.
Mish man pulling up, 3 cars in black,
running next door so we don’t get snatched.
knock knock knock Shhh it’s the welfare pack –
they take our kids and they don’t come back.
What’s that Mr. Prime minister? Won’t answer the boys from Kinchela.
Uncle told us he asked ya “Why?”. But ya didn’t say nothing, did ya brah?
Let’s talk about Cootamundra. And the girls 16 & under.
Kids taken into slavery, names became a number.
CHORUS:
I have a feeling that
My Dreaming’s coming back
Because my history’s Black
We put Dunghutti on the map
I get a feeling like
My dreaming’s still alive
We still fight, we still grow
We still learning, so we know
there’s still hope
From Southside, Green Hill to Burnt Bridge
Still on the Mission Still on the track
Still got the vision Still got the facts
And ya still can’t handle that
We survived – we still alive
And We still deadly proud and black
We still listening, we still learning
And we still Bringing our culture back
Our knowledge is our power and that power makes them scared
They tried to silence us voice became weapons instead
More black teachers, black leaders, black thinkers, black dreamers, believers (Brrrrt)
Black seekers, fact speakers, and more black cultural keepers

Spear of Destiny' was written, recorded and shot in just four days in Townsville, QLD as part of the Song Nation 2013 storytelling tour of Australia.
Uncle Alfred Smallwood is an Indigenous elder and community leader in Townsville, QLD who is creating real change for young men in his community.
Uncle Alfred's Men's Group is a volunteer service for young men caught up in the justice system, and who are trying to re-engage with community, culture and country and break the cycle of sentencing.
There is a focus on cultural mentoring, on 'reclaiming your spear' and taking responsibility for yourself and your family. This song and music video was created over four days in October 2013, to help spread Uncle Alfred's important message.
We would like to pay our respect to the people of the Bindal & Wulgurukaba, traditional owners of the country upon which this song was made.
Special thanks to Uncle Alfred Smallwood and Aunty Gail Mabo, Jane Westlake, Joel Westlake, Toby Finlayson, and of course all the Warriors from Uncle Alfred's Men's Group.
'For My People' was written, recorded and shot in just four days with young people from Collarenebri, NSW as part of the Song Nation 2013 storytelling tour of Australia.
The Colli Crew are a group of "diminutive, yet razor-sharp rappers" from Collarenebri - a small town in northwest NSW situated on the banks of the Barwon River.
The crew has developed as part of an ongoing Desert Pea Media mentoring program in Collarenebri since 2010, in partnership with Collarenebri Central School. - 'For My People' is the 7th track from The Colli Crew in four years, and the first independent Colli Crew production.
This song was created over four days in August 2013, and features Michael Graham aka MC Boomali (Gamilaraay word for 'strike with power'), who has been a standout participant in Colli Crew projects throughout most of his teenage years.
Over the years, MC Boomali has developed from a participant to an artist in his own right - something we are all very proud of. Having just turned 18 - this young man knows about hardship and struggle, yet continues to make good life choices and be a strong role model for his community.
MC Boomali says "It's about standing strong and not giving up - representing who you are and where you're from - believing in yourself and knowing yourself. Respect my old people till my last breath. WORD!"
'For My People' is an affirmation of the power of self-expression. A story about a young man who has found a voice in music, has found pride and strength in his cultural identity, and uses that power to educate, empower and inspire his people. We'll be seeing a lot more of this young Gamilaraay warrior in the future. Believe that.
Special thanks to John McGregor, Roslyn McGregor, Adrian King, Peter Baum, Janet Mason and all of the Collarenebri elders that have supported the programs from the beginning.
We pay our respects to the Gamilaraay people - traditional owners of the country upon which this story was told.

This is a health warning.
Right now, many of our children and young people in our community are getting rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease.
This sickness is serious. This sickness can damage our heart.
Watch out for:
1. Painful joints (like ankle, knees, hip or elbow, wrist, shoulder) and
2. Fever (feeling cold and shivering but when you feel their forehead they feel very hot to touch).
Bring these children and young people to the clinic so we can give them medicine to stop this sickness and to prevent heart damage.
What causes rheumatic fever?
Rheumatic fever starts with a sore throat and sometimes with sores on our skin.
A germ called “strep” lives in the throat and on skin sores.
When you see pus in skin sores, it means that strep germs are camping there. They have found a good camping place to grow and multiply.
Or, if we have a sore throat, the same germ can live there.
These “strep” germs get inside our children’s body and damage their heart.
Medicine kill these strep germs and prevent heart damage.
For people who already have rheumatic fever, they need Penicillin needle every 3 or 4 weeks.
This medicine will stop them getting rheumatic fever again and prevents heart damage.
The medicine only stays in our body for 3 weeks.
It goes all around our body and protects us from the ‘strep’ germ.
After 3 weeks, the medicine is used up/finished.
Then we need to give another injection.
People with rheumatic fever need Penicillin in their body all the time to kill any strep germs and prevent heart damage.
We have so many good stories to share online

Thirty Years Too Long deals with the death of John Pat, a 16 year old Aboriginal boy who died at the hands of police in Roebourne, Western Australia, in 1983. The State Government finally apologised to John Pat's family on the 30th anniversary of his death. John Pat's death helped spark the long-running Royal Commission into Aboriginal deaths in Custody.
In 2009 QGC bulldozed part of an ancient cultural heritage site to put in a coal seam gas well.
The site was well documented and had been described by Archeologists as being thousands of years old. It was an unusual and well preserved Bora Ring that was highly regarded by members of the Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal communities. The landholder had fenced the site off to stop cattle from trampling the unique stone arrangements. Traditional custodian Neil Stanley was a regular visitor to the site and looked after the special place. But QGC moved in on the site, cleared a swathe of land and drilled a gas well in the middle of the culturally significant Bora Ring. Neil Stanley describes the destruction as being like drilling a gas well in the centre of the Vatican. The destruction illustrates how not even a well documented culturally significant site is off limits to the gas companies in their quest to extract every whiff of coal seam gas from Queensland.

In a remote part of Western Australia lives an endangered species of rock wallaby.

This documentary shows rangers at work establishing a new colony of rock wallabies to help secure their survival for the future.

In the desert, water is mostly found below ground. Any surface water quickly dries up in the heat, but underground water remains available in waterholes and rockholes. Aboriginal people of the inland differentiate between permanent water, called living water, and seasonal water that dries up during parts of the year. For the Walmajarri people of the Fitzroy Valley the word for permanent water is Jila. In this film we accompany artist and elder Amy Nugget as she takes her daughter and granddaughter on a journey to visit her ancestral Jila, Purluwala, a sacred site her and her family once lived at.

Yirara College TV: Term 1, Episode 8
2017
Since 2010, Yirrganydji Traditional owners became increasingly concerned about the issues affecting their traditional sea country from Cairns to Port Douglas, North Queensland. So various Yirrganydji families and people initiated the development of a TUMRA with the assistance of the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority over the following years.
Through the TUMRA program, we aim to foster sustainability and protection of the Great Barrier Reef, continue our culture and be engaged in the management of our sea country. We, as the Yirrganydji traditional owners of the Cairns to Port Douglas coastline, believe it’s a shared responsibility on looking after country. So we wish to work in partnership with others on preserving the outstanding values of the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area for the future.

With a rich Indigenous heritage, the Kaiela Dungala (Goulburn Murray) region is home to many talented artists – Kaiela Arts represents more than 80 of those artists and helps to share and support their work. Artists receive training and mentoring at the centre, and the work of many artists has been exhibited around the State, in some cases winning prestigious awards.
We offer an accessible studio and social space for local artists to connect, create and share art. The centre is a welcoming environment for everyone to learn about Aboriginal cultural arts.
We provide training and professional development opportunities for member artists at all levels, including exhibitions and collaborations with artists and non arts organisations outside the gallery.
We are active in promoting the South Eastern Australian Aboriginal linear art styles, which is traditional to the Aboriginal peoples of the Kaiela-Dungala region.
We provide employment and training for Aboriginal people both as staff and artists. There are many opportunities to connect with the wider community through events, exhibitions, projects and workshops.
Our Gallery and shop is a point of sale for the work of our artists, providing them with a channel to market their work, connect with their buyers and earn income. The gallery and shop provides locals and visitors with a place to acquire local Aboriginal art.
We educate the community about Aboriginal art and culture, through our in schools program – Galyan Manu, for students and teachers. We also offer workshops and cultural arts information sessions to the general public.
All artwork is produced locally by members of the Dungala Kaiela Aboriginal community and includes paintings, didgeridoos, woven baskets, woodwork, ceramics, clap sticks, boomerangs, jewellery,carved emu eggs and poker work and well as books, cards and textiles..
Our Vision
Kaiela Arts strives to facilitate opportunities for Aboriginal people in the
Kaiela-Dungala (Goulburn-Murray) Region to connect to culture through the arts; empowering future generations.
Our Mission:
Kaiela Arts enable Aboriginal artists in the Kaiela-Dungala (Goulburn-Murray) Region
To tell their stories through art and build pathways to professional excellence and recognition, connecting with and sharing culture across two worlds and further enabling the physical, spiritual and emotional wellbeing of the whole community.
Part of a series of seven short films incorporating illustration and animation about some of the artists from Ampilatwatja. Developed by Lara Damiani. Produced by Caroline Hunter and Lara Damiani
The Artists of Ampilatwatja community was established in 1999 near Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. The work produced by the artists is recognisably distinct from other Aboriginal artistic communities, due to the application of fine dots and the often bright and child-like figurative depiction of the land.
Most of the artists paint Arreth, which translates to ‘strong bush medicine’, demonstrating a deep connection to country. A veritable source of life, the land has provided and sustained Alyawarr people for generations, as every plant and animal has a vital role to play within the ecological system. The paintings pay homage to the significance and use of traditional bush medicine, allowing an insight into their community. Yet underneath the iridescent surfaces, there is an underlying sense that there is more to these landscapes than meets the eye. In keeping with the religious laws, the artists reveal only a small amount of knowledge to the uninitiated. The esoteric information that is held sacred to these artists and their people is concealed from the public and layered underneath the common visual narrative, masked by the delicate layered dots of the painting. The many levels of interpretation permit artists to present their art to an often culturally untutored public without compromising its religious nature. Artists talk of two broad levels of interpretation, the “inside” stories which are restricted to those of the appropriate ritual standing, and the “outside” stories which are open to all.

Yurntumu-wardingki juju-ngaliya-kurlangu yawulyu: Warlpiri women's songs from Yuendumu.
This series consists of four short films in which Warlpiri women sing, dance and tell the stories of different ancestral beings who travel across Warlpiri country. Each part contains footage of these women singing, painting their bodies with red and white ochre and performing the accompanying dances. The first part presents the Minamina yawulyu and tells of group of ancestral women as they emerge from Minamina, in the far west of Warlpiri country and begin their journey eastwards. Part 2 presents the songs and stories of the Watiyawarnu ancestors from Ngurlulirri-nyinanya, to the north-west of Yuendumu, telling of their travels as they search for varieties of acacia seed, grinding them and making seed cakes along the way. Part 3 presents the famous songs and story of the two Jangalas from Warlukurlangu whose evil blue-tongue lizard father lights a raging bush fire, forcing them to run away southwards out of their country before they return home, weak and exhausted. And finally, part 4 presents the songs and stories of the Ngapa ‘Rain’ Dreaming that travels westwards across the country to the north of Yuendumu. Warlpiri women from Yuendumu have presented these yawulyu so that the songs and their associated knowledge can be remembered and performed by future generations of Warlpiri women. These films appear on a DVD which comes as an accompanying insert in the book ‘Yurntumu-wardingki juju-ngaliya-kurlangu yawulyu: Warlpiri women’s songs from Yuendumu’ (Batchelor Institute Press, 2017).

Lyric Video for Track 5 of UPK#6.
Jason Cullinan, writer/singer from Indulkana Community
Kungka. Beautiful woman. You’re mine.
Nyuntu Ngayuku.
Jason Cullinan comes from Indulkana. He is a songwriter and multi instrumentalist.
UPK stands for Uwankara Palyanku Kanyintjaku; a Pitjantjatjara expression meaning ‘everybody building and caring for the future’.
Using music is an agent of change, the songwriters involved take aim the root causes of hurt they see around them, like petrol sniffing, alcohol and drug addiction, waste management, care-for-country, hunting, and homesickness.
The content of UPK songs is not about blame or victimhood but a musical effort to address the factors that contribute to, or impact on, good living.
Creating awareness is the intention of UPK music because it is the key precedent to positive action.
UPK6 was recorded at West Bore in the APY Lands using an open-air studio with a hessian fence for wind-break, used carpet to keep the dirt down, and digital recording gear housed in the front room of an old outstation home.
The resulting album was released on the APY Lands in the form of a USB slap band containing the whole album, plus a karaoke version complete with scrolling Pitjantjatjara lyrics.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce our new collaboration with the Barapa Barapa and Wemba Wemba communities of Deniliquin in Western NSW. This production brought together Elders, community members and young people to create a conversation about culture, country and sustainability.
This project was funded by the Environmental Protection Authority, part of an ongoing partnership with DPM to create awareness and conversation around caring for country, and runs alongside community-focused waste management projects in Original Nations communities all over NSW.
‘State of the Heart' was created in July 2018, the result of a five-day Desert Pea Media storytelling workshop. Co-written by, and starring, an incredibly talented group of Indigenous young people enrolled at Deniliquin High School, community members and local Elders - with support from DPM staff and local services.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
We are really proud of the young people involved in this production. The complex issues raised in this song around race and cultural identity are complex and often difficult to talk about. The co-writers and performers showed great bravery and intelligence, and it was a very special thing to be a part of.
This project featured the musical direction and production of DPM producer Josh Nicholas (aka Hazy). We thank you brother for you artistic vision and hard work.
Special thanks to Project Manager, Jessie Peuker from the Deniliquin Local Aboriginal Lands Council, and the staff at Deniliquin High School. A huge thanks to Uncle Freddie Egan for making us feel welcome and teaching us about country and community. Thanks once again to Tash and Danyelle from the EPA and the good people at RAMROCK Murray.
LYRICS
Our story is that thing that lotta my people forgot
Now it’s all grog & drugs & cops & my mob movin’ around a lot
Where that respect gone? I’m black but I look white
Where that respect gone? Connecting with that fire that burns inside
Now it’s all – Iphone on the wifi, wanna connect but it’s on the screen
Not with your mob, never on country, but it’s on the couch glued to the TVStep back and – we’re from where the red gum grow
Swamps and creeks where the Edward flow
We run these streets we search for freedom under big skies where the red sun glow.
Forbidden from speaking our unwritten language
Shifted into tin huts and given mission blankets
Some made a living shearing but the town doors were closed
White flour, sugar, tea is not what we chose
I know when I’m wanted and I know when I’m not
This sadness got me feeling like someone this country forgot
But when I’m noticed and acknowledged by my mob
That’s when – I know who I am. I know I belong.
My mind frame changes when I’m playing my part
It’s not the shade of my skin it’s the state of my heart
I can’t change who I am, this is all that I got
This is my mob, land and culture and I’m keeping the lot
My mob is getting stronger, showing that you one of us
No more hiding – round the campfire in the smoke and the dust
Better trust – we your mob, this your country, this your song
This your story, this your river, this my mission, we belong
Hey Kooka – tell me some stories all ‘bout what we used to do
Hey Nyanka –tell us our history, sing us songs about the truth
Kwe – it’s me, it’s you, you’re a part of this too.
Gotta take the – ancestor’s wisdom and we’ll make it brand new.
Never waste your time, never waste your mind, never waste your what? Potential.
Keeping things moving in a cycle’s fundamental, it’s essential
Keep your mental strong, keep the waste where it belongs
Not on sacred country, move it along or use it later on.
Who’s the most dangerous black fe-lla under the sun
Well the most dangerous black fella’s an educated one.

This video, produced by Danila Dila with Verb Studios, looks at issues of sexual health and teen pregnancy in a compelling personal drama.
Part of the 'Break It Down: Community Conversations Around Mental Health' project 2017/2018. (DPM/PHN WNSW)
Chasing the western ideal can turn out to be hollow, and lead to depression, if your spiritual self is not in the right place. For George Coe, that journey brought him back to his roots, by the river where he grew up. On country, George reconnected with the ancient ways that make him who he is today. Now his goal is to provide the kids of his community with direction, while placing the necessary emphasis on cultural wisdom, to ensure they don’t have to go down the tough path that he has walked before. George has big hopes for his community, and his people, and knows that respecting the land is the only way to get there.
ICTV is proud to announce a special week of programming - in support of National Mental Health Week 2018 - from the 8th to the 14th of October.

Three Sisters, Women of High Degree, is the result of 7 years of collaboration and filmed conversations between three Yimardoowarra Marninil, Nyikina women from the Fitzroy River, Lucy Marshall, Jeannie Wabi, and Anne Poelina, and French-Australian filmmaker Magali McDuffie.
For over 30 years, Lucy, Wabi and Anne have been implementing cultural actions to create sustainable economies in their communities for future generations, and to protect their kandri, language and culture.
Inscribing the women within their cultural landscape through their river stories, and spanning over 80 years and three generations, this film also retraces the recent history of the Kimberley through the sisters’ lived experiences of slavery on pastoral stations, and reveals the women’s agency in response to various government policies. Highlighting the use of film as a tool of empowerment, Three Sisters looks at the contemporary engagement of the women politically, at a local, national, and international level, in an increasingly neo-liberal context, with, in the background, the ever-increasing threat of massive industrialisation of the Kimberley region by multi-national mining corporations – the new colonisers.
A film by Pin Rada and Alison Hunt, co-produced by The Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet and Pitjantjatjatjara Yankunytjatjara Media which documents the activities of a camp run by senior Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara elders from Amata Community in the APY Lands who are trying to pass on their traditional culture to the children of their community.
‘Alpiri’ is a form of motivational or instructional speech traditionally used in the early morning in Anangu camps. Usually an elder would get up early to broadcast a message to people waking in the camp. In the alpiri video series, we have produced short videos in which senior Anangu leaders send messages out to viewers.

After 70 years, our special place Kurlpurlunu has been found again by Yapa. PAW Productions filmed this exciting discovery.
Previous attempts to find the Tanami Desert site, known as Kurlpurlunu, had proved fruitless until Warlpiri elders, George Jungarrayi Ryder and Molly Nappururla Tasman flew over the area in a helicopter in 2015.
The elderly pair had visited the site as children and recognised some of the features, including a distinctive tree and a rock.
The site's identity was confirmed by 82-year-old Jerry Jangala, who also travelled to the spot by helicopter.
"He said, that is the rock I was sitting down on when I was a little one," said Central Land Council chairman Francis Kelly who was also on the trip.
When he was brought to the site, marked by two distinct sand hills and a bubbling waterhole, he was reportedly overcome with happiness.
"He was singing a song representing that place," Mr Kelly told 783 ABC Alice Springs.
"He started crying then."
The site, about 500kms north-west of Alice Springs, is important to the Warlpiri people because it was used for all the ceremonies for that area, including songs and rain dancing.
"It is a rain-making dreaming that Kurlpurlunu," Mr Kelly said.
Mr Jangala said being at the site was "amazing" and the area was significant to his people.
"We would like to go there. Everybody would really like that too," he said.
While at Kurlpurlunu, Warlpiri rangers undertook a prescribed burn of the area.
There are also plans to protect the area from feral camels.
When news was posted on the Central Land Council's Facebook page people posted comments in praise of the discovery.
"I know so many people who dreamed of this for years!" one post said.
"My heart fills with happiness!" said another.

How to make bush medicine
Northern Tanami Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) committee members directed the CLC to re-imagine their IPA Plan of Management, an English-heavy guide book for looking after the IPA. The brief was to create a lush digital resource using spoken Warlpiri that could be accessed both online and offline to mirror the content of the management plan and be navigated through voice commands. The CLC’s hope is that the IPA digital storybooks will help all Warlpiri – from elders to school children – to better understand and support the work to keep country healthy and culture strong. The CLC has made digital storybooks for both the Southern Tanami and the Northern Tanami IPAs. See www.ngurra.org and www.walyalku.org.au
Since Yapa stopped walking their country, many changes have occurred. These changes include the introduction and proliferation of feral animals and weeds species, altered fire regimes and changes in water quality at important wetlands due to feral animal impacts.
Cats and foxes have done most damage to extinction of many medium-sized mammals and threaten mammals, reptiles and ground-nesting bids. Cats live all across the NTIPA.
Cattle and horses cause most damage at wetland areas because of their browsing, trampling, overgrazing, spread of weeds, competing for food like grasses, defecating and water use. They damage the wetland area and this impacts on native animal communities that rely on these water places.

This project is primarily focusing on the E strategies within the WHO SAFE trachoma strategy, but will also address the F. E represents environmental change and F symbolises facial cleanliness. The project will work the regional Public Health Units and our Aboriginal Environmental Health workforce, who are located within Aboriginal communities, to develop a Community Environmental Health Action Plan (CEHAP) which will identify and plan for sustainable and realistic trachoma prevention strategies (within a broader environmental health context). Key strategies within the project include working with local Aboriginal communities to identify what they think could be done within their communities to reduce trachoma and other hygiene related illnesses and include these as an integral component within the CEHAP. The #endingtrachoma project has also developed two trachoma advertisements which have been designed to run before and after the community movie night, just as a reminder about what we are trying to achieve in communities. The project will provide funds for community led demonstration projects each year. These projects will have an environment health focus that aims to reduce trachoma. Potential projects could include in-home bathroom assessments and minor maintenance, a community laundry service. The list is endless and up to the community!

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce a new collaboration with the Githabul community in Muli Muli & Woodenbong, in the Upper Clarence Valley on the North Coast of NSW.
This production, along with a short film were created over 14 days in August 2019 - an outcome of of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local Original Nations young people, community members, Elders, High School staff and local services.
The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people in 8 communities around the North Coast. The project is called 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Well-being' - funded by North Coast Primary Health Network.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities :)
The connections created during this project with the community and local young people are friendships that the DPM team highly value and respect. We as a team feel deeply honored to learn, share and create with the Woodenbong/Muli Muli community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
'Home' was produced by DPM's in-house Music Producer Josh Nicholas aka 'Hazy'. We thank you brother for your artistic vision and awesome work.
Special thanks to Salome Green, Jennifer Williams, Tornelle Boney, Susan Boney and staff at Woodenbong School for all of your incredible support, and the Elders and community from Muli Muli for having us on country.

Since the beginning of 2017, Aboriginal students at Eden Public School, on the far south coast of New South Wales, have been learning the language of their elders.
It is the culmination of a painstaking language revitalisation project that began more than 10 years ago.
In 2006, Ossie and Beryl Cruse, Shirley Aldridge and Liddy Stewart, together with project coordinator Sue Norman, began meeting with elders along the south coast to record interviews and find out how much language was still spoken.
For the next four years, they travelled the coast from Bomaderry to Eden, interviewing 37 elders and capturing over 1,000 words, supplemented by recordings made with various elders in the 1960s.
They built a database of words using the Miromaa database, developed in Australia for communities working to revitalise their traditional languages.
Another two years were spent building an audio dictionary, selecting words and verifying their pronunciation and spelling in consultation with the community in Eden.
Flash cards, games, songs help teach language
The group then developed resources to teach the language – from flash cards and games, to a workbook and a song.
They have been teaching students at Eden Public School since the beginning of this year. One of the first class exercises was for students and teachers to give themselves a name in language.
The traditional languages of the far south coast are Dhurga from Wandandean to Wallaga Lake, Djiringanj from Wallaga Lake to Merimbula, and Thawa southwards from Merimbula.
Uncle Ossie Cruse said the group wanted to revitalise a common language that was used from Eden to La Perouse.
The Eden Aboriginal community is a resettlement community – south coast tribes were heavily impacted by colonisation, and people travelled up and down the coast for agricultural work, so for many speakers, the traditional languages have become mixed.
But even before colonisation, a trade language would have been shared by the different tribes of the south coast, and this is what the language group has tried to capture.
Emotional experience for elders involved
In May 2017, elders from the language group visited the original interviewees and their families in Cobargo, Wallaga Lake, Ulladulla, Nowra, Bomaderry, Sanctuary Point, and Wreck Bay to give them a copy of their recordings, and the audio dictionary and workbook they contributed to.
Uncle Ossie Cruse said it was an emotional experience, especially as some of the elders who shared their knowledge had now passed away.
This story was filmed over 12 months at the Monaroo-Bobberer-Gudu Keeping Place at Jigamy, Eden High School and Eden Public School. The project was made possible by the Our Languages Our Way program of NSW Aboriginal Affairs. Many thanks to the community for allowing this project to be captured by the ABC.

The Walkandi-Woni Art Group from the Riverland of South Australia is celebrating their Indigenous heritage and at the same time continuing a long tradition of oral storytelling.
It's sad to say that colonisation has resulted in the loss of hundreds of Indigenous languages in Australia, with the the Murray River Tongue being one of those.
Some River Tongue words are still spoken today but in mélange of different languages from surrounding areas.
Luckily in 1816 the South Australian Protector of Aborigines, a pastoralist by the name of Matthew Moorhouse, recorded a wide range of words and phrases, along with their phonetic pronunciations. So now we are seeing a sleeping language being given a new lease on life, and a new generation of speakers.
Walkandi-Woni is leading this charge to put the language back into the community from where it came. The dreaming story of the Moolyawongk, or bunyip, is a great starting point to put some of the tribal language into a form where it is accessible for all.
This version of the Moolyawongk story was recorded in 1964 and has been transformed into a picture book by the art group, using linocut printing. ABC Open's involvement has meant that the story has transformed again into a digital form that can be shared across the world.
All eleven pages of the full Moolyawongk story can be found here in this video.

Sue Hanson is a linguist, and for the last four years she's been working with a small group of women from Leonora, two hours drive north of Kalgoorlie in the West Australian Goldfields. They are some of the last remaining speakers of Kuwarra, the language of the people from around the Lake Darlot region, north east of Leonora.
The ladies love nothing more than getting the family together and heading out into the bush.
"If we got no money or it's really raining - but if we have a chance of having money for the fuel, then we go hunting - that's the only two things that will stop us," says Geraldine.
It's in this bush setting that a lot of the language and stories can naturally emerge.
Preserving a language takes years of commitment and work, and Sue has been empowering the Kuwarra ladies with the skills and confidence to operate as bicultural people in the changed social landscape of modern Australia.
Mother and daughter, Luxie and Geraldine Hogarth say that maintaining their language is important because it's central to who they are as human beings.

Wadawurrung country stretches from the mountains to the sea. It includes hills, rivers and grassy plains, creeks and coasts and includes modern towns such as Werribee, Geelong and Ballarat in Victoria.
Since colonisation, white fellas have tried to write down our Wadawurrung language, even though there are no equivalent sounds in English.
We had no written language so early settlers wrote down what they heard using their own language trying to reproduce the sounds.
In this series of short films we correct some of the language spelling of the places we all know and explain the meaning behind our stories.
Language needs a place to live, and this is a chance for us to tell our stories and our language.
Our language is sleeping, but will soon reawaken.
This story is about Borombeet, now known as Lake Burrumbeet, just out of Ballaarat. Now it is a large recreational area for boating, fishing and camping but in our old people’s time it was a place of significance for us because it was a constant source of water, rich in resources such as food and medicine.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to share a creative collaboration with the community of Thursday Island, in the Torres Straits Island group in Northern 'Queensland'.
'The Surface' was created as part of a larger multi-arts project spanning 14 days on Thursday Island in September 2019. An outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local young people, community members, Elders, and local services. This was made possible by an innovative and groundbreaking partnership with FNQ Primary Health Network.
The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Indigenous young people in 5 communities around FNQ (Kuranda, Bowen, Palm Island, Thursday Island & Lockhart River).
This is the story of Rucia Elu - a young father reflecting on his battle with mental health.
A unique and overlooked perspective on the pressures of young fatherhood - challenging his
own experiences and sharing his journey with the world. This is a
brave and generous yarn, focusing on gratitude and presence and
sharing big experiences for the purpose of supporting others.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
These inter-generational conversations around wellbeing, grief, trauma and hopefulness/aspiration are critical to healthy communities, and sadly uncommon.
These projects not only uplift and inspire participants and community members, but are profoundly impactful experiences for our Creative Team, our core family and audiences all over the world. It is a deep honour for us to learn, share and create with all of you amazing mob around this beautiful country.
'The Surface' was Co-Directed, Shot and Edited by Mitch O'Hearn, as part of an intensive co-writing process with Rucia Elu and DPM Creative Team. We thank you for your artistic integrity, commitment and passionate work with our DPM family over the past few years.
Special thanks to Aunty Ellen Ronson, Jodi and the team from My Pathways, Diat Alferink from TSIMA, Lisa Lui and the Meriam Dance Group and Paula Arnol, Alex Blanco and staff from Torres Health.

A black-and-white clip shows the dramatisation of a story told by the old people in Central Australia. Children are playing games – clapping, drawing in the dirt. A woman announces that some children are going to go with her to get some food. Other children are left behind with the older women, who fall asleep. We see the ominous arrival of a four-wheel drive truck.
ICTV Community News Update (English)
Nexus Arts will work with the Barngarla community (SA), Gunditj/Kurnai musician and student of linguistics Corey Theatre (SA), Ngaanyatjarra musician and choir leader Vonda Last (SA), Barngarla leader and linguistics student Stephen Atkinson (SA), and video and sound artist Dave Laslett (SA) to record traditional Barngarla songs and stories from Elders, and adapt and compose new songs in Barngarla through intergenerational music workshops for recording and public performance.
BACKGROUND
In recent language workshops in Port Augusta and Port Lincoln at the end of May 2016, Barngarla participants realised that there were still several Barngarla Elders alive with a substantial knowledge of language-related songs and music. As a tool for reclaiming the language and for reconnecting with Barngarla knowledge and heritage, community members discussed with the Gunditj/Kurnai musician and linguistics student Corey Theatre the recording, adapting and writing of Barngarla songs.

In 2018, Ku Arts coordinated two carving camps on both Nukunu and Adnyamathanha country. The camps included language workshops supported by the Mobile Language Team, and the study of objects made by direct ancestors of the Adnyamathanha and Nukunu participants in partnership with South Australian Museum.
Through making tools and studying language, Adnyamathanha and Nukunu men were able to deepen their understanding of the way their ancestors made life and interacted with the environment. Through sharing skills and knowledge, the men of the neighbouring language groups have not only produced important artistic works but have deepened friendships that will help to keep Adnyamathanha and Nukunu carving practice strong.

This animation, “Tick Sickness” was developed to raise knowledge and awareness of diseases transmitted by ticks, including Ehrlichiosis, a new tick-Borne disease which was first detected in Australia in May 2020.
Ehrlichiosis, which is caused by the bacteria Ehrlichia canis carried by Brown Dog Ticks, can have significant impacts on the health of dogs. While international case reports are rare, there is a possibility that this disease can also impact on human health.

Sunday Celebration
Randall met Jesus at age 15. “There was an old man next door. He told me, ‘someone loves you. He lives above you, watching you, day and night.’ The old man was like an angel, encouraging me, telling me about Jesus,” said Randall.
“I decided to go and get baptised, and then He gave me a gift of playing music and writing songs. I didn’t know how to write songs. I never went to school. Jesus gave me an understanding about writing songs and playing music. I just kept doing it.
“The songs don’t come from me, they come from the Lord. The songs are about how great He is, how loving He is…that’s how He uses me to tell people out there about Him.”
Sandra Wangarr shares her moving story of growing up living off the land on Elcho Island, Arnhem Land, Australia. Life has not been without difficulty. Through her faith in Jesus, she found God to be the help she needed, and in time, she became that help to others, expressed in some amazing ways. A story of God's help and faithfulness.
Beautifully cinematic, Wangarr’s story was filmed on location in the remote top end of Australia. Her story reminds us of the ways that God works all things for his good purposes in and through our lives (Romans 8:28)

This short animation was co-developed by Animal Management in Rural and Remote Indigenous Communities (AMRRIC) and the Threatened Species Recovery Hub (ended Dec 2021). The animation is focused on cats on country, highlighting the high reproductive capacity of cats, and the potential impacts of cat overpopulation for human health and native wildlife. It also promotes the desexing of cats as an important component of responsible ownership of cats in remote communities, many of which are in areas of high conservation significance. It is narrated by Anton Rami (Meigim Kriol Strongbala).

Men from Barunga (formerly known as Bamyili) in the Katherine region of the Northern Territory enter Lajamanu on the occasion of the Northern Territory achieving self-government on 1 July 1978; they go through the new police station and perform a dance, typical of southern Arnhem Land, accompanied by didjeridu, clapsticks and singing. This was recorded in Lajamanu with an old 8 mm film camera, so the technical quality is poor.
Torres Strait islander boys, students from Djarragun College, march onto the stage during the Townsville Cultural Fest. They perform the “Paddle Dance” from Boigu Island (just south of Papua New Guinea), in the far north of the Torres Strait; the song, “Kutau Gutha Thia”, is about a canoe, that drifted away and was later found. The boys depict paddling a canoe and dealing with the currents.
The White Cockatoo dance group from Barunga and Beswick (Wugularr) in the Northern Territory perform, at the Barunga Festival of 2018 to the song “Mimi - Wajbagada”, a song about the mythical Mimi spirit, accompanied by the didgeridoo (yidaki).

ICTV Community News - Wrapping up the ICTV film festival (Warlpiri)
The Pirltawardli crew present a different twelve days of Christmas in Kaurna Language.
Seatbelt Tjura is a Anangu stop motion film spoken in Pitjantjatjara, an Indigenous Dialect. Milpa Project under the guidance of the Spinifex Arts Project. The Milpa Project is located in Tjuntjuntjara community, one of Australia’s most remote Indigenous communities, 650kms east of Kalgoorlie in the Great Victoria Desert. The Milpa Project’s core group of Anangu* artists include Timo Hogan, Kumanara Stevens and Sophia Brown.
Pitjantjatjara is a dialect of the Western Desert language, spoken by over approximately 3000 people across Western Australia, South Australia and the Northern Territory.
The artists started working together in May 2018 a community driven, artistic response to a very serious issue affecting many Indigenous communities across Australia. Multiple driving offences such as not wearing a seatbelt, driving without a license or driving an unroadworthy vehicle are resulting in large fines (and in some cases incarceration) for a significant number of Indigenous Australians. In the Great Victoria Desert communities, where English is often a second or third language, this can be partly attributed to the limited Pitjantjatjara language educational driver resources available. The Milpa Project has enabled the artists to respond to, and address this serious issue through education via their artwork. By creating puppetry, multimedia and storytelling in Pitjantjatjara language the artists along with multimedia artist Ange Leech have produced short animations and artworks enabling each artist to share their ideas and stories with community.
* Anangu ‘local community members’ Pitjantjatjara
The Milpa project would like thank all those involved with the development of the project.
Milpa is funded by the Spinifex Arts Project, Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body and AngloGold Ashanti Australia Ltd. The Spinifex Arts Project is supported by the Australian Government Indigenous Visual Arts Industry Support (IVAIS).
Milpa thanks the on-ground sponsorship support from the local Tjuntjuntjara community and organisations including Paupiyala Tjarutja Aboriginal Corporation and Tjuntjuntjara Remote Community School.

The City of Port Phillip engaged Indigenous Outreach Projects, IOP, to work with local youth from the St Kilda PCYC to develop a song and music video clip for the 2021 Yaluk-ut Weelam Ngargee Festival.
Local Indigenous Artist John Wayne Parsons (Yuggerabul & Meriam Le) performed the intro in language from the Boonwurrung Welcome Song while playing the boomerangs. He also sang the same lyrics to the beat and melody created together with IOP. The IOP crew facilitated song writing workshops to create the verses and pre choruses that they recorded to create this final collaboration.
We want to congratulate everyone on their great efforts especially the Youth, our future leaders, as this music video wouldn't have been possible without them. It was inspirational to see the impact this project has had on our local youth, educating them about their local language and culture while giving them a platform to share their stories and have a voice.

A song recorded by Craig Robertson about the ANZAC spirit and what it represents in todays world.
Climate change is here and it is having serious impacts on desert communities in Australia. The increased temperatures are making life harder, buffel grass is pushing out the bush tucker plants and kangaroos are harder to find. The rangers take the lead in talking with the community about climate change and together they come up with a plan about how they’re going to deal with it.
The Indigenous Desert Alliance has produced an animated film with the support of the Purple House Pintupi Luritja Language Group to tell a story about climate change and a community taking action to adapt to it. The key message is that climate change is part of the story now and we all need to come up with our own stories and ways to deal with it.
We can't do it alone but if it's about our community, we need to do it our way.

"Nitmiluk" is the area nearby, traditional lands of the Jawoyn people and also the name of the National Park around Katherine Gorge. The song finishes with traditional dancing; at their concert at the Barunga Festival, 11 June 1995.

Men from Barunga (formerly known as Bamyili) in the Katherine region of the Northern Territory of Australia perform a dance illustrating spearfishing, followed by a very skilful solo; they then take their leave. This was recorded in 1978 in Lajamanu with an old 8 mm film camera, so the technical quality is poor.
This short film is about how to say 'to do with' in one language from the Goldfields region of Western Australia. Join Mr. Nintipayi as he explains language each week.

After a 6 year hiatus, the B-Town Crew from Bourke, NSW return with a massive old-school jazz/funk/trap anthem that is ready to set the airwaves on fire. The track pulls no punches, celebrating local cultural identity and bringing ‘truth telling’ direct to Australian audiences. The tune features turntablism from Bliss & Eso producer ‘IZM’ and beats from Sydney-based underground legend ‘HAZY’.
Since 2017, the B-Town Warriors (as 15-year-old high school students) in collaboration with DPM have been renowned for their socially conscious and politically impactful music that not only entertains but inspires change. Known for their high energy, razor-sharp hip hop bars and killer hooks, re-igniting their ongoing collaboration with the Desert Pea Media Creative Team is a significant moment for the crew and the community.
The power of music and media to bridge gaps and amplify unheard voices is immeasurable. In 2016, B-Town Warriors and DPM released their hit debut single ‘People of the Red Sunset’ which dropped onto spot rotation on Triple J, attracted international media attention on its way to becoming a summer anthem of 2017 (400,000+ views on Youtube). The crew went on to release four other songs including the 2018 banger ‘Thundercloud’ that went on to win a National Indigenous Music Award, earning a segment on Channel 10’s ‘The Project’.
Desert Pea Media's ongoing projects in Bourke have been instrumental in fostering connections within these communities, building the trust and connection required to share story, knowledge, aspirations, and struggles through the medium of music and media. The project's objective is to empower these voices, create opportunity and drive real, meaningful change.
Funded by the NSW Government’s ‘Our Region, Our Voice’ Regional Youth Investment Program.
Special thanks to the B-Town mob, and to the Indigenous Community of Bourke for your trust and friendship over many years. Lub ya.
LYRICS
B-Town back on the track. Who dat?
Still black, still proud, still vibing
Things changed but they still the same –
another day red sun still rising
Another day another night – same old fight
same yarn you still denying that B-Town it should be thriving but we busy just surviving ANY?
------
The weight of the world’s still holding me down
The pressure and the pain is like a thundercloud
My people I reckon you old enough to stop buying what you getting sold cuz
It’s too heavy take it steady these drugs are making you cold bruz
On the cold stuff, lost and found
Not one role model in the whole damn town
On the big money just standing round
- On the big money just standing round
They gave us all of this pain then they say deal with it
And Then lock us up, and shook our lands then took our nans and the whole damn mob still feeling it
Don’t let the system define you
This law designed to divide you
Them old people standing beside you
Spark to the flame for the spirit inside you
New lore but it’s still the same,
New world still feel the pain,
New crew new track still proud an blak,
Still looking for change,
still killing this game,
B-town biz
Im Repping my people on the rizz
still repping my elders making a future for the families on the mish,
Give it up, put ‘em up - WE –
still putting in work,
Still sparking that flame,
art for change ain’t playing no game We the b town mob from Bourke –
It’s a brand-new day/ but it’s still the same/
I wanna see it change/ gotta break the chain/
Cause where here to stay/ gonna lead the way/
To a brighter day/ for my peoples sake.
All these services gammon cuz
9 to 5 don’t work for us
You gotta earn the trust
24/7 in b-town bruz we work for love
Engage with us Empower us
Encourage us Employ me bruz
Fill my cup and we can build the trust
Got the whole damn mob on the Wilba bus
Calling all my generation
Calling all my people my relations
Singing with the winds of the 4 nations.
Songlines of the first creation.

Desert Pea Media are very proud to announce the long-awaited release of a collaborative music/ film production with JALI LALC and Ngyambul community members from Cabbage Tree Island on the North Coast of NSW.
The Cabbage Tree Island community has faced tremendous, ongoing hardship as the result of traumatic flood events across the region in 2022, forcing it's Indigenous community into temporary housing, while the ‘Cabbo’ community is completely rebuilt.
Initially invited to work with the ‘Cabbo’ community by JALI LALC on a short film/ documentary project title ‘NGUMBINY (HOME)’ – the project was so successful that the community acquired funding from NSW Government Regional NSW Children & Young People Wellbeing Recovery Initiative to produce a song/ music video that focused on the perspectives of young people.
The song, 'Wanna Go Home,' is a powerful, evocative reflection of the community's experience and highlights the strength and resilience of the young people of Cabbage Tree Island. Collaboratively written and produced by Desert Pea Media (featuring music by Adelaide-based artist JIMBLAH).
The projects have been made possible through the support of Jali Aboriginal Land Council, Desert Pea Media, NSW Government (Regional NSW Children & Young People Wellbeing Recovery Initiative), NSW Dept Aboriginal Affairs, Ballina Coast High School, M&K Business Solutions and Rous County Council.
Lyrics
The past feels like a dream, like it was almost forgotten
My life was full to the seams, my connection, belonging
My country, dance, and my song this feeling I belong
My culture it was strong since the beginning of time
The ships came along - with a gun and a bible
N what they did was wrong - at the point of a rifle
From arrival they been killing my mob - using yarndi and grog
All my old people wearing tags like a dog
Cabbos what we live for
Unity and family, our culture goin’ live on
There are stories in our river, our river (Ballun) sings the old songs
We tellers of our story, that’s why we gorn’ remain strong
It’s a feeling that the eyes can’t see
I dream of a place where I can be
Where the river meets the creek
My Island Home, still waiting for me.
Reppin the green and gold
Sunset through the cane smoke
Mudcrabs and mangroves
We just wanna go home
Reppin’ the green and gold
Sunsets through the cane smoke
Mudcrabs and mangroves
We just wanna go home
On the 2nd of March - we were torn through the heart
Mother Nature brought the water, ripped my family apart
We were left in the dark in the caravan park
(Brah) We lost our all our belongings, now we back to the start.
So be proud of who you are, we been dancing from the start
With our stories and art, Dreaming came from the stars
Believe we make a change; we’re changing up the past.
Breaking chains from off our heart bringing light to this dark
We got all this water flooding in our plains
And there is all these stories flowing in my veins
We’re rising up to the top that’s never found
And we keep getting pushed to the soil beneath the ground
Reppin’ the green and gold
Sunsets through the cane smoke
Mudcrabs and mangroves
We just wanna go home
Reppin’ the green and gold
Sunsets through the cane smoke
Mudcrabs and mangroves
We just wanna go home
We fight, we fight forever
We flow, we flow together
We stand, we stand forever
We stay, we stay forever
We’re fighting with the weather
We’re flowing with the river
We’re resilient,
And we keep on getting better
We fight, we fight forever
We flow, we flow together
We stand, we stand forever
We stay, we stay forever
We’re fighting with the weather
We’re flowing with the river
We’re resilient,
And we keep on getting better

Desert Pea Media is very proud to present a new collaboration with the Gumbaynggirr and local Indigenous community of Coffs Harbour, NSW.
This production was created in November 2021 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process between Desert Pea Media artists, local Elders (Jagun Elders Group), local cultural leaders and an incredibly talented group of young people from Coffs Harbour and Nambucca Heads.
The overall purpose of the broader project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people. Focusing on knowledge, education, cultural identity, wellbeing and connection to country.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
The project was funded and co-produced by Enterprise & Training Company (ETC) - a community orientated, not-for-profit provider of employment, training and business services in Coffs Harbour and along the East Coast of NSW and QLD.
The DPM team feel deeply honoured and grateful to learn, share and create with the Coffs Harbour community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
Special thanks to Ceharnie Martin, Aunty Jennie Rosser, Julie Powick and Corrinna Dahlstrom from ETC for all of your hard work and support to make this project possible.
Special thanks to all the TO's of Coffs Harbour - The Gumbaynggirr People, and all of the mob in the region that participated, welcomed us and shared their time, their stories and their country for the creation of this production. We are humbled and grateful for your trust and friendship.

LYRICS
This my dreaming – Gumbaynggirr Country saltwater and fresh
Connection to country and culture’s how I measure success
And my people been walking this land since time began
Following the footprints in the sand of Birrigan
Blood in the water, my people dealing with trauma
From slaughter – Gave them dog tags and called them flora and fauna
We here to warn ya ----- yeh we turnin’ the corner
So I can make a positive future for my son and my daughter (lezgo)
All the bad spirits go with the smoke
(bigaar yalga yarri juumbu)
All the good spirits come through the smoke
(garruroi maani yarri juumbu)
My old people gave me knowledge and hope
Way before them other fullas came here on a boat
We know who we are
We know where we’re from
We walk our country
Our culture keeping our people strong
Stories in stories, generations of nations
Connected in spirit, our roots build our foundations
We gotta keep the language alive, keep our dance alive,
We need to meet in the middle to keep our fire alight
if you’re in doubt, if you keep seeking it out
my old people and my culture gonna straighten you out (walkabout)
Why wha? Girriwaawa, new kinda freedom fighters
My people come together, .. we are the fire starters

"When women go to the shelter they go in all broken, hurt, shamed and lost, cause they can’t believe that their husbands treat them like no good dogs. We tell them you can walk your life again, that violence is no good for them and their children. We tell them to go away to the shelter and get strong again; you can fix your soul, heart and spirit up. Then you can come home to WALK YOUR LIFE again with your children and family.
That’s what these young mothers need to know - that they can do that and have family member’s help them.Our young woman need to go out bush and sit and talk with the auntie’s and nana’s and listen to their
story about their Walk of Life and get the healing from the bush. The cycle of violence is not our culture, never was and never will be."

'Some Kids Were Taken' is part of the ‘Shine – Healing songs from the heart and the land’ album. The album is a culmination of CAN WA's three-year music workshop program with the Quairading and Kellerberrin communities.
This documentary accompanies CAN WA's 'Karla Kurliny:Coming Home' publication which honours the Elders wisdom and stories, collated as part of the Cultural Mapping and Community Governance (CMCG) project. It features the young Noongar people who participated in a creative residential workshop. The workshop was born out of the Elders’ request that their young people connect with their culture. ‘Our young people are dying,’ Elders told us. ‘They need their culture.’
The young people talk about their perceptions of Aboriginal culture and traditional knowledge. They share their experiences of drugs and alcohol through theatre performances. Elders and youth together grapple with the challenges they face when navigating modern life and the legacy of colonisation.

“How do we get pigs out of the rainforest?” This is a critical question facing Kalan Rangers, based in Cape York Peninsula. In this video, Traditional Owner Dion Creek points out an example of how pigs can impact the biodiversity of tropical rainforests.

This is the Pukatja Get to School challenge. Three kids compete with each other to see who can get to school on time.
This video was produced as part of the Short & Sweet initiative commissioned by ICTV under the Remote School Attendance Strategy.
This production was written, recorded and filmed over 5 days as a collaboration with Desert Pea Media and young people from Thursday Island in the Torres Straits.
Part of an ongoing mentoring program - a partnership between Desert Pea Media, Smugglers of Light Foundation, UN Ltd, Tagai State College and APRA. 'Two Worlds' is long - awaited second production from Tagai Buway, who also featured on DPM's debut album 'Song Nation Volume 1'.
The crew from Thursday Island are also part of the DPM All-Stars - a hand picked group of Indigenous young people that came to Sydney to write and record a song about the UN Declaration of Human Rights for Indigenous People in partnership with UNICEF and performed at the 2014 Yabun Festival on Australia Day.
This song was written collaboratively with staff from Tagai State College on Thursday Island, local young people and elders, Toby Finlayson, Aunty Gail Mabo and Joel 'Roc West' Westlake from Desert Pea Media.
The story was developed around the concept of living in two worlds - traditional and contemporary. The participants identified the importance of pride, spirit and strength that comes from traditional islander culture, and the vitality of life on the islands. It is only through knowledge and understanding that young TSI people can survive in this rapidly changing contemporary culture.
And survive they will. As sure as the sun will rise.
This project was written, recorded and filmed in four days by Desert Pea Media artists, and co-written/ directed/ performed by students from Mian School in Dubbo, which runs alternative education programs for disengaged young people. They're the Last Chance Crew.
Attendance rates for Indigenous young people in Central West NSW are alarmingly lower than non-Indigenous students, and this program sought to create dialogue around these issues.
What prevents Indigenous young people engaging at school? Where does it come from? What does it mean for their future? How can it change? Will it change? Whose choice is it? What are YOU gunna do?

Written, recorded and filmed in 5 days, as part of an ongoing Desert Pea Media initiative in collaboration with the amazing community of Maningrida NT in Central Western Arnhem Land.
This video is an outcome of the second DPM project in Maningrida during 2014, and was made possible through a partnership between Desert Pea Media, Malabam Health, The Wiwa Project and Maningrida Greats Youth Service.
The Maningrida community is home to many language groups and clans from around Arnhem Land - one of the last remaining cultural strongholds for Indigenous Australians.
This song features over 30 performers of all ages and aims to create dialogue around local social and cultural issues such as kinship, healthy relationships, sexual health, cultural celebration and respect for women and all people in Maningrida.
The transference of knowledge and wisdom from elders to youth is at the core of this project. All lyric writing was done in a collaborative process between strong community leaders, old and young, sharing and discussing these important values and lessons.
A special thanks to Noeletta Mckenzie and the Youth Centre staff for hosting the project, Maningrida Education Centre for accommodating us, to Natalie Carey and the Wiwa Project for her support and commitment, and to Victor Rostron for his ongoing guidance and direction.

LORRPU was born into a musical family, including most of the Gulf Country legends from Arnhem Land. His father was the keyboard player for legendary Top End band, Soft Sand.
The demo version of his song “Lorrpu” (meaning White Cockatoo) won NT Pop Song of the Year in 2013 and is based on an Aboriginal legend of his homeland, sung exclusively in the Yolngu language of Gupapuyngu.
Now his debut self-titled album is being released on 25 July 2016, featuring songs in a mix of Gupapuyngu, Pitjantjatjara and English, including traditional songlines (Wadulunha), as well as songs about social problems such as petrol sniffing (Pitula Wanti).

That's Australia Series 1 – EP 25 Bull Buggies
For tens of thousands of years, the rich and beautiful sounds of thousands of languages washed across this earth.
Over all of Australia it is believed there were more than five hundred at one time. Around two hundred years ago, a new language began to replace them, sweeping across Australia with such force that some parts of it could no longer hear the voices that told its stories and held its secrets.
A deep silence seemed to be looming.
Then, finally, a change began. As the volume of the old words faded to a whisper in some places, the people who are their custodians began to take action, calling for respect, for the rights to speak and be heard in their traditional tongues, while stirring everyone to appreciate the treasury of knowledge held in their languages.
The Queensland Indigenous Languages Advisory Committee was formed in 2005 in recognition of the need for a state body to advocate for Indigenous languages. Many of the group have known each other for many years prior through informal language networks. Together they have achieved many things for Queensland languages.
Over the years the women have found a collective passion for music and song. Some just love to sing and others wants to see their songs passed on the younger women. It was decided that for one meeting the women would each bring a song in their language to share with the others.
This contemporary musical gathering seeded the realisation singing in this way gives new life to the ancient process of sharing music between communities, and empowers the participants to share their languages.╩
Join with them, by listening or singing along, to let their ancient lands once again - and in ever louder volume - hear the voices that hold and tell its stories.

Part of a series of seven short films incorporating illustration and animation about some of the artists from Ampilatwatja. Developed by Lara Damiani. Produced by Caroline Hunter and Lara Damiani
The Artists of Ampilatwatja community was established in 1999 near Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. The work produced by the artists is recognisably distinct from other Aboriginal artistic communities, due to the application of fine dots and the often bright and child-like figurative depiction of the land.
Most of the artists paint Arreth, which translates to ‘strong bush medicine’, demonstrating a deep connection to country. A veritable source of life, the land has provided and sustained Alyawarr people for generations, as every plant and animal has a vital role to play within the ecological system. The paintings pay homage to the significance and use of traditional bush medicine, allowing an insight into their community. Yet underneath the iridescent surfaces, there is an underlying sense that there is more to these landscapes than meets the eye. In keeping with the religious laws, the artists reveal only a small amount of knowledge to the uninitiated. The esoteric information that is held sacred to these artists and their people is concealed from the public and layered underneath the common visual narrative, masked by the delicate layered dots of the painting. The many levels of interpretation permit artists to present their art to an often culturally untutored public without compromising its religious nature. Artists talk of two broad levels of interpretation, the “inside” stories which are restricted to those of the appropriate ritual standing, and the “outside” stories which are open to all.

A song written by Stan Coster and recorded by Slim Dusty about Australia's great poet.
Former AFL footballer and founder of The Long Walk Michael Long shares his inspiring story with Project 1 Million.
Michael Long was a star for the Essendon Football Club between 1989 and 2001, was a member of two premiership sides and the winner of the 1993 Norm Smith Medal.
Following his retirement, Michael took it upon himself to get Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander issues back on the national agenda. After returning home from yet another Aboriginal funeral, Michael decided that something needed to be done about the plight of his people. He resolved to meet with Prime Minister John Howard to discuss his concerns… even if he had to walk all the way to Canberra to do it.
Today, Michael and his supporters continue to promote the story of The Long Walk in all communities. More than 15,000 people join The Long Walk to Dreamtime at the 'G each year.
The Long Walk is committed to the health and wellbeing of Indigenous Australians.
We believe ALL Australians are entitled to a home, a job and an education.
All the work we do is focused on achieving equality between Indigenous and non Indigenous Australians.

Featuring Rayella and the children of Elliott School and Newcastle Waters School! This film details how Rayella and the Marlinja community are maintaining their Mudburra language through contemporary music. Rayella come from a long line of musical history. Raymond Dixon was a guitarist with the Kulimindini Band who released three successful albums throughout the 1980’s and 1990’s. Ray’s daughter and lead singer, Eleanor Dixon, was raised during this era and as a result of a rich musical upbringing has been singing for most of her life. Their lyrics, sung in Mudburra, deliver a journey into the heartbeat of Australia’s centre and are filled with tales of life and history from the Indigenous Mudburra people’s homeland. The film follows Rayella teaching Mudburra children their song Warlungka which is a meta-lesson on Aboriginal learning styles. It also features interviews with Eleanor and Raymond Dixon on their approaches to language revitalisation and music.

greatest artists of all time – John McDonald, art critic
The Art Gallery of South Australia’s 2018 TARNANTHI opens to the public this Thursday 25 October. TARNANTHI is an annual event illuminates the diversity and depth of Contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art by alternately staging an expansive city-wide festival in one year and a focus exhibition the following year. TARNANTHI also includes an annual Art Fair, artist talks, performances and events.
This year TARNANTHI will present the first major survey of works by one of Australia’s leading contemporary artists – master bark painter John Mawurndjul.
Developed and co-presented with the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA), in close association with Maningrida Arts & Culture, John Mawurndjul: I am the old and the new includes over 160 works, spanning forty years of the artist’s practice.
Presented bilingually in Kuninjku (pronounced Goo-nin-goo) and English, the exhibition illuminates Kuninjku culture and the dynamic connections between land and ancestral power in Mawurndjul’s home in Western Arnhem Land. It also reveals the mastery of an artist who vividly provides a narrative thread linking the past to the present and beyond.
Internationally celebrated, John Mawurndjul defies boundaries and containment. The master bark painter creates work that is traditional yet innovatively contemporary, located specifically in his homeland but relevant to the world, and founded on beliefs that are ancestral but transcend time. Exhibition co-curator and TARNANTHI: Contemporary Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Art, Artistic Director, Nici Cumpston explains ‘John Mawurndjul is an artist who calls up centuries of art making to create contemporary art. Through this exhibition he has generously shared the bounty of his cultural inheritance while challenging the notions of old and new, local and global.’
Presented as part of TARNANTHI in partnership with BHP, and with the valued support of the Government of South Australia, John Mawurndjul: I am the old and the new is the major offering for TARNANTHI in 2018.
Laura Tyler, Asset President, BHP Olympic Dam says ‘BHP is honoured to partner with TARNANTHI to celebrate the work of master bark painter John Mawurndjul. As a global resource company, we seek to build enduring relationships with the traditional owners connected to our operations around the world. As Principal Partner of TARNANTHI, we are enormously proud to bring together Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists from around Australia to share their stories and culture through works of art.’
John Mawurndjul: I am the old and the new will be officially opened on Thursday 25 October at 5.30pm for 6pm on the forecourt of the Art Gallery of South Australia with artist John Mawurndjul in attendance and performance by an all female rock group, the Ripple Effect Band, also from Maningrida.
90's Aussie iconic rock band 'Chocolate Starfish' have teamed up with indigenous Hip Hop duo 'Karnage n Darknis' to re-invent Chocolate's 90's hit song MOUNTAIN.

Central Land Council Rangers ‘Looking After Country”
Over 100 Rangers gathered on Arrernte Country, travelling thousands of kilometres to Hamilton Downs Camp for their annual Central Land Council Ranger Camp. Amongst a busy training and development program rangers were guided by IHHP through a creative process of writing, recording and filming their very own Music Video called ‘Looking After Country’. This creative process provided voice for the rangers from 16 different groups across a vast geographical landscape encompassing many language groups. The rangers expressed their combined values of connection to country, culture, and lore and spoke about their obligation and responsibility to carry on the important work of their ancestors. In order to keep up with the changing landscape and environmental impacts, new Rangers are embracing new skills and employing cutting edge technology. During the camp Rangers were put through their paces. The sometimes risky and difficult tasks of being a remote ranger means they need the skills and qualifications to safely and confidently perform their jobs. From wrangling venomous snakes, driving bob cats and ATV’s, chemicals, trapping feral cats, using newly developed apps to protect threatened species (Bilby’s) through to obtain drivers license and reversing trailers.
Aboriginal Rangers are unique and leading the way in combining Indigenous ecological knowledge and modern contemporary land management practices.
Rangers groups who were represented at the 2018 Camp were:
Murnkurrumurnkurru Rangers
Northern Tanami Rangers
Warlpiri Rangers
Muru – warinyi Ankkul Rangers
Anmatyerr Rangers
Arltarpilta Inelye Rangers
Ltyentye Apurte Rangers
Anangu Luritjiku Rangers
Kaltukatjara Rangers
Tjakura Rangers
Angus Downs Anangu Rangers
Tjuwanpa Rangers
Tjuwanpa Womens Rangers
APY Rangers
Northen Territory Government Aboriginal Park Rangers

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce our new collaboration with the Yaegl community in Maclean and Yamba in Northern NSW. This production brought together Elders, community members and young people to create a conversation about culture, country and community.
This project was funded by the Yulgilbar Foundation, and project managed by the good people at Maclean High School. This project is the second production in an ongoing partnership between Yulgilbar and DPM, to create awareness and conversation around cultural engagement, mental health and wellbeing for young Original Nations people in the Clarence Valley.
‘River To The Sea' was created in December 2018, the result of a five-day Desert Pea Media storytelling workshop. Co-written by, and starring, an incredibly talented group of young people, community members and local Elders from Maclean and Yamba NSW - with support from the DPM team and Maclean High School Staff.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
The DPM team feels deeply honoured to learn, share, create and build friendships and connection with the Yaegl community in Maclean & Yamba. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved. These are friendships and experiences that all of us really treasure.
This project featured the musical direction and production of DPM producer Josh Nicholas (aka Hazy). We thank you brother for you artistic vision and hard work.
Special thanks to Project Manager, Liza Hamilton from Maclean High School, Madeleine Noble from The Yulgilbar Foundation, and all of the Yaegl Elders and local community members for making us feel so welcome, and sharing such a powerful creative journey.

‘Alpiri’ is a form of motivational or instructional speech traditionally used in the early morning in Anangu camps. Usually an elder would get up early to broadcast a message to people waking in the camp. In the alpiri video series, we have produced short videos in which senior Anangu leaders send messages out to viewers.

As part of NAIDOC Week celebrations in 2017 with the theme Our Languages Matter, ABC North West have learnt some Ngarluma language.
Joseph Dunstan, presenter from ABC North West radio travelled to meet Lorice Douglas at the Wangka Maya Language Centre in Port Hedland.
While there are over 30 different Indigenous languages in the Pilbara, Ngarluma is used by many people in Port Hedland, Karratha and surrounding districts.
Here are some Ngarluma phrases:
Wanyjila nyinkutharndu yurlga? (Where is your head?)
Wanyjila nyinkutharndu jirdamarra? (Where are your eyes?)
Wanyjila nyinkutharndu thaya? (Where’s your mouth?)
Wanthala nyinkutharndu mulha? (Where’s your nose?)
Wanyjila nyinkutharndu gurlga? (Where is your ear?)
Wanyjila nyinkutharndu ngumba? (Where’s your face?)
Ngayi nhaguru nyindaguru thunthugalyi!
I’ll see you all tomorrow!

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce a new collaboration with the Djabuganydji community of Kuranda in North QLD.
This production, along with two short films were created over 14 days in June 2019 - an outcome of of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local Indigenous young people, community members, Elders, local health services, school staff and other community members.
Part of a major DPM initiative called 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Wellbeing' - funded by North Queensland Primary Health Network. The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional wellbeing for Indigenous young people.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
The DPM team is deeply honoured to share, create and build connection with these incredible, talented, resilient group of young people. The entire Kuranda community is very special to us and we are truly grateful for the connection, trust and friendship that has evolved from this process.
These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved. These friendships and experiences are deeply valued and respected.

LYRICS
Welcome to Kuranda, where the beat drops in the treetops
Where we rock with green tree frogs, and the gunyarra (crocodile), them big crocs
This is Hip Hop from Kuranda, where the Barron meets the sea
Where we smell curry and campfire get ready for a big mad feed.
Cultures in my veins, my historys in my bloodline
This knowledge is in my brain (yep) my story’s within my songline
Keep our culture alive (brrrr) guri buga djunal (good morning) - one time
Young and bright in the streets light and sunshine
We them deadly Bama ngungi (mob) coming up from Djabugay country
Ya, Indigenous mob, yabbas (brothers) , Djidgas (sisters) , bunjis (brother-in-law), murri’s
Home of the budajjii (carpet snake) (AY) guyu (fish) (AY) bundarra (cassowary) (YAH)
Our creator Bullurru (creator spirit) , dulbil (wallaby), gangla (kangaroo), djama (snake), Gunyarra (crocodile)
Bringin’ this culture, back on the track, we Djabugay - BLACK, Reggae - RAP
KDA, him again? TG, can’t get much better than that!
With my family at my side, strong love that you can’t hide, see?
You can’t deny that strength that I get
With my ancestors behind me.
Bulmba bulurru (Home of the creator)
Boonda bana wurru (Mountains and running water)
Budajji bundarra (Carpet snake, cassowary)
Bama ngungi Tjunburru (Our people follow your path)
We got fighting on the streets, my people dropping like leaves
Better believe this grog and ganja come from trauma and grief
What’s beneath? Where the relief? We got too much pressure to measure
All the mob from 4 communities gotta come back together
Anxiety and depression - inside of me got me stressing
Sometimes and second guessing and fighting my self expression
Now listen to the definition, ‘What ya missin’ on this mission!’
We can lessen the stress if we learn one simple lesson (and stick together forever)
Harmony in our community unity for you and me,
education is truly key if it is truth you seek
People stream on screens but we believe in dreaming by creeks and greenery
Don’t be a scheming demon - we beamin’ peace in this scenery
Opportunity, strong community, gotta go make that change
Because you can heal yourself, you can heal yourself from that pain
That shame, you can break that chain, you gotta lift your game
You gotta grab that mic, sing your song till everybody shout your name

Northern Tanami Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) committee members directed the CLC to re-imagine their IPA Plan of Management, an English-heavy guide book for looking after the IPA. The brief was to create a lush digital resource using spoken Warlpiri that could be accessed both online and offline to mirror the content of the management plan and be navigated through voice commands. The CLC’s hope is that the IPA digital storybooks will help all Warlpiri – from elders to school children – to better understand and support the work to keep country healthy and culture strong. The CLC has made digital storybooks for both the Southern Tanami and the Northern Tanami IPAs. See www.ngurra.org and www.walyalku.org.au
IPA in English stands for an ‘Indigenous Protected Area’. The Australian Government made the IPA program to help Aboriginal people from all over Australia to look after country for the benefit of all Australians. An IPA looks after the plants, animals and cultural sites for future generations. To become an IPA, an Aboriginal group makes a decision to add the land they own (under land rights) to the National Reserve System. This means the land becomes part of Australia’s system of protected areas.
An IPA is like an Aboriginal-owned national park. Making land an IPA is a voluntary decision that Aboriginal people make and they can change their mind anytime.
Areas of country that have lots of different types of animals and plants (and especially those that are becoming extinct) are important in the IPA. Scientists say these areas have biodiversity conservation significance or are important to look after.
An IPA is managed by its Indigenous owners, administered through an Indigenous organisation or land council. Both traditional and western scientific knowledge is used. Day to day management includes weed and feral animal control, fire management, revegetation, wildlife protection and monitoring. Caring for country in an IPA creates jobs for Aboriginal rangers.

The weekly sneak peek of new videos on ICTV week beginning 6 February 2020.
Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce a new collaboration with the Bundjalung/Weyabul community in Baryulgil, in the Clarence Valley on the North Coast of NSW.
This production was created over 7 days in December 2019 - an outcome of of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local Original Nations young people, community members, Elders, High School staff and local services.
The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people in 8 communities around the North Coast. The project is called 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Well-being' - funded by North Coast Primary Health Network.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities :)
The connections created during this project with the community and local young people are friendships that the DPM team highly value and respect. We as a team feel deeply honored to learn, share and create with the Baryulgil community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
'Garrama' was Directed, shot and edited by DPM Creative Director - Toby Finlayson and filmmaker Justin Smith. We thank you both for your artistic vision and awesome work.
Special thanks to Bianca Monaghan and the Monaghan family, and staff at Baryulgil School for all of your support over the years, and the Elders and community from Baryulgil for having us on country.

Ngalia man, Kado Muir takes us down the yiwarra to the Patapuka. He reveals the hidden secrets of the land, the same ones his mother passed down to him.
Peter Salmon, now in his 80s is the last speaker of the Indigenous Thiin (or Thiinma) language. With only a few of his younger relatives able to understand Thiin (or Thiinma), Peter is keen for his language to be recaptured and revived before it is too late.
The Lyons River in the Upper Gascoyne region of Western Australia is his home country.
Raised by his mother in the days when many children were taken away from their Indigenous families, he is proud to carry the heritage of his language.
Peter has three favourite words that inspire his memory of younger days captured here for the ABC Indigenous Word Up project.:
bibi - Mother
nguurru - Horse
baba - water
Other Thiin (or Thiinma) words Peter shared with us:
Ngatha yinha ngurrala buna - I'm here now, I'm going on to my country
mithari - vicks bush
walhara - lemongrass
bugardi - snakewood
mardalha - beefwood
gunayija - creeping mulga
marndabilharu - goanna with green arm
jabardi - jam tree
jilhu - tea tree
yilirri - flat
gujuwi - red
birran - white
As the day passed with Peter travelling across country, his memories came alive as if they were today. Each tree, rock and animal we encountered were translated into Thiin before our eyes by this extraordinary living Thiin elder. Each word is translated by language centre worker Rosie Sitorius for ABC Awaye!.

Across Australia there are hundreds of different Aboriginal languages, some that are still spoken fluently across generations, and others that are endangered, and are in the process of being revived or preserved.
But what’s involved in keeping these ancient languages alive, and who are the people doing the work?
In 2016 there was a WA language conference held in the Kalgoorlie-Boulder. It was an event that brought together Aboriginal language speakers and experts from across WA and Australia, but it was also a place for people to come together and celebrate culture and share their vision for the future.
This video captures the language and the stories of some of those people who attended the annual gathering, and it was produced with help from First Languages Australia.

Wadawurrung country stretches from the mountains to the sea. It includes hills, rivers and grassy plains, creeks and coasts and includes modern towns such as Werribee, Geelong and Ballarat in Victoria.
Since colonisation, white fellas have tried to write down our Wadawurrung language, even though there are no equivalent sounds in English.
We had no written language so early settlers wrote down what they heard using their own language trying to reproduce the sounds.
In this series of short films we correct some of the language spelling of the places we all know and explain the meaning behind our stories.
Language needs a place to live, and this is a chance for us to tell our stories and our language.
Our language is sleeping, but will soon reawaken.
In this video we explain the meaning behind the place Ballaarat, now spelt Ballarat, and why it is such a good place to live. It was a gathering place for both Wadawurrung people and animals that moved off the grassy plains to shelter during winter.

This video was originally contributed to the ABC Open Mother Tongue project, which invited Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities to share a story about their mother tongue.
Making this video was a journey about finding myself, reconnecting with my mob and reaching out to other Indigenous mob to inspire them to find their connection to family, country and culture.
It's also about educating the broader community of non-Indigenous people, and the world, about what it really is to be an Aboriginal person, and what it means to us.
Physically and mentally I am in place where I feel I can speak about my life and portray the path I have traveled, and what I want to achieve out of making Indigenous films.
This video is very important to me because it shows the challenges I’ve been through in life, and how even though I was a part of such a huge family I was so disconnected. But now that I’ve made the film I feel like I’ve repaired a wound that’s been aching for so long.
The opportunity to make this film came up through my work at the Cairns Institute at James Cook University. A colleague asked me to attend an ABC Open workshop knowing I was interested in making a film and here my journey began, with the fantastic support of Gemma.
It felt really good going back to country to make the video as it was a discovery process, and a deeper affirmation that I belonged to somewhere very special. The place had such beautiful presence, not only with the environment, but with my family that also lived there.
I hope my video gives other people inspiration to find themselves, their family, their country and their culture, even if they feel there is no hope.
Making this film has been an absolute godsend and it has given me so much more confidence in myself, as well as educating others. It has also shown me the importance of recording cultural history. I would also like to thank, from the bottom of my heart, Gemma for all her support, guidance and mentoring as I think this project has opened the door to many possibilities for me, so THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

Rhonda Radley is a descendant of the Gathang and Dunghutti speaking people. She sees a need in her community to bring women from all the different Aboriginal groups together. She has found strength within herself to drive a movement that does just that, and to revive culture through language and practices.
Rhonda is working with three different age groups, representing the different phases of the feminine – young girls, teenage women and older women.
The movement is called Strong Sister, or in Gathang language, Djiyagan Dhanbaan.
The name underpins the concept behind this movement: a woman needs to be a strong sister to herself first, to become a strong sister for other women and a leader in the community.
Some of the ideas behind Strong Sister are to develop nurturing relationships between women in the community and provide a safe space to explore cultural identity.
Rhonda wants to empower women and give them a voice in their community. To work on this, she runs activities, like a day at the beach gathering pipis, that bring together women of all ages and backgrounds, including those who care for Aboriginal children.
Through working together, these women and girls are learning to tell their stories and express themselves through song, music and movement, connecting them to their culture. They are working towards performing their songs in Gathang language for the NAIDOC week mid year.
This film was made in collaboration with Rhonda Radley, beach footage shot by Ashley Davies and surf shots by Brett Dolsen. Producer Wiriya Sati.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to present a collaboration with the Bwlgcolman community on Palm Island in Far North Queensland.
'Salty Plum' - starring the legendary Nashae Bulsey, was created as part of a larger multi-arts project spanning 14 days in July 2019. An outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local young people, community members, Elders, and local services. This was made possible by an innovative and groundbreaking partnership with FNQ Primary Health Network.
The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Indigenous young people in 5 communities around FNQ (Kuranda, Bowen, Palm Island, Thursday Island & Lockhart River).
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
Desert Pea Media has been working with the community and families of Palm Island for more than a decade, and the opportunity to reconnect and create new connections is invaluable to us. These inter-generational conversations around wellbeing, grief, trauma and hopefulness/aspiration are critical to healthy communities, and sadly uncommon.
The relationships the DPM team has built on Palm Island are friendships that are highly valued and respected. These projects not only uplift and inspire participants and community members, but are profoundly impactful experiences for our Creative Team, our core family and our corresponding audiences all over the world. It is a deep honor for us to learn, share and create with all of you amazing mob around this beautiful, sacred country.
'Salty Plum' was Co-Directed, Shot and Edited by incredible filmmaker and DPM brother - Mitch O'Hearn. We thank you brother for your artistic integrity, commitment and passionate work with our DPM family over the past few years.
Special thank you and congratulations to the Bulsey family, also to Frank and Lindsay at Palm Island PCYC, to Jeannie Samm and staff at PICC, and to Aunty Lizzie Doomadgee and Uncle Allen Palm Island.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce a new collaboration with the Dunghutti community in South West Rocks, on the Mid North Coast of NSW.
This production, along with a short film were created over 14 days in August 2020 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local Dunghutti young people, community members, Elders, and local services.
The overall purpose of this particular project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people in 6 communities around the North Coast. The project is called 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Well-being' - funded by North Coast Primary Health Network.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities ?
The connections created during this project with the local community and local young people are friendships that the DPM team treasure. We as a team feel deeply honoured to learn, share and create with the Fig Tree families and wider community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
'Barrunba' was produced by DPM in-house Music Producer - Josh Nicholas aka 'Hazy'. We thank you brother for your artistic vision and awesome work.
Special thanks to Nancy Pattison, Lional Blair and Benelong Carroll, Aunty Cheryl Blair and Uncle Martin Ballangary and all the South West Rocks mob for having us on your beautiful country.

In celebration of International Women’s Day 2021, Alice Springs Town Council produced a series of 5 interviews with Central Australian women, representing several generations, who exemplify courage, determination and perseverance as ordinary women who have achieved extraordinary things.
This interview with Myra Ah Chee – mother, grandmother, language educator and artist – concluded the series.
Filming by Chris Cochrane Friedrich.
One hundred and five people volunteered to comb 8 Mile Beach for the 2020 annual Clean Up Groote Eylandt Day. The ALC Rangers and ladies from the Anindilyakwa Art Centre sorted through the debris and recorded:
- 4673 plastic bottle tops
- 2759 plastic bottles
- 883 thongs (406 left, 397 right + spare parts)
- 527 plastic cigarette lighters
- 405 floats
- 251 squid jigs
- 119 glass bottles
- 118 tooth brushes
- 55 rolls of tape
- 47 metal containers/gas bottles
- 4 ute loads of ghost nets and rope
The plastic based products are then recycled where possible through East Arnhem Regional Council’s recycling program, and up-cycled by the Anindilyakwa Arts who turn them into all sorts of amazing installations, including Macie Lalara’s monster fish (fish made of marine debris) which is touring Australia.
Once again thanks to all our partners including the Mamarika Clan, South32 GEMCO, Groote Eylandt and Bickerton Island Enterprises - GEBIE Civil and Construction, Community Development Program, Anindilyakwa Arts, Groote Eylandt and the Anindilyakwa Land Council for making this the biggest ever single marine debris campaign ever seen on the Groote Archipelago. #cleanupgrooteeylandtday
The video content was led by ALC Media, Anindiyakwa Land & Sea Rangers and Anindilyakwa Arts staff as a joint venture for Clean up Groote Eylandt Day 2020.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce a new collaboration with the Kuku Ya'u community in remote Lockhart River on the East Coast of Cape York in Far Northern Queensland.
'Malkari' (Kuku Ya'u word from traditional dance) was created as part of a larger multi-arts project spanning 14 days in Lockhart River in September 2019. An outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local young people, community members, Elders, and local services. This was made possible by an innovative and groundbreaking partnership with FNQ Primary Health Network.
This production, along with another short film and a song/music video were created over 14 days in August 2019 - an outcome of of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local Indigenous young people, community members, Elders, and local health services.
Focusing on the story of senior Kuku Ya'u Knowledge Holder - Father Brian Claudie, 'Malkari' is a celebration of cultural identity. The film focuses on the traditions of ceremony and song/dance, which are a foundational element of cultural identity for Kuku Ya'u people.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means being 'fair dinkum' and 'not gammon' and critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities :)
The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Indigenous young people in 5 communities around FNQ (Kuranda, Bowen, Palm Island, Thursday Island & Lockhart River). The project is called 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Well-being' - funded by North Queensland Primary Health Network.
The connections created during this project with the community, the young people and Father Brian Claudie are friendships that the DPM team highly value and respect, and we feel honored to learn, share and create with the Lockhart River Kuku Ya'u community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
These projects not only uplift and inspire participants and community members, but are profoundly impactful experiences for our Creative Team, our core family and audiences all over the world. It is a deep honour for us to learn, share and create with all of you amazing mob around this beautiful country.
Special thanks to Father Brian Claudie, Steve and Karen Mills, Paddy Hobson and staff at Lockhart River School for all of your incredible support, and staff at The Greenhoose for making us feel so welcome.

Manyardi is a song about songs. It was written and recorded in Minjilang in June 2020 as a collaborative media project through WARC. The project was about bringing together the traditional songlines of West Arnhem with non Indigenous music to engage people in learning more about the stories and culture of Minjilang.
Written and co-produced by Marcus Fletcher and Robbie Watson with SoundED.
Raymond Olodoodi has been a Ranger at Kiwirrkurra for 5 years. In this short video he talks about some of the Ranger Team's achievements during 2020 - aerial burning, cat hunting, holding a Men's camp and keeping everyone safe and busy during the COVID lockdown period. The video also includes perspectives from a younger ranger, the Kiwirrkurra Community Advisor and one of the Tjamu Tjamu directors.
In 1988 five species of native mammal were abundant on West Island. But the mammals disappeared after the cats arrived and none were caught in 5 trapping surveys from 2001-2010...
Then in 2011 the Sea Rangers started getting rid of of the cats.

Red Dust Role Models first tour to the Lajamanu Community has been a ripper!
With great help from role models Sue (Reddust) and Travis (SEDA), musicians Wayne and Steve (Realtone) worked with Lajamanu School Students to write and record this song and produce this video promoting healthy eating.
It was a whirlwind visit (just 3 days).... a chance to meet with the community and show them what a Red Dust Tour looks like.
The program kicked off with a brilliant nutritional workshop run by Carol from the Katherine West Health Board that involved the students working out how much sugar was in a can of soft drink and how many teaspoons that converted to.
Over the next couple of days, the students helped write the lyrics, program the beats, play the instruments and produce the video.
A special thanks must go to Dion, who played the acoustic guitar.
The video features 2 fruit mascots developed by the Katherine West Health Board and young community members.
Thanks to the Lajamanu Schools students and staff for being involved ..... see you soon!!
Red Dust Role Model Tour #3 to Kintore
18th, 19th & 20th September 2012
Part of Realtone Music Facilitators Steve Lane and Wayne Glenn's brief for this trip was to engage with the children of Kintore School (primary) to write and record a song and produce a video about the effects of too much sugar in your diet. (part of the Get Active, Eat Good Tucker, Live Longer campaign)
Wayne and Steve, are passionate about capturing authentic sounds from the community and our first port of call is to make contact with local musicians in the community.
In most cases, that may take a while... we need to establish who is one of the musical leaders of the community, then having explained our request, we drive around the community with them knocking on doors, seeing who is around.
This time as we arrived in Kintore, one of the first sounds we heard was a band ... we couldnt believe our fortune... and it got better! ... as we followed our ears to the source we discovered a band in full record mode .... muso's, amps and mics everywhere.
A Melbourne muso (Francis) was in town for 3 weeks...working through an Alice Springs University.... and all the bands were lined up to get there songs recorded.... something that doesnt happen much in Kintore.
We managed to meet some great musos and by the end of our first night there had a list of session musos that we could call on to help write the song, not to mention a place to record, some instruments and a mic'd up drumkit ... luxury!!
Over the next couple of days the song was written & recorded with the children of Kintore School and some of the local musicians.
A special thanks must go to George Butcher (son of the legendary Sammy Butcher of Warumpi Band fame) on guitar, Clive on drums and Solomon on vocals. Also to Francis, who facilitated much of the introductions and who lent us his gear.
The keys, percussion, maschine beats, harmonium, and other vocals were all performed by the children of Kintore School.
The track was engineered, edited and mixed by Steve Lane and Wayne Glenn.
A huge thanks must go to Joseph Carra at Crystal Mastering who mastered the song at such short notice.
Enjoy!!!
This story invites the audience to listen to Elders, artists and staff from three Aboriginal community controlled art centres as they share the vital role they play in keeping their Elders strong and connected. Elders are the backbone of these centres and play a critical role in maintaining intergenerational connection.

Friday Night Footy Promo: Plenty Hwy v Mt Allan (Senior Men Div 2 Semi Final)
In the warmth of a winter painting studio in the Northern Territory desert community of Kintore, a group of senior women artists, with Papunya Tula Artists, created a beautiful collaborative work that represents the dreaming stories and songs of their mothers and grandmothers.
Tjawina Roberts is one of the founding members of what was then called Irrunytju Arts and is now a senior artist with the Minyma Kutjara Arts Project. Her paintings draw on ancient tjukurpa as well as contemporary stories.
Mother Rene and daughter Maureen are both passionate artists working at Minyma Kutjara Arts. Rene was one of the founding members of Irrunytju Artists. Her work draws on her extensive knowledge of Country and the important rock holes around her place of birth. A skilled bush woman Rene incorporates wood carving (punu), weaving with tjanpi (grass) and beadwork into a contemporary art practice.
Working in sculpture and on canvas, Maureen uses a strong, vibrant colour pallet to paint the landscapes of Pukurra, the Tali (sandhill) Country of her father and grandfather. Developing her own distinct painting style, Nelsons’ work is bold and colourful, depicting these significant landmarks.
Animation - Grace Robinya remembers the old days – station life. Cowboys herded cattle whilst women tended to the domestic.

In 2018, Ku Arts coordinated two carving camps on both Nukunu and Adnyamathanha country. The camps included language workshops supported by the Mobile Language Team, and the study of objects made by direct ancestors of the Adnyamathanha and Nukunu participants in partnership with South Australian Museum.
Through making tools and studying language, Adnyamathanha and Nukunu men were able to deepen their understanding of the way their ancestors made life and interacted with the environment. Through sharing skills and knowledge, the men of the neighbouring language groups have not only produced important artistic works but have deepened friendships that will help to keep Adnyamathanha and Nukunu carving practice strong.

There are other ways to do this and other tools you can use. This is how we did it today using the tool we had.
There was plenty of honey in the tree that we didn't collect. We just got enough for a taste...
Just thought we'd have a fish in Roebuck Bay for a couple of hours and Ended up in Dampier Creek.
There were so many catfish! But we did manage to catch ourselves a couple of good fish as well. No crab unfortunately.

IHHP & Miwatj Health visited Galiwin'ku (Elcho Island) to produce the song 'Galiwin'ku Sunset'. As part of the Yaka Buny'djurr Ngarali campaign with Miwatj Health this song was written with the students of Galiwin'ku and the community to promote healthy lifestyles.
Yaka Buny'djurr Ngarali translates to 'Don’t Smoke'. The history of tobacco in Arnhem Land spans back over 300 years to the era of Macassan and Indigenous Australian trading. The people of Galiwin'ku traded sea cucumbers for tobacco. Tobacco was used as part of ceremony, but with the influence of the Australian Army tobacco smoking became a regular part of life for elders and children.
We are promoting healthy lifestyle choices through sport, dance, healthy eating and promoting health-seeking behaviours. We are hoping thru this campaign to de-normalising the use of tobacco.
Thank you to the community of Galiwin'ku, Shepherdson College, Sport & Rec staff and ALPA RJCP. Massive respect for the amazing dancers in the Bungul and the families involved that happened while we were in Galiwin'ku.
The 5th and final instalment of the Miwatj Health and IHHP collaboration is here, in this video from Yirrkala and around Gove Peninsula. Working with the students of Yirrkala Community Education Centre, and students from around Gove, we wrote this song about quitting tobacco, and other healthy lifestyles choices. We are hoping thru the Yaka Buny'djurr Ngarali campaign to encourage people to quit smoking, or to never take it up. We want to build the confidence of the young leaders of each community we visited, to say no to peer pressure, and the stand up for themselves, their community and their culture.
If we all quit tobacco, we can stand strong, stand tall and live much healthier lives. Yaka Buny'djurr Ngarali.
Massive thanks to Lucas, Ben, Boogie, PJ and the whole Miwatj Team for their amazing support during the last 5 weeks. Also massive thanks to Yirrkala CEC and Nhulunbuy and Ski Beach schools.

Balang Lewis and the four senior Wagalak, Rembarrnga and Dalabon Songmen on this landmark Australian album are all sadly passed since its original, strictly limited release in August 2007. But their songs, as captured in an inspired collaboration with some of the most respected and inventive contemporary musicians in Australia, will live forever.
Songs from Walking With Spirits is a unique document to celebrate the potency of an ancient storytelling tradition. For more than 80 years, ethnomusicologists have travelled to the Beswick/ Wugularr community east of Katherine to witness the rare gravity of First Nations Songmen singing their country. A constant and indelible presence in a changing world, these men are keepers of the codes that unlock the map of kin, country and culture.
It was the late actor, singer, musician and Beswick elder Balang T. E. Lewis (The Chant of Jimmy Blacksmith, The Shadow King) who brought Roy Ashley, Micky Hall, Victor Hood and Jimmy Wesan together with revered Daddy Cool guitarist Ross Hannaford (who also passed in 2016), Gurrumul bassist Michael Hohnen and select other rock/ jazz/ contemporary musicians to help these ancient songs of country resonate anew.
What at first glance might seem like an odd pairing of musical cultures, in retrospect can be seen as a unique experiment in Australian genre-bending and blending.
The results are unlike anything heard before in Indigenous or western music: a breathtaking sound and energy that brings progressive dialogue to timeless concepts in an era when the promise of First Nations recognition has returned to the forefront of national awareness.

My first ever smoked Ribs!

Enjoy! ?
WOW bro, first impression off the lookout above the beach we were blown way!! The ocean was flat as far as your could see, turquoise water turning into a deeper blue as the tide was retreating out. This place was unreal, fun sandy track on the way down to the beach, tight and plenty of branches to pinstripe your 4wd. So good. Once on the beach turning right to head south is the only 4wd beach access as the northern end from the beach entrance is pedestrian only. The tide was heading out so we were able to park on the beach and head out to fish off the rocks, there was a tidal crossing that I'd assume is only accessible at low tide, once across you just navigate your way to where you wanna fish and have a crack! Jennifer hooked a juvenile Spanish Mackie on a 70g Halco Twisty straight off the bat first cast! We'd go on to hook another 5 or 6, losing a couple but having heaps of fun! We did have bait, some frozen prawns and caught Cod and losing line to others too.
11/10 would recommend a Five Rocks day trip and 10psi if you wanna make it up the beach to leave lol

Lizzie Trew is a young Pitjantjatjara and Arrernte woman whose creativity shines in this film. Initially her idea was to compose a song. The complexities of the sounds and lyrics she created became the force behind her ‘Song Dress’ as she wanted to ‘see’ the music. Lizzie designed the dress, and painted the fabric, which matches the rhythm, flow and beats of the music. Alongside some of her animation work, this film showcases how her dress makes her feel. Lizzie is a creative phenomenon.

Boys from St. Therese's School (now called Murrapurtiyanuwu) on Bathurst Island in the far north of Australia learn how to make the three-pronged fish spears during afternoons at school dedicated to Tiwi culture. This was filmed in 1987.
Yipirinya School hosted an empowering Red Dust Healthy Living Program that focused on the themes of safety, security, and trust. The program aimed to provide a safe space for students to express themselves and develop a sense of identity, confidence, and self-esteem. The highlight of the week was the creation of a fantastic music video called 'Be Brave', which was a collaborative effort that engaged the entire school community.
The lyrics of the song were developed with the help of Aunties from community and incorporated
the four languages taught at the school - Central Arrernte, Western Aranda, Luritja, and Warlpiri.
This represented the school's two-way learning purpose and vision. The team brainstormed what school, culture, and family mean and how invaluable it is to be connected to your identity and
culture. The students led the way, creating their own dance moves and raps, that have been
showcased throughout the music video.
Much of the music video was shot on Country, with groups venturing out to locations such as the
sand dunes, football oval, and Anzac Hill. The rap element of the music video was a focus area in the
planning process, and many of the students enjoyed workshopping the story together. To make the
project even more impactful, the teams from Jesuit Social Services and Artful Dodgers collaborated
on its development and execution, leveraging a wider range of skill sets and allowing more students
to benefit from one-on-one engagement.
The music track played at the Ghost Gums festival and the music video was proudly shown at the
Yipirinya school family day. Kirra Voller, Yipirinya music teacher, expressed her joy in having a whole
team of creative minds to collaborate with to pull it off. She says, “There’s not a day that goes by
since recording it that a student doesn’t sing, ‘be brave, be strong, be wonderful’, somewhere in the
schoolyard”.
The week in Yipirinya was a beautiful and inspiring one, and the music video was a testament to the
creativity and collaborative spirit of the school community. The themes of safety, security, and trust
were explored in a meaningful way, and the students were empowered to express themselves and
develop essential skills for personal and academic success.

Pineapple Pork Adobo step by step how I made it, very easy and definitely worth a crack!
Thank you my Filipino people, Adobo is life.
Ingredients:
- Pork spare ribs
- garlic
- peppercorns
- palm sugar
- vinegar
- soy sauce
- bay leaves
- tin pineapple chunks
- water
Method:
1. Brown the pork, remove, dice and set aside.
2. Cook peppercorns & garlic for a minute or two before adding pork back in.
3. Add palm sugar and the juice of the tin pineapples and stir through. Add vinegar, bay leaves and soy sauce and cook for 2-3 minutes.
4. Top up with water (it will look bland but trust the process) reduce the heat to a medium simmer, put a lid on and cook for 35-40 minutes.
5. Remove the lid, crank the heat to high and start reducing the adobo sauce. At about half way reduced add the pineapple chunks and continue to reduce until the sauce thickens. Once it sticks to the back of a spoon it is ready.
Serve with rice, garnish with spring onions then simply enjoy this magnificent dish!
In the NAIDOC 2023 year 'For Our Elders', the Goldfields Aboriginal Language Centre created a series of films ensuring Goldfields Elders have a voice. A film has been made, one in each community in the Goldfields, featuring an Elder talking about the democratic process of voting.
This is a film from Milyirrtjarra (Warburton) Community in the Goldfields region of Western Australia and Elder, Lynette Smith is discussing her voting story with Angelica McLean.
With the 'Voice Referendum' coming up later in 2023, it is the perfect time to ensure that Elders have a chance to record their thoughts and wishes with regards to young people participating in the referendum and using their democratic voting rights.

Straight outta Bourke NSW, '28 On Top' is a collaboration that came from an ongoing Desert Pea Media project with students from Bourke High School and local community members.
Since 2016, DPM has been working with the Bourke community to deliver songwriting and film projects. One of the outcomes of the project was a group called the 'B-Town Warriors'. In 2017, they released their hit debut single ‘People of the Red Sunset’ which dropped onto spot rotation on Triple J, attracted international media attention on its way to becoming a summer anthem of 2017 (400,000+ views on Youtube). The crew went on to release four other songs including the 2018 banger ‘Thundercloud’ that went on to win a National Indigenous Music Award, earning a segment on Channel 10’s ‘The Project’.
Throughout 2023 - Desert Pea Media has been delivering a new, foundation-building project model in Bourke. Engaging previous B-Town Warriors participants in skills development, leadership, cultural education and creative development projects. Through an ongoing mentoring project with DPM artists, OG B-Town Warriors Lorraine Dutton and Jemmah Knight have been employed throughout the year at Bourke High School, working with current students to create dance, music and film productions.
'Home' is a brand new iteration of DPM's work. Co-facilitated by Lorraine Dutton, Jemmah Knight, Dimity Dixon, Mervyn Powell and Braith Kelly and the DPM Creative Team.
Desert Pea Media's ongoing projects in Bourke have been instrumental in fostering connections within these communities, building the trust and connection required to share story, knowledge, aspirations, and struggles through the medium of music and media. The project's objective is to empower these voices, create opportunity and drive real, meaningful change.
The power of music and media to bridge gaps and amplify unheard voices is immeasurable.
Funded by the NSW Government’s ‘Our Region, Our Voice’ Regional Youth Investment Program.
Special thanks to the B-Town mob, and to the Indigenous Community of Bourke for your trust and friendship over many years. Lub ya.
LYRICS
28 on Top. I’ve got my fam, my tribe, my Mob.
Spinning Yarns, By the River, Birthplace of Nan and Pop.
Many Cultures, Many Song lines and the Stories never Stop.
Smell of Raindrops, on the Red Dirt Feel my Spirit Liftoff.
THIS IS THE PLACE I CALL HOME HOME HOME v
WHERE THE DARLING RIVER FLOWS FLOWS FLOWS
STICK TOGETHER SO WE GROW GROW GROW
THIS IS THE PLACE I CALL HOME HOME HOME
Rather see me fail than succeed down in B-Town
These streets they can’t see how it brings me down. Break Free Now
My spirit tryin to break Free Now.
Back here on the rebound I believe I can achieve now.
It’s called pride I encourage you to be proud.
Let Us Raise the Bar, Stay Focused, stay on Task
Don’t Be Afraid, you’ll be Amazed of how far you’ll go
There Ain’t no limits you can reach the stars
Walk together we can heal these scars, light the way and release the dark.
Don’t separate we stay connected count your blessings
That’s the message that’s the truth raise the bar
So lead the Youth to there deeper roots.

Desert Pea Media is proud to present a new collaboration with the Dunghutti Community in Kempsey NSW.
This production was created in November 2022 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process between Desert Pea Media artists, staff at Melville High School, local Dunghutti Elder - Uncle Bob Smith, community members, cultural leaders and an incredibly talented group of Melville High School Students.
The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people. Focusing on knowledge, education, cultural identity, wellbeing and connection to country.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
The project was funded and co-produced by Melville High School.
The DPM team feel deeply honoured and grateful to learn, share and create with the Kempsey Community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
Special thanks to Sandy Jackson, Andrew Ryder, Uncle Bob Smith and Aunty Jackie Welsh from Melville High School for all of your hard work, trust and support to make this project possible.
Special thanks to all the Dunghutti People, and all of the mob in the region that participated, welcomed us and shared their time, their stories and their country for the creation of this production. We are humbled and grateful for your trust and friendship.

Lyrics
Yaama, we in Trangie yo
Here to break the stereo types
it ain't no black and white
Elders had to fight for our rights
Now I hold my people and my culture tight
Taking all these opportunities my futures bright
Listening to yarns by the fire light,
`Where!` by the fire light
Hey bra, doin sis, goin to the waterhole
One big mob from the young and the old
We sing songs of the Wai wan, Wondibong
In the Nation of Wiradgjuri (Straight in to next para)
We got so much soul
Lets go, thats how we roll
black and white feet we stroll
Time for us to take control – Time for us to take control.
Yeah standing on the shoulder of our ancestors
They gave us so much opportunity and honour
Will you listen so that we can share our knowledge
Lets open hearts and we can all embrace each other
We got our totems
Waagen, Googa, Garru, Budhara, Wangga Wanngga
(Cow goanna magpie possum pugeon)
We got our knowledge
Yindyamarra, Yalbilinya, wudhagarbinya, gandaywarra (Respect, Learn, Listen, grow)
This is our country
Wambuul, billabong, Gin Gin, Dandaloo
(river, waterhole)
Ngurambang, Respect and connection
(Country)
We the Trangie mob our elders reflection
V2
Ive got three lines of ochre on my skin
Distance, boundaries, respect from within
We be doin fire dance
Dillybag, Maliyan, Wagandaa and Dinniwaan
No dog tags no more – wirray
No shame no more - wirray
We're hearing our call - wirray
Respecting our lore - wirray
(same as first flow)
Together as one, this is how we move
Never walking back like the emu or Ru
Wunganja, this is how we do
Who are you – Yeah we welcome you too!
Kicking back being black, super rare artefact
banging like clap stick, we light it black magic
Biame the spirit it guides us- we live it – connected- we did it – connected we living

This film was created during a collaborative project between CSIRO and Aboriginal rangers, organisations and community people from five locations in Queensland and the Northern Territory.
'Unwelcome Strangers' focuses on weed issues faced by Arrarnta people in central Australia. However, the video also shows how each group at the different locations is confronted by invading plants that threaten cultural, environmental, economic, and social values. It shows the commitment and approaches taken by Aboriginal people, especially the critical work of Aboriginal rangers.

Chapter 3 of Colossians
This story is about Yulu, the Kingfisher Man, whose travels brought into being much of the Northern Flinders Ranges and Wilpena Pound or Ilkurra ‘Gathering Place’.
Cultural custodian, Terrence Coulthard says
‘All the basic principles in life come out in Yuramuda ( Dreaming), but if you take part of Yuramuda away by ripping out a story associated with it, you break down the connections people have with it. Then
you break down the rules for living, you break down people’s relationship with the environment, you break down people’s spiritual existence.'
‘When you mess with sites, you’re actually taking away a piece of religion, a piece of culture, a piece of tradition and it’s irreplaceable. These stories are like the Bible. If you burnt all the Bibles in the world then these people would have nothing to build a framework of belief on and
that’s like us. We have to have these mountains and these hills, we have to have the Country; we use it as a tool for teaching people about respect for mother.’

On the Black Chair is a video and web-based project which captures ten stories from community members both elders and young people. Community members were invited to sit in a 'black chair' that had been allocated for storytelling, and share a story of their choice. The community embraced this concept and the chair travelled around Balgo and Mulan to people's houses, out bush and in the Culture Centre.
Three hundred kilometres south west of Darwin lies a small community called Peppimenarti; also known as Peppi.
Peppi is home to a community of artists and the Durrmu Arts Centre. The women of Peppi are renowned for their weaving skills. Their art is set apart from other regions by their use of materials (sand-palm and pandanus), the specific processes (all-natural dyes derived from berries, roots and ash) and ancient techniques (knotless netting and coil).
Weaving is an important cultural and social activity. Apart from strengthening personal and community relationships it also influences other art forms, such as painting. The two art forms are intertwined.
It was recently discovered by Ph.D Candidate Harriet Fesq, that due to the Missionary contact and influence in the Daly River area in the 1940’s, the local weaving technique of 'twining with bush vine' had been lost to this community of Peppimenarti.
With the support of the Durrmu Arts Centre, a group of Peppimenarti women artists, including Regina Wilson, traveled the 900KM to Yilan to attend a weaving workshop held by artist and friend Lily Roy. Lily Roy teaches the women this particular skill of weaving so that it can be taken back to artists and weavers in Peppimenarti.
The documentary details the story of how this lost art and important part of the Ngan’gikurrungurr culture was retrieved and returned.
This documentary also shows that the ancient wisdom of weaving is as much about the women connecting with each other, as it is about the beauty and practicality of the woven object.

The concept came after the completion of the large ghostnet sculptures of Dauma & Garom commissioned by the Australian Museum, Sydney. The interest generated during this work naturally progressed to the idea of animating the story. Dauma & Garom is the first animated story produced on Darnley Island. This movie not only demonstrates the successful collaboration between the school, art centre and museum to document a contemporary local story, but also provided valuable skills development for art centre media personnel.

Between 1905 and 1972 up to 75 per cent of money earned by Aboriginal people was forcibly withheld by the state. The money was placed into trust accounts but in most cases disappeared. For many years Aboriginal people have been calling for the return of their money. There has been a senate inquiry and a state inquiry into the matter. In 2012 the WA Government agreed to pay some claimants $2000 to settle the issue. Many people were not eligible to collect the funds despite having worked for many years without receiving wages. This short six-minute documentary looks at the issue and the ongoing fight for compensation.
This DVD talks to people living and working in remote communities about their experiences with dogs. It is intended as a guide to living safely with dogs.

Emotional literacy animations in Pitjantjatjara and Ngaanyatjarra. Developed by and for Anangu living in the central desert region to keep language strong - in particular the language for talking about mental health.
Created as part of an ongoing partnership between Desert Pea Media and Leader In Development @ The Apollo House in Dubbo, NSW.
This project was written, recorded and filmed in four days by Desert Pea Media artists, and co-written/ directed/ performed by students from Mian School in Dubbo, which runs alternative education programs for disengaged young people. They're the Last Chance Crew.
Attendance rates for Indigenous young people in Central West NSW are alarmingly lower than non-Indigenous students, and this program sought to create dialogue around these issues.
What prevents Indigenous young people engaging at school? Where does it come from? What does it mean for their future? How can it change? Will it change? Whose choice is it? What are YOU gunna do?
This hip hop track is an outcome from a project called 'Song Nation' -- A collaboration between Toby Finlayson and Matthew Priestley from Desert Pea Media, The Smugglers Of Light Foundation, Vibe Australia and APRA/ AMCOS.
Created as part of a mentoring process with young people from St Teresa's College, Abergowrie North QLD, the song was written as part of a unique process with Desert Pea Media and yr 12 students.
Song Nation culminated at The Vibe Festival in Townsville, where the young people were invited to screen their clips and perform in front of over 2,000 people.
WML and Desert Pea Media worked with 14 students in June this year to participate in a lyrical workshop to develop a positive message of change around health issues affecting their local community.
The WML Coonamble Family Wellbeing Project worked with Desert Pea Media and the selected students to ensure their ideas and views were incorporated into the music lyrics. Once the lyrics were established, the crew and students spent a week filming in different locations around Coonamble.

The kids of Baniyala Garrangali School on the Laynhapuy Homelands situated on East Arnhem Land, Northern Territory, Australia, worked with the Musomagic team to produce this song called Dolphin V Shark. The theme was to highlight the problem of bullying in school and encourage kids to think about the impact bullying can have at school.
This production was a collaboration between Laynhapuy Homeland Aboriginal Corporation and Yirrkala Homeland School. Filmed at the School Swimming Carnival in Nhulunbuy NT, Yolngu students from 5 School Campuses, situated on the Laynhapuy Homelands of East Arnhem Land, NT, Australia, appear in the film clip. The song was composed and recorded at GanGan Community.
Words are sung in English and Yolgnu Matha.
This video was produced at the request of Djarrayang Wunungmurra from Wandawuy Homeland, which is situated on the Laynhapuy Homelands of East Arnhem Land in Northern Territory, Australia.
Djarrayang realised he had been scammed after money went missing from his bank account. He wants to tell his story to all Yolngu and aboriginal people everywhere, to stop others losing money to dishonest people.
Laynhapuy Homeland Aboriginal Money Management program is one of many Money Management programs operating in Remote Australia, and supported Djarrayang to tell his story.
Djarrayang talks in his native language of Yolngu Matha.
Djarriyang has requested that this video be shared everywhere.

A short educational film on the shale gas rush which has seen over 90% of the Northern Territory covered by applications or approvals for fracking and petroleum exploration.
Fracking risks contamination of ground and surface water through well failure, methane emissions and chemical spills and leaks as well as human health impacts from water and air pollution. Despite this, the NT government continues to hand out licences to unconventional gas companies to explore for shale gas even in sensitive water catchment areas, on prime pastoral and agricultural properties, in National parks and reserves, important cultural places and around towns and community living areas.
The Northern Territory's remote and rural communities whose livelihoods and very survival relies on clean water and healthy country speak out about their concerns over fracking and take action to show the NT Government and gas companies that their land, water and futures are not for sale or sacrifice.

A song about the Indigenous stock men who work to muster cattle and enjoy that kind of life.
Written, recorded and filmed in 5 days as part of an ongoing mentoring project with Desert Pea Media, The Smugglers of Light Foundation, APRA, UN Ltd, and most importantly - Uncle Alfred Smallwood's Mentoring Group in Townsville QLD.
Uncle Alfred's Mentoring Group is a volunteer service for young adults caught up in the justice system, and who are trying to re-engage with community, culture and country - breaking the cycle of sentencing.
There is a focus on cultural mentoring, taking responsibility for yourself, your country and your family. This song and music video is the second project in two years with Uncle Alfred's Group, and was created as a collaboration with a local Indigenous Rangers Group.
The story is about the conservation and protection of country - specifically the sea turtle. These ancient creatures were traditionally a local food source. Due to unsustainable commercial fishing they are now endangered, and Uncle Alfred is teaching his group how to care for them and protect them for the future.
We would like to pay our respect to the people of the Bindal & Wulgurukaba, traditional owners of the country upon which this song was made.

This production was written, recorded and filmed over 5 days in March 2015 in the community of Eden - on the South Coast of NSW (Yuin and Monaro country) as part of a Desert Pea Media (DPM) project.
The project came about through a partnership between DPM, The Smugglers of Light Foundation, UN Ltd, APRA and Eden Marine High School.
The fantastic staff at Eden Marine High School made contact with local elder, storyteller and cultural leader - Ozzie Cruse. Ozzie became a collaborator, and spent time teaching our participants about language, culture and heritage.
This information was then directed into a narrative structure by local young people and Desert Pea Media staff. With the musical direction of DPM guru Joel 'Roc West' Westlake and the rest of the creative team, we then turned the narrative into this awesome song.
So this story is past, present, and future. Holding the morals/ideals and lessons that come from culture and heritage, allowing those lessons to help us navigate the struggles of today, and using the inherent strength in country and community to create a positive, respectful and inclusive future for all Australians.
Part of an ongoing mentoring program - a partnership between Desert Pea Media, Smugglers of Light Foundation, UN Ltd, Tagai State College and APRA. 'Two Worlds' is long - awaited second production from Tagai Buway, who also featured on DPM's debut album 'Song Nation Volume 1'.
The crew from Thursday Island are also part of the DPM All-Stars - a hand picked group of Indigenous young people that came to Sydney to write and record a song about the UN Declaration of Human Rights for Indigenous People in partnership with UNICEF and performed at the 2014 Yabun Festival on Australia Day.
This song was written collaboratively with staff from Tagai State College on Thursday Island, local young people and elders, Toby Finlayson, Aunty Gail Mabo and Joel 'Roc West' Westlake from Desert Pea Media.
The story was developed around the concept of living in two worlds - traditional and contemporary. The participants identified the importance of pride, spirit and strength that comes from traditional islander culture, and the vitality of life on the islands. It is only through knowledge and understanding that young TSI people can survive in this rapidly changing contemporary culture.
And survive they will. As sure as the sun will rise.
This project was written, recorded and filmed in four days by Desert Pea Media artists, and co-written/ directed/ performed by students from Mian School in Dubbo, which runs alternative education programs for disengaged young people. They're the Last Chance Crew.
Attendance rates for Indigenous young people in Central West NSW are alarmingly lower than non-Indigenous students, and this program sought to create dialogue around these issues.
What prevents Indigenous young people engaging at school? Where does it come from? What does it mean for their future? How can it change? Will it change? Whose choice is it? What are YOU gunna do?

The Official Video for 'Ngirramini' (Culture) written, recorded and filmed with the students at Tiwi College during the Red Dust Role Models Healthy Living Program (October 26th - 30th 2015).
The song is about having dreams and goals. Sometimes it takes hard work to reach those goals.
It's about being persistent and disciplined and keeping on going even when things get tough.
The song tells us that when times are tough, you can draw on the strength of your culture. It also reminds us that when things are going well and you feel that your goals are in reach, not to get to far ahead of yourself and remember who you are .... and don't forget your culture!
Big thanks to Tiwi staff Greg (from the great Tiwi band B2M) and Tippa (trading his footy for guitar!)

The lead single and title track from Gawurra's debut album 'Ratja Yaliyali' (meaning 'Vine of Love').
Gawurra [pronounced gow-rra] is an extraordinary singer and engaging performer hailing from East Arnhem Land. A contemporary of Gurrumul, he has a deeply resonant voice and musical sensitivity. His debut single Ratja Yaliyali [to be released from a forthcoming album of the same name]; won the 2015 NT Song of the Year Award in the Pop category.
Broadwing an award winning young producer from the NT has given the song [and forthcoming album] an unexpected edge while soulfully blending Gawurra’s traditional & contemporary sound. The instrumentation is built around a resonant vocal, atmospheric guitar, simple drums and a string section that slowly swells throughout the song.
A beautiful melody, and a well-known Yolngu Songline, Ratja Yaliyali [pronounced Rart-ja yarl-i yarl-i] translates to Vine of Love; a thread of love that keeps everything connected. When Yolngu people hear it they feel the spirit in their hearts. If they have a problem or feel gloomy, they listen to Ratja Yaliyali as it touches them and builds their spirit making them stronger and brighter.

'Set the Tone' is about self-love and respect. It is about knowing one’s self and one’s boundaries. As a Southern Arrernte / Mirning woman Catherine has experienced abuse, racism, sexism, double standards and set-backs, but these experiences don't define who she is, Catherine sets her own tone. Set the Tone presents in a sensual style, symbolising the story telling of a self-respecting woman.
Set The Tone was released on 17 June and features on her self-titled EP released 15 July 2016.

Part of a series of seven short films incorporating illustration and animation about some of the artists from Ampilatwatja. Developed by Lara Damiani. Produced by Caroline Hunter and Lara Damiani
The Artists of Ampilatwatja community was established in 1999 near Alice Springs in the Northern Territory. The work produced by the artists is recognisably distinct from other Aboriginal artistic communities, due to the application of fine dots and the often bright and child-like figurative depiction of the land.
Most of the artists paint Arreth, which translates to ‘strong bush medicine’, demonstrating a deep connection to country. A veritable source of life, the land has provided and sustained Alyawarr people for generations, as every plant and animal has a vital role to play within the ecological system. The paintings pay homage to the significance and use of traditional bush medicine, allowing an insight into their community. Yet underneath the iridescent surfaces, there is an underlying sense that there is more to these landscapes than meets the eye. In keeping with the religious laws, the artists reveal only a small amount of knowledge to the uninitiated. The esoteric information that is held sacred to these artists and their people is concealed from the public and layered underneath the common visual narrative, masked by the delicate layered dots of the painting. The many levels of interpretation permit artists to present their art to an often culturally untutored public without compromising its religious nature. Artists talk of two broad levels of interpretation, the “inside” stories which are restricted to those of the appropriate ritual standing, and the “outside” stories which are open to all.

The work produced by the artists is recognisably distinct from other Aboriginal artistic communities, due to the application of fine dots and the often bright and child-like figurative depiction of the land.
Most of the artists paint Arreth, which translates to ‘strong bush medicine’, demonstrating a deep connection to country. A veritable source of life, the land has provided and sustained Alyawarr people for generations, as every plant and animal has a vital role to play within the ecological system. The paintings pay homage to the significance and use of traditional bush medicine, allowing an insight into their community. Yet underneath the iridescent surfaces, there is an underlying sense that there is more to these landscapes than meets the eye. In keeping with the religious laws, the artists reveal only a small amount of knowledge to the uninitiated. The esoteric information that is held sacred to these artists and their people is concealed from the public and layered underneath the common visual narrative, masked by the delicate layered dots of the painting. The many levels of interpretation permit artists to present their art to an often culturally untutored public without compromising its religious nature. Artists talk of two broad levels of interpretation, the “inside” stories which are restricted to those of the appropriate ritual standing, and the “outside” stories which are open to all.

Cyclists from Tourxoz rolled into Roebourne this week to meet with locals and talk about mental health.
They were keen to kick the footy with the locals after hearing about the successful
WAFC - Pilbara Regional Football called 'Nightfields' that engages the youth every Friday night at the school oval.
Former AFL legend, Adam Goodes was amongst the throng of bike riders and told Ngaarda Media that the 'Black Dog' has been an issue for him.
"I've definitely been affected by the Black Dog, earlier in my playing career when I was doing a diploma in indigenous studies. I got very angry and upset about the things that had happened," he said. "A big part of me dealing with my anger is being part of the positive process which we are doing and empowering our people."
Ngarluma leader, Josie Samson thanked the cyclists for coming to Roebourne and saw their arrival and message as a positive reaction to the recent headlines in the media that spoke about sexual abuse charges in the Pilbara. " All these accusations that have been made about Roebourne keeps people away and gives people the wrong message," she said.
"I've lived here, we have our ups and downs like everybody else, but here we are striving as white and black ... working to build this community up.
Empowered Communities is a national reform initiative created by Aboriginal people, for Aboriginal people. In central Australia's Ngaanyatjarra, Pitjantjatjara and Yankunytjatjara (NPY) Lands a collaboration of strong Aboriginal organisations are working together with families, communities, service providers and Government to ensure a coordinated approach to addressing locally identified needs and priorities. This ground-up approach ensures that Aboriginal people have the authority and responsibility for leading the decision-making about the programs and services delivered in their communities.

Under Thamarrurr, all land owning groups have traditional rights and responsibilities over their land. Some families ancestral homelands are hundreds of kilometres away and it can be difficult for them to pass knowledge on to the next generation. Having a dedicated space in the centre of Wadeye will give all clan groups sovereignty of their own unique cultures, a place to celebrate who they are and where they come from. It would strengthen connection to culture, increase pride and empowerment across generations while giving peace of mind to the old people.
This video has been locally produced by TDC's Media Mob (WadeyeTV) to raise awareness of the Thamarrurrr Peoples cultural needs

Here is a snapshot with all the things that Desert Harmony includes in:
This school holiday program was created and presented by Barkly Regional Arts and funded by Territory Families. 'Rock with the Doc' was a 3 week music program where young people worked with 3 local musicians and built their own guitars. The young people also got to work with world renowned stencil artist HAHA (Regan Tamanui) to create stencils and spray paint their very own design onto the guitars.
Once the guitars were built they began some basic music lessons to learn how to play their guitar. They learnt some basic chords which they then strung together and performed for the community at the end of the program
This program continues in the April school holidays. The focus of the week will be on creating and practicing a song they can perform at the big youth event of the years 'Barkly Beats' (April 21st).

This song was written and produced by Monkey Marc with members of the Barkly Desert Culture program. The performers in the video were all participants in the program that for three years delivered a successful youth diversion program in the greater Barkly region. The performers featured are collectively known as Desert Hip Hop and individually known as the E town Boyz, The Hill Boyz and The Desert Sevenz. The groups undertook a tour of the Barkly communities and this video includes footage from that tour as well as shots from the school program delivered in that region by Uncle Jimmy Thumbs Up ! in May/June 2017. This program was made possible with the help of the Barkly Regional Council and the University of Melbourne.
The Thumbs Up! team recently spent a few weeks in the Barkly Region delivering the Music 4 Life program. Here is Thumbs Up! facilitator Terrence Gore, jamming with some local fellas at the Arlparra (Utopia) Sport and Rec Centre in December 2017.

UPK, Uwankara Palyanku Kanyitjaku (everybody creating and holding the future) is a strategy to achieve well-being through positive, shared vision of the future and thoughtful action by everybody to achieve this vision.

The first UPK album was recorded at Mutitjulu in 1989 establishing a benchmark in popularity and quality. It was not until 2002 that UPK2 was recorded at Tilun Tilun to be followed by UPK#3 at Black Hill – Kunma Piti and UPK#4 at Ulkiya. The quality of these productions is outstanding; UPK music remains the most popular music on the lands today.

Lyric Video for Track 4 of UPK#6.
A song by Katrina Connelly. Written in jail. Music by Darcy Davis.
I am here, staying here but thinking I’m really from another place. My family calls to me, calls me to my real home.
Sitting, yearning, pining for my home. My country is way over there; Pipalyatjara, Irruntju, Kalka on the Three Way Border (SA,WA,NT).
My country.
UPK stands for Uwankara Palyanku Kanyintjaku; a Pitjantjatjara expression meaning ‘everybody building and caring for the future’.
Using music is an agent of change, the songwriters involved take aim the root causes of hurt they see around them, like petrol sniffing, alcohol and drug addiction, waste management, care-for-country, hunting, and homesickness.
The content of UPK songs is not about blame or victimhood but a musical effort to address the factors that contribute to, or impact on, good living.
Creating awareness is the intention of UPK music because it is the key precedent to positive action.
UPK6 was recorded at West Bore in the APY Lands using an open-air studio with a hessian fence for wind-break, used carpet to keep the dirt down, and digital recording gear housed in the front room of an old outstation home.

Why do you ignore what I am saying to you?
You better listen to what we’re all saying.
Hey wati, I’m telling you this. Why do you ignore me?
This is about domestic violence. The perpetrator is being admonished.

One woman standing alone thinking. She is thinking of her daughter long and hard, to see her and tell her

Life can be difficult in remote, rural towns, with kids looking for some kind of direction. Life can also be beautiful, with winding rivers and unparalleled nature. Payten Thorne is honest about her experiences and struggles navigating this world, and gives us insight into the way that she keeps her head above water when life becomes too overwhelming. With a pen or a camera in hand, Payten captures the magic of her town, and uses this constructive habit to channel those feelings into creation. Wise beyond her years, Payten can teach us a lot about how to stay positive and get to where you need to go.

When you sit down for a yarn with Uncle Les Coe, you walk away with deepest sense of pride in who you are spiritually and culturally. There is a raw power in his words, and his way of sharing them with you, that plants your feet firmly on the ground. So much was taken away from the Original Nations people by Europeans, and Uncle Les knows how helpful it can be for young Aboriginal people to understand - that their ancestors fought hard to prevent this. Far too many Aboriginal men are incarcerated, and at the root of this issue is bad mental health caused by the deep loss of culture. In Les’ heart he knows it’s time to reconnect with those roots and grow, proud and strong, so that the real fight can begin.
Part of the 'Break It Down: Community Conversations Around Mental Health' project 2017/2018. (DPM/PHN WNSW)
It takes a long time to build trust between a patient and a psychologist, and no one knows that more than clinician, Jenny Molyneux. Through her work providing mental health counselling to four remote NSW communities, Jen can see that there needs to be dedicated support staff in each town, to give that necessary time to build relationships. The Aboriginal youth suicide rate is the highest in the world and that has to change. Jen knows firsthand that before you start helping someone with their mental health, they want to know you, and that’s why she believes in meeting people on their turf and being active with them. There’s a long way to go, but Jen’s insight can help us get there.

Break It Down: Community Conversations Around Mental Health.
The Break it Down project is best described as a series of connected and meaningful conversations, creative workshops and content development that addresses local issues, celebrates culture identity and encourages openness about mental health. Two workshops involve writing and producing a song and music video and producing a short film that tells the story of local people and place.
“We knew that a different approach was needed to address mental health in Indigenous communities. Finding a culturally safe way to have these conversations with young people is so important and Desert Pea Media’s unique program has enabled this,” said Andrew Harvey, CEO Western NSW Primary Health Network.
Break it Down workshops follow a service model developed by WNSW PHN and delivered by Desert Pea Media to acknowledge both the realities of a social situation and the possibilities for change. Conversations explore the real - what is happening in the community; the ideal - what would the community look like in a perfect world; and finally the bridge - how do we get from where we are now to where we want to be? Each conversation also produces a resource that can be used as an ongoing support tool for participants including contact and service information.
The project began in October 2017 with workshops being held in in Cowra, Condobolin, Bathurst, Orange, Walgett and Wellington until April 2018. Beyond the workshops, Desert Pea Media’s crew craft these stories into lyrical masterpieces.
The project benefits many beyond the workshop participants. The stories, songs and videos present positive images of local culture, pride and identity that are shared with family and members of the community. You can’t help but be moved by the stories and the courage it has taken to share them.
“Desert Pea Media came to Condobolin to engage our youth in a discussion around mental health. They began by acknowledging Wiradjuri country and the elders who were present. Each person introduced themselves and everybody was encouraged to share as much as they wanted. The children were able to voice their ideas in a welcoming and safe environment. This brought about the words that were used in the lyrics of their song. Next it was time for recording and shooting the video. This bought loads of energy and creativity. Children from primary school to high school and even the adults present learnt about mental health, the brain and general wellbeing… This initiative definitely added to our community and those involved have been walking around town with their heads held high...” Marion Wighton-Packham, Condobolin

As a platform for Queensland’s Indigenous arts and culture, CIAF not only presents a celebration and ethical marketplace for collectors, but also helps educate and inform visitors about the unique differences in art practice.
Queensland’s Indigenous art is quite distinct from that found in other regions of Australia – inspired by and largely reflective of Queensland’s reef and rainforest environment.

Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
The DPM team feels deeply honoured to share, create and build connection with this incredible, resilient group of young people. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved. These are friendships and experiences that are deeply valued and respected.
This project featured the musical direction and production of music producer Josh Nicholas (aka Hazy). We thank you brother for your artistic vision and awesome work.
Special thanks to Nikkola Savuro, Kath Anderson and ***** for your hard work in making this project possible. Also to Aunty Gail Mabo and Uncle Alfred Smallwood for your ongoing support.

Ena Oscar Majapula Nanaku speaks about her painting Ena’s Ngapuju [Nanna] carrying toilet waste for kartiya at Jinparrak, 2015, synthetic polymer paint on canvas.
“This painting is about is my nanna, Judy Kutuwumpu, who used to carry a yoke and buckets to get toilet waste from the white station people. One bucket was for the soapy water and the other for dirty water. She used to take it right around, far from the main building to the jackaroos’ quarters and the manager’s house, and then to the top and bottom quarters. She used to clean out the toilets and chuck it far away and wash the toilets, over and over again. I was happy doing this painting, but it made me feel sorry for the hard work they did for kartiya.”

Australia's much loved rising all-female hip-hop act OETHA are thrilled to release an official video for CRUISIN; their gutsy no-nonsense shout-out to the sistahood about dropping back, chilling out, forget-the-men and take a Cruise into the sunset as fearless females.
The video is fun, colourful and driven by some dynamic performances. Shot on both digital and on 16mill film, the video has a classic warm 90’s throwback feel to it. Which perfectly complements the soulful sound of the song.
Crusin is an ideal follow up to Sista Girl. It’s an uplifting soulful song, layered with a smooth baseline and the sounds of luscious Rhode keys. Its soulful, jazzy vibe inspires some crew members to rhyme with poetic flows, while others still deliver their rhymes with the power of a strong feminine energy. Crusin is a female anthem.
Christobel Swan tells a story of the first Pertame on-country school campPertame Mperrka Song.
Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce a new collaboration with the Torres Strait Island community of Thursday Island, North QLD.
This production, along with two short films were created over 14 days in September 2019 - an outcome of of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local Indigenous young people, community members, Elders, and local health & community services.
The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people in 5 communities around FNQ (Kuranda, Bowen, Palm Island, Thursday Island & Lockhart River). The project is called 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Well-being' - funded by North Queensland Primary Health Network.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
Desert Pea Media has been working with the community of Thursday Island for almost a decade, and the opportunity to reconnect with old friends and create new connections is invaluable to us. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
'Time Wait For No-One' is a bouncy, tropical, reggae/dub infused ballad for the people of the Torres Straits. Written on-location in Thursday Island and inspired by a quote from Aunty Ellen Ronson, referring to the importance of maintaining and passing down language and culture in an ever-changing contemporary society.
'Time Wait For No-One was produced by Yiddinji music producer Coedie McCarthy aka ‘Blackfulla Beats’. We thank you brother for your artistic vision and awesome work.
Special thanks to Aunty Ellen Ronson, Jodi and the team from My Pathways, Diat Alferink from TSIMA, Lisa Lui and the Meriam Dance Group and Paula Arnol, Alex Blanco and staff from Torres Health.

LYRICS
Verse 1
Munbara Bwgcolman burra (land) Gubbal the carpet python //
Head is magnetic // Body is Palm island//
Fine line between captain and crook//
Join the crew, take a tour round the history book//
Since my great grandfather was brought here in chains//
1914, slavery with no wage//
Big shame - 1918 became a mission//
PI became a prison - punishment by definition//
Nuh ya can’t look forward if ya can’t look back//
Gotta know the difference between lies and fact//
The truth is beautiful, it’s back and it’s black//
Like the PI boys now we’re ready to react//
The Act - rewind to 1939 - we think about home//
And family left behind as we rhyme//
My words flow west across the sea-line//
Connect to ancestors and the lessons of the dreamtime//
Hook x 2
(Scratches) Only time will tell //
We no longer living under the bell //
(Scratches) maybe change gonna come//
Like the morning sun the Bwgcolman rise as one//
Verse 2
2004 they were kicking down the door //
Marshall squad held pregnant women to the floor//
Elders, kids and all, what for? //
Telling lies in the court and the coroners report//
It’s been a hundred years of trauma and fear //
But the truth is the Bwgcolman warriors are still here //
Kicking back with another track, get it clear //
Speak out it’ll make the pain disappear //
We love this island we sick of the silence //
We can’t change history with crime and violence //
We love this island - you can try to divide us //
Can’t seperate 40 plus tribes united //
Respect goes out to uncle Lex and the clan //
The Bwgcolman people and the Doomadgee fam //
The Tall Man got nothing on Munburra land //
Eeya lah the Palm Island People taking a stand //
Hook x 2
(Scratches) Only time will tell//
We no longer living under the bell//
(Scratches) maybe change gonna come//
Like the morning sun the Bwgcolman rise as one //

Northern Tanami Indigenous Protected Area (IPA) committee members directed the CLC to re-imagine their IPA Plan of Management, an English-heavy guide book for looking after the IPA. The brief was to create a lush digital resource using spoken Warlpiri that could be accessed both online and offline to mirror the content of the management plan and be navigated through voice commands. The CLC’s hope is that the IPA digital storybooks will help all Warlpiri – from elders to school children – to better understand and support the work to keep country healthy and culture strong. The CLC has made digital storybooks for both the Southern Tanami and the Northern Tanami IPAs. See www.ngurra.org and www.walyalku.org.au

Patsy Cameron shares the importance of Indigenous place names and dual naming.
"Sharing Indigenous place names honours the ancestors and acknowledges the beautiful language, and the significant part of language that tells the story of country. However we need to do it together so we can all feel confident and we all feel a part of it".

Bianca Monaghan and Dean Loadsman were born into the first generation of Wahlabul people to grow up with the freedom to practice their traditional language and culture, without being discouraged or punished.
They have a vision to give the next generation the gift of fluency in their mother tongue.
However, to do that, they first have to overcome a few major challenges. Neither Ms Monaghan or Mr Loadsman are fluent speakers of their mother tongue.
Traditionally it is not a written language, which means there are no textbooks.
And history is against them.
The colonial invasion in the early 1800s had a huge impact on the loss of language and culture for the Aboriginal clans of Australia's east coast.
Many communities were rounded up into missions with non-Indigenous managers. The goal was assimilation with white Australia.
The practice of language and culture was often prohibited and could be punished with imprisonment, but surprisingly some Aboriginal languages are not as dead as we are often led to believe.
Despite the harsh treatment in the missions, there are communities where people defied authorities and kept their language alive.
Some of those communities are in the Baryulgil, Tabulam and Woodonbong areas, remote regions of the NSW North Coast. These are the homelands of the Wahlabul and Gidhabul clans.
Language was still in regular use in the 1960s and even today, there are a few elders who are fluent speakers.
From the late 1800s through to the late 1900s, a number of linguists produced dictionaries recording some of the vocabulary of local dialects which they grouped under a region name of Bundjalung.
Ms Monaghan and Mr Loadsman are now studying these dictionaries and seeking out their elders, to sit at their feet and learn as much as they can.
Their vision is to become fluent and teach the next generation to be proud to practice their culture and speak their language.
A big thanks to the children of Baryulgil Public School who let us document their weekly lesson with Balun Budjarahm Cultural Experience.

It’s story time at the Cape York Aboriginal Australian Academy school in Hopevale and Aunty Irene Hammett is armed with her Guugu Yimidhirr language books.
She wrote them based on her and her family’s childhoods. They tell tales of adventures on country - through the bush, and at the beach.
The class gathers on the mat in front of Aunty Irene and listen intently.
Irene is a long-time teacher and reader at this Hopevale school and is a passionate advocate for the speaking of her mother tongue.
“Language is something that no one else can take away from you,” she says. “It’s in your heart and in your mind.”

Wadawurrung country stretches from the mountains to the sea. It includes hills, rivers and grassy plains, creeks and coasts and includes modern towns such as Werribee, Geelong and Ballarat in Victoria.
Since colonisation, white fellas have tried to write down our Wadawurrung language, even though there are no equivalent sounds in English.
We had no written language so early settlers wrote down what they heard using their own language trying to reproduce the sounds.
In this series of short films we correct some of the language spelling of the places we all know and explain the meaning behind our stories.
Language needs a place to live, and this is a chance for us to tell our stories and our language.
Our language is sleeping, but will soon reawaken.
This video is set at Bongerimennin, now known as Flagstaff Hill lookout in Linton. It tells an important story about how the land was created by two strong warriors from our dreaming who can still be found in the landscape today.

A few people speak the Indigenous Djabuguy language fluently. Michael Quinn, an Englishman, is one of them.
It was 1986 when he arrived in the Far North Queensland town of Kuranda with his young family. Before this he had been living in Sydney where he studied a four year Anthropology degree at the University of Sydney, while teaching English.
He had never met an Aboriginal bama (person) but wanted to study the mythology of the land he was going to build a house on. When he approached Lalfie Thompson, the last initiated man of the Djabuguy tribe, to ask permission to do this he told him, ""not until you learn our language.""
So began Michael's 28 year journey of learning and teaching the Djabuguy language. In this time he has had the help of linguists who had studied the language in the past - Ken Hale, Bob Dixon, Helena Cassells and Elizabeth Patz - and elders like Nyuwarri Queen of the Djabuganydji, Wurrmbul Gilpin Banning and Warren Brim.
Elder, Rhonda Brim, Rhonda Duffin and Chairman of the Djabuguy Tribal Aboriginal Corporation, Gerald Hobbler, have also been some of his main supporters.
When Michael arrived there were still a handful of elders who spoke Djabuguy. It was Wanyarra, Roy Banning, who is the last person Michael knows to have grown up speaking Djabuguy as his first language, who was his main language teacher. Michael says he couldn't have got very far without Roy. For many years they worked together in local schools and at the Tjapukai Theatre in Kuranda and Tjapukai Aboriginal Theme Park outside Cairns.
One of the reasons the Djabuguy language has come so close to extinction is the movement of many Djabuguy children to the Mona Mona Adventist Church Mission between 1913 and 1963 – under Aboriginal protection policies of the day.
“The government were telling us what we can and can’t do,” says Gerald Hobbler, who spent some of his childhood on the mission. “We always thought we were under the act.”
The rules were strict and English was the only language tolerated. Mother tongue was no longer spoken.
Today, one Indigenous language disappears every two weeks. Estimates suggest 100 years from now there will possibly be no indigenous languages left on the planet.
Nearly thirty years after first approaching Lalfie Thompson, Michael is seen as a custodian of the language – a language that once covered an area from the coast in Cairns to the highlands, back to Mareeba and up to Port Douglas.
He is now a teacher of the language he has dedicated much of his life to learning and spends two afternoons a week at Kuranda District State College teaching Djabuguy to local children.
What does Michael hopes comes from all this? That people will be able to “Buwal bugan ngirrma bulmba-barra – speak the language of the country”.
"I am grateful to the Bama, the people of this place, who have shown me friendship and encouraged my work," says Michael.

My name is Anne Gela and I am a fluent big thap kriol / yumpla tok language speaker born on Thursday Island. I am a Mualgal woman from St Paul community of Moa Island which is situated in the inner-west Torres Strait group of islands.
I believe that there are two types of Torres Strait Islander Yumpla Tok speakers:
a. The broken English speaker, who speaks purely broken English
b. The Bigthap speaker, who uses traditional Torres Strait language words in their Yumpla tok speech.
I am a facilitator who conducts the Torres Strait Islander Indigenous Language programs for Saima Torres Strait Islander Corporation and I also provide assistance to language speakers in the interpretation of the language dialect words into English.
My vision is to see that all the dialects of the Torres Strait Islander languages of Kala Lagau Ya, Meriam Mir, Kala Kawaw Ya, Kawalgal and Kulkagaw, and also the west and east Torres Strait Kroil dialects, are revived and preserved as they are living language dialects that have been passed down from one generation to another by word of mouth.
That's all the more reason they should be documented, as they are part of our history.

A Yorta Yorta elder films an ABC Open Video Postcard on a smartphone and blogs about her ancestral language.
My grandmother was one of the last Yorta Yorta speakers. She taught Yorta Yorta language at Worowa College in Healesville, Victoria. At some stage I undertook the research for the Yorta Yorta Language Heritage Book (dictionary).
My mother and my children speak some of the language. Some years after the dictionary was published there was a demand to start language classes for community members to revive the language. We did a pilot study and applied for funding to do a 12 month project, funded by the Office of the Arts. This process not only invited me to learn my language but it also developed an interest in the intensity of cultural development attached to language renewal. Unless you have someone to talk to in your language, the language will stagnate, so teaching other people to speak Yorta Yorta has had numerous benefits.
Over the years many models of teaching have been tried and failed or just stopped, but this language development has been built to be sustainable, through the process of involving community according to their availability. We constructed a model that is based on small groups of five people per one hour session.
Throughout this time we have had a number of people do the language sessions.
One participant has published a Yorta Yorta children’s book. The local library currently has an Indigenous writing awards with an Indigenous language section in it for participants to enter language articles.
We are currently working on expressing language through audio visual media and are planning to have an exhibition in September of this year. The revival of language has been very instrumental in developing the confidence and self-esteem of the Aboriginal community in this area. There is also a very keen interest from the mainstream sector in Indigenous language development.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce a new collaboration with the Goodjenburra community in Fingal Head, on the North Coast of NSW.
This production, along with a song & music video (Booningbah Goories - 'My Connection' was created over 14 days in January 2020 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local Goodjenurra young people, community members, Elders, and local services.
The overall purpose of this particular project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people in 8 communities around the North Coast. The project is called 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Well-being' - funded by North Coast Primary Health Network.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities ?
The connections created during this project with the community and local young people are friendships that the DPM team highly value and respect. We as a team feel deeply honored to learn, share and create with the Fingal Head families and wider community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
'Ngimbalien' was directed by Sydney-based filmmaker and DPM team member Genevieve Kaiser. We thank you sis for your artistic vision and awesome work.
Special thanks to Marni Tuala, Kyle and Jarulah Slabb and all the Fingal Mob for all of your incredible support.
We are deeply honored to be invited to learn, share and create with you and your family. We honor the ancestors and the stories that reside in this country, and we do our best to tread lightly, to be respectful and to contribute wherever possible. Thanks for the lessons :)

Featuring: Ltyentye Apurte – Santa Teresa Community
Incite partnered with Atenhenge Atherre Aboriginal (AA) Corporation to collaborate with young people living in Ltyentye Apurte (Santa Teresa) to create a mural installation and a music video. The community arts project supported the expression of thoughts and feelings and communicates a strong message about valuing the importance of strong family relationships, with care and respect for culture as a part of their lives now and the future.
Earlier this year Incite Arts hosted a creative writing workshop program with 11 participants from a number of services coming together at the Alice Springs Residency for 5 days of creative fun with visiting poet Katie Keys.
Delving into the world of language and communication participants explored the notion of ‘self-portrait’ and how to express ideas through the art of poetry. There was even a spontaneous song-writing session!
Through a combination of group-writing exercises, poetry worksheets, collage and recording of spoken responses, participants from Life Without Barriers, Acacia Hill School and Centralian Middle School and casa Inc created 77 poems under the title: ‘SELFIES’!
The writing and photographs taken by participants were then turned into memes, creating an exciting new way for individual to express themselves and their perceptions about themselves and of each other.
This video was created in Yuendumu, December 2013 as part of the Red Sand Culture (RSC) Music Program. RSC participants engage in creating and recording their own songs, along with exploring other multimedia creative outlives, like stop motion story telling.
Looking for alternative ways to engage young people, this project explored art and story telling in the form of a stop motion animation. It was great to get some of the younger ones participating in drawing and acting out the characters in the story.

Carbiene McDonald was born in Papunya in 1961, son of Snowy McDonald and as a young man, he travelled back to his father’s homelands and inherited his Tjukurrpa (Dreaming). Carbiene lives at Black Water Outstation, just outside of Papunya Community. Having only taken up painting later in life in 2018, his passion for paint coupled with his extreme dedication and enthusiasm has led him to quickly make a name for himself. Cabiene’s work embodies quality of innovation within tradition, and his practice of filling the canvas with coloured squares of loose acrylic paint creates work of immense depth and sophistication. Winner of the prestigious Hadley’s Art Prize (2019), finalist in the Vincent Lingiari Art Award (2019) his work is held in Art Gallery of NSW Collection, Charles Darwin University Collection and in private collections in Australia. Hear from the artist himself in his short film as he explains how his painting career brings him happiness and the pride he feels for all the young men in Papunya who paint alongside him at Papunya Tjupi Arts.
Carbiene’s work will be exhibited at RAFT artspace, Alice Springs, as part of his eagerly anticipated second solo show from the 12nd of September 2020. This short film coincides with his exhibition and Desert Mob 2020.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to announce a new collaboration with the Dunghutti (and Gumbaynggirr) community in South West Rocks, in the mid North Coast of NSW.
This production was created over 14 days in August 2020 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process with Desert Pea Media artists, local Original Nations young people, community members, Elders and other family.
The overall purpose of the project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations young people in 6 communities around the North Coast. The project is called 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Well-being' - funded by North Coast Primary Health Network.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyse 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities :)
The many connections created during this project with the community are friendships and relationships that the DPM team deeply value and respect. We as a team feel honoured to learn, share and create with the South West Rocks community. These projects not only uplift and inspire audiences and community members, but everybody involved.
'Our Country' was Directed by Toby Finlayson, Co-Directed by Rob Sherwood and Coedie McCarthy and shot and edited by Rob Sherwood.
Special thanks to Nancy Pattison, Lionel Blair, Benelong Carrol, Aunty Cheryl Blair, Uncle Martin Ballangarry and the Fig Tree Descendants Aboriginal Corporation. Much respect and gratitude to all the community members that worked so hard to make this a special experience for the young people involved. Thank you all so much for having us on your beautiful country.

Corrugated Iron Youth Arts is a Darwin based organisation working with young people around the Northern Territory. A long-standing relationship with Incite Arts has led to Corrugated Iron's involvement in Unbroken Land over the years. This year it has become a project of the Corrugated Iron Champions, a group of young leaders in the organisation who love visiting Alice Springs to be part of this project. Although devastated that this year didn't support a physical realising, the Champions took on the challenge of creating an online contribution.
This group of 14 to17 year olds reflected on the water theme and the different relationships people in the Top End have to water, compared to Central Australian communities. The resulting work, Top End Water, captures their creative and collaborative capacity. They wrote and recorded the words, they collected the imagery, played and recorded the music. For a group who are usually front and centre stage, this piece takes another direction.

SpinFx Band started around 1999. Amos was working as the music teacher in the Papunya School. Standley and Amos used to practise music every day. They wrote songs about life in Papunya, outbush, people and land. They recorded their first album ‘Ulumburru’ with CAAMA. It was launched at CAAMA with a live broadcast at the beginning of 2000. ‘Ulumburru’ the title track is a mountain to the south of Papunya that is part of the West MacDonnell Ranges. It is sacred land. A lot of the songs have been about hard times in life, and trying to help people. The album was a great success through CAAMA. SpinFx went to Sydney for the Deadly Vibes alongside Troy Cassar- Daley and Shikira.

We know in these times of change and uncertainty that it's good to stay connected in our minds. It's good to stay fresh and healthy. We know that some of the benefits of meditation can really help us to stay centred, to keep us in the moment, to release stress, to give us more self awareness and ability to learn.

Desert Pea Media is very proud to present a new collaboration with the community of Jabiru, NT. A mining and services town in the centre of dual-world heritage listed Kakadu National Park. The community of Jabiru is also considered 'the gateway to Arnhem Land'.
This production was created in September of 2020 - an outcome of a unique, collaborative creative process between Desert Pea Media, Red Lily Health (a local Indigenous-led Health Service) and local community members, elders and artists.
The overall purpose of the broader project was to facilitate an important, inter-generational conversation about social and emotional well-being for Original Nations communities. Focusing on cultural identity, health and positive choices.
Desert Pea Media projects involve a dialogue-based storytelling process that encourages participants to analyze 'the real', 'the ideal' and 'the bridge'. In simple terms this means critically thinking about how to create positive change for yourself, for each other and for our communities.
Thanks to Patricia Miller, Emma Cameron and the staff at Red Lily Health. Also to Gundjeihmi Aboriginal Corporation and Jabiru Area School.
Special thanks to the TO's of Jabiru - The Mirrar People, and all of the Clan Groups of Kakadu that welcomed us and shared their country for the creation of this production. We are humbled and grateful for your trust and support.

Red Dust: Utju - Kuula Wirunya.
Red Dust:
This song was written and recorded during the 2016 Healthy Living Youth Festival in Nauiyu Community from June 3 to 6. This latest instalment to the growing Red Dust library was brought to life through the popular desire for a second instalment to the unofficial local anthem recorded in 2014, "Nauiyu Nambiyu".
A big shout out to everyone that got involved with the festival and who helped make this song and music video so wonderful, and to Miriam Rose for laying down the chorus to the track!
Red Dust Role Model Tour #2 to Lajamanu.
11th, 12th & 13th June 2012
Part of Realtone Music Facilitators Steve Lane and Wayne Glenn's brief for this trip was to engage with the established bands within the Lajamanu Community and co-write a 'message' song.
During our first tour to Lajamanu, we met up with Zac and Dion from the North Tanami Band who helped us with the 1st 'health' message song 'Eat Good Tucker All The Time'
Zac and Dion were keen to work with Wayne and Steve again, and suggested that a song be written that could be used to discourage drink driving.
Tuesday, was set aside to work with the band and by the end of the day, the music was recorded and the lyrics for the chorus had been written.
Verse lyrics and vocal recording took place on Wednesday with lead guitar also overdubbed, then filming!!
The track was engineered by Steve Lane and Wayne Glenn and mixed by Steve Lane and Hans Mienig.
Checkout the song 'The Padi Boys' written and recorded on the Monday with young community members.
When an impending cyclone meant that the school on Melville Island that we had travelled to to run our song/recording/video workshop was closed, we hastily travelled to Milikapiti Primary (an hours drive North) to offer the 60 odd primary students a chance to write and record their own song.
We had just over 4 hours with the students to write a song about whatever they wanted.
They are all currently taking part in a program called Bounce Back which encourages the students to change path when the know that they are not doing the right thing.
Here's our theme song for the school.
Written and recorded on Tuesday 29th March 2010 at Milikapiti Primary by the students and the Realtone Crew (Wayne Glenn & Steve Lane) for Red Dust Role Models
Mi Gunja Yu - Kinthari/Parmbuk
We had a couple of days on Melville Island to run a music program for Red Dust Role Models at Tiwi College. The front page of the NT news carried a 50/50 chance of a Cyclone as we boarded our little twin engined plane to Melville. On arrival, we were told that there would be no students at the college this week with the chance of the cyclone bringing more rain to the waterlogged island ..... the roads already 'eating' four-wheel drive vehicles in slippery bogs.
A quick change of plan and a few phone calls by headmaster Clancy had us all ready to head to Milikapiti (just over an hour north) in the morning.
With our intreped Red Dust leader at the helm of the troopie we dodged our way around the bog holes and made it to Milikapiti Primary for our impromptue workshop.
On our way into the settlement we came accross some of the Tiwi College students with bags in hand ready to be taken to the college for the week. They were disapointed to find out that school was cancelled but decided to hang around just in case there was time to write and record a song after the primary students had completed their workshop.
We had 2 hours at the end of the day and their patience was rewarded with this beautiful song and video ... amazing what you can achieve in 2 hours!!
KINTORE - Red Dust Role Models Tour - August 12 -15 2013
'Everyday, Shiny and Clean' was written, recorded and filmed by the Kintore Community with Realtone's Wayne Glenn and Steve Lane for Red Dust Role Models.
The theme for the song was Keeping yourself fresh (basic hygiene) .... the title and chorus chant came from young Damien, who is one of the singers in this song.
The song was written, recorded and filmed at the Kintore School and features Kintore Community musicians Travis and Aaron on keyboards, Ambrose on rhythm guitar and drums and Francis on lead guitar and backing vocals. (checkout their song/video; Kintore Desert band recorded and filmed during this period)
Part 3 of this series invites the audience to understand what art centres need to keep playing their vital roles in their communities. Elders, artists and staff of three Aboriginal community controlled art centres share the importance of recognising and resourcing the art centres to support their communities.
The Freedom Day songs are sung by Gurindji people who lived and worked at Wave Hill station before they began a protest against poor conditions in 1966. This video features Ronnie Wavehill and other Gurindji singers and is narrated by Violet Wadrill.
In this week’s YiraraTV our girls go on a camp, we talk about how important reporting domestic violence is and the Allied Health Australia team visit Yirara.

CAMPFIRE
Established in 2006, Kaiela Arts is an Aboriginal art centre located in Shepparton. We provide an important space for artists and the community to connect with art and culture. Our work drives important outcomes for both our artists and the broader Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal community.
With a rich Indigenous heritage, the Kaiela Dungala (Goulburn Murray) region is home to many talented artists – Kaiela Arts represents more than 80 of those artists and helps to share and support their work. Artists receive training and mentoring at the centre, and the work of many artists has been exhibited around the State, in some cases winning prestigious awards.
We offer an accessible studio and social space for local artists to connect, create and share art. The centre is a welcoming environment for everyone to learn about Aboriginal cultural arts.
We provide training and professional development opportunities for member artists at all levels, including exhibitions and collaborations with artists and non arts organisations outside the gallery.
We are active in promoting the South Eastern Australian Aboriginal linear art styles, which is traditional to the Aboriginal peoples of the Kaiela-Dungala region.
We provide employment and training for Aboriginal people both as staff and artists. There are many opportunities to connect with the wider community through events, exhibitions, projects and workshops.

Nexus Arts will work with the Barngarla community (SA), Gunditj/Kurnai musician and student of linguistics Corey Theatre (SA), Ngaanyatjarra musician and choir leader Vonda Last (SA), Barngarla leader and linguistics student Stephen Atkinson (SA), and video and sound artist Dave Laslett (SA) to record traditional Barngarla songs and stories from Elders, and adapt and compose new songs in Barngarla through intergenerational music workshops for recording and public performance.
BACKGROUND
In recent language workshops in Port Augusta and Port Lincoln at the end of May 2016, Barngarla participants realised that there were still several Barngarla Elders alive with a substantial knowledge of language-related songs and music. As a tool for reclaiming the language and for reconnecting with Barngarla knowledge and heritage, community members discussed with the Gunditj/Kurnai musician and linguistics student Corey Theatre the recording, adapting and writing of Barngarla songs.

Light Painting at night with Copley Kids
Created over a two week mentoring period in Ceduna South Australia, Jo Lennon developed her son Rickie's story into a conceptual film work for the Arts Ceduna Exhibition 'No Black Seas' held at ACE OPEN.
This animation, “Tick Sickness” was developed to raise knowledge and awareness of diseases transmitted by ticks, including Ehrlichiosis, a new tick-Borne disease which was first detected in Australia in May 2020.
Ehrlichiosis, which is caused by the bacteria Ehrlichia canis carried by Brown Dog Ticks, can have significant impacts on the health of dogs. While international case reports are rare, there is a possibility that this disease can also impact on human health.

Join the Nyangumarta Rangers as they travel through desert country on the road to Kiwirrkurra in Western Australia.
Over four days in August 2021, the Nyangumarta Rangers share skills, stories and song with eleven Kiwirrkurra and three Li-Anthawirriyarra Sea Rangers from Borroloola.
Together, the rangers hunt for feral cats over spinifex covered sand plains, discover the burrows of the endangered Tjalapa (Great Desert Skink) and visit Wilkinkara, a breathtaking salt lake and sacred place for the Pintupi people.
Special thanks to the Indigenous Desert Alliance for funding this ranger exchange and film directed by Luke Sweet.
We acknowledge the Nyangumarta and Kiwirrkurra Traditional Owners of the land upon which this film was produced. We acknowledge elders past, present and future as well as the ongoing role of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in caring for country.

This animation, “Tick Sickness” was developed to raise knowledge and awareness of diseases transmitted by ticks, including Ehrlichiosis, a new tick-Borne disease which was first detected in Australia in May 2020.
Ehrlichiosis, which is caused by the bacteria Ehrlichia canis carried by Brown Dog Ticks, can have significant impacts on the health of dogs. While international case reports are rare, there is a possibility that this disease can also impact on human health.

Indigenous Outreach Projects were able to combine song writing, video and dance workshops to encourage the youth of the Ngaanyatjarra Lands School to gain confidence. These workshops made it possible for the youth together with the IOP Crew to deliver a concert in their Warakurna Campus for their community and make this deadly music video.
Our stars Dwayne Rogers and Kamahl Murrungun are back with three more Kriol verbs that you mightn't have heard before - ngarra, waranga and dinggal-dinggal. They aren't borrowed from English but come from traditional languages like Alawa and Marra but everyone in Ngukurr still uses these words.
And keep your eye out for Part 3, coming soon!
Made by the Ngukurr Language Centre with assistance from the Australian National University and the Federal Government's Indigenous Languages Support scheme.

IHHP and Miwatj Health collaborated on this song with the students Gapuwiyak School to produce the song 'Look after your future.' These amazing students wrote a song about their community and the effects of second hand smoke. They wanted to get a message out to the world about passive smoking. We are promoting healthy lifestyle choices through sport, dance, healthy eating and promoting health-seeking behaviours. This video is part of the Yaka Buny'djurr Ngarali campaign, hoping to promote healthy lifestyles and to de-normalising the use of tobacco.
Thank you to the dhappirrk young artist of Gapuwiyak. The staff of Miwatj health. Extra special thanks to Nathan and Dale and the young fellas that help to organise the Bungul, and in general helping us for the whole week.

Irish Stew in the camp oven.
Honestly you cannot beat cast iron cooking, this stew turned out absolutely amazing in the camp oven! Went about 2hrs on a low-moderate simmer, using the tripod allows you to cook with gentle indirect heat that comes off the coals so you’re less likely to burn the food. Just keep the coals nice and hot.

"I just want to say how proud I am of you Cecil, you have wanted to take this step for so long, you did it. You are a man! I'd like to thank my sister in law and brother in law for all the support that they have shown me throughout this whole journey."

Another huge Storytelling week at Pika to cap off a big Term 3 for Tiwi College. People who call the Tiwi Islands home often find themselves spending time away from family, community and country. This song, written by Yello with students from Tiwi College, captures the essence of being way from and missing home but always carrying the sense of belonging and connection to country with you no matter where life takes you.
About the Project:
After consultation with Tiwi staff it was determined that a harm minimization approach was the most appropriate one to take
while forming the project content. Messages about abstinence from alcohol and other drugs was seen as potentially isolating for
young people already exposed to substance use and potentially shaming for families as well as being quite unrealistic in the context
of young peoples experiences and developmental behaviors.
There was also a clear decision to try and incorporate solution focused strategies into the song and the content workshops. Young people
in the school had already spent time paras-identifying different behaviors and circumstances they did not want to see happening in the community.
Red Dust Role Models and Catholic Care worked together to support the facilitation and production of this music video.
The song was written, recorded and mixed on location at Tiwi College.
It features the students of Tiwi College with a special mention to Shane Tipuamantamirri on guitar and his son Tyson on keyboards.
The video was filmed at some important places near Tiwi College.

Imagine, from age 5, being separated from your mother for 32 years. It’s hard to imagine what Mona has been through.
Mona Olsson is originally from a small Indigenous community called Mimili in the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara (APY) Lands in the northwest corner of South Australia. Her sister is a custodian of Uluru in the heart of the Australian desert.
Mona was 5 years old, playing with her sisters and cousins by a desert stream when a truck pulled up. Police officers got out and started to round up the children. They were thrown into a truck and taken to a mission house. Although her mother managed to board the vehicle, she was not allowed inside the house. Mona said she didn’t see her mother again for 32 years.
“That was a terrible night…to be stuck in 4 walls…We’d been used to sleeping in a grass hut and if I woke up in the night I could look up and see the stars…like diamonds in the desert,” said Mona.
Mona had a lasting encounter with Jesus during her first year with the missionaries. One evening, she said God comforted her and explained the Scriptures she had been reciting without understanding. “I found Jesus when I was young. I think that was the most important decision I ever made in my life. I learnt how to forgive because He very clearly showed us that on the Cross, ‘Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.’ I never stopped loving Him.”
Mona is from the Stolen Generation; having spent time at the Colebrook Home in Quorn.
Mona now lives in Adelaide and is a respected Elder. Mona is a retired nurse and midwife.

Men and women from Elcho Island and Yirrkala, north-eastern Arnhem Land in the Top End of the Northern Territory perform dances, carrying woomera (spearthrowers), accompanied by singing, clapsticks and playing of the didgeridoo, at the Barunga Festival, 2018.
Indigenous Outreach Projects were honoured to capture The Gordon's vision to express the importance of Country to First Nations peoples and their culture. Focusing on the pivotal role it plays in their physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
We were able to showcase this year's NAIDOC theme, 'Always Was, Always Will Be' by exploring the rich history and stories of the region at the You Yangs and Point Addis.
In this unique collaboration of IOP and On Country Tours, with Norm and Nikki, we were able to highly engage and educate both the Indigenous and non Indigenous students of The Gordon. The students were left with a world of knowledge about our First Nations peoples and their connection to country.
The Thumbs Up! Team met local musician Jimmy Friday during the recent 'Music 4 Life' program as it visited BRACS in Ali Curung. Join Jimmy as he shares with us some stories about his connection to music.

The song was written and recorded by UJTU facilitators Johanna Campbell, Kahl Wallis and Buzz Bidstrup, recorded and mixed by Buzz and Max Bidstrup and the video was shot and edited by Amy Lee Shields.

This is a video of Yolngu (Wägilak) ceremonial leader, Daniel Wilfred, discussing the manikay (ceremonial song) and bungul (dance) in the gathering of different groups in ceremony. Daniel highlights the role of the sand – the ceremonial ground – for bringing together different groups to learn from and listen to one another.
A range of short videos of Daniel Wilfred (Ngukurr, NT), and Warlpiri Elder, Wanta Jampijinpa Pawu (Lagamanu, NT) sharing on significant cultural themes. These have been developed as part of a funded research project (Openings for collaborative theology through classical Yolŋu and Warlpiri epistemologies) for which both Wilfred and Pawu are co-investigators.

Putikutu Ananyi: Bush Trip is a stop-motion film made by a group of First Nations Spinifex Artists from the Tjuntjuntjara community situated in the Great Victoria Desert region of Western Australia. This is a story about families going out, getting mai (bush tucker), being on Country with family, and learning from old people. This story was conceived by Kendrea Hogan and contributed and fabricated by a production crew of over 10 young artists. Young artists at Milpa in their 20s and 30s make movies like Bush Trip to show kids a good way to be. Produced by the Milpa Collective a Spinifex Arts Project.

This story is about leaving all the sugary and bad shop foods to go and dig for maku. It was created by the artists Noreen Anderson, Pamela Hogan, Safrina Hogan & Shonna Jamieson as part of the Marangka Wangkapai sign language project at the MILPA space at Tjuntjuntjara. Funding was provided by the Australia Council for the Arts, Anglo Gold Ashanti and Spinifex Arts Project.

Ok this is basically the same Creamy Chicken, bacon & mushroom pasta recipe as the pic I just posted except I bbq grilled the chicken and added white wine. So still same same really.
Pan searing the chicken is easier and more flavour to be honest so do it that way I reckon.
Ingredients:
- use chicken thighs (juicer)
- whole brown onion diced
- 3-4 garlic cloves finely diced
- bacon rashers chopped
- Swiss brown mushrooms sliced
- fresh sage chopped
- 2 x small thickened cream tubs
- chicken stock or white wine
- parmesan cheese
- salt & pepper
Method: slightly different to the video but you’ll get the idea -
1. Season & pan sear the chicken until brown and remove, don’t fully cook we will finish cooking it later.
2. Add onion and bacon to the pan, cook until it begins to soften, add mushrooms, cook until they soften then add the garlic & sage.
3. Add chicken back in, stir thoroughly. Add about 1/2 cup chicken stock or a dash of white wine up to you, cook for a minute or two then add one small tub of thickened cream and another 1/2 if you need (I did). Add parmesan cheese, reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the cream reduces and sauces thickens. (Should stick to the back of a spoon).
4. Serve up with your favourite pasta or add pasta to the sauce pan and stir through up to you.
Enjoy!

Tjarlirli Art represents the artists of both Kaltukatjara (Docker River) in the Northern Territory and Tjukurla in the Ngaanyatjarra lands of Western Australia. The artwork has strong links with the Papunya Tula movement as families left Kintore and Kiwirrkurra to return to their homelands in the mid-1980s.
In 2021 the artists of Tjukurla took a trip to an important sacred site and this is their story.

Professor Wanta Jampijinpa Pawu, Warlpiri elder and director of the Milpirri Festival visits Melbourne and teaches about ngurra-kurlu (home-having) using the metaphor of tea and juice. What does it mean to carry your home within you?
Ngurra-kurlu is a pattern for relationships that Wanta has utilised in his teaching and research. It is a relational compass that helps us navigate life, understanding our place and purpose among others. Warlpiri ceremonies teach about ngurra-kurlu and shape community as an interactive, interdependent palka (body).

This year's Waitangi Day in Paihia, Aotearoa was different.
For the first time at the dawn service on the Waitangi Treaty Grounds, the Bularri Muurlay Nyanggan - 2 Path Strong performed alongside Māori and a First Nation American.
It was a show of solidarity of First Nation people from around the world who have suffered from the impact of colonisation. Representatives from each nation that were present and spoke about connection to country, culture and being proud of their ancient heritage.
The Tiriti o Waitangi is a document that was signed by Māori chiefs in 1840. There are two documents, the english version and the version in Te Reo Māori.
The Māori text doesn't exactly translate the English version and it has been a contentious subject to this day.
In the 80's Māori activists argued that the treaty was a fraud and that Pākehā had deceived Māori out of their land.
Here is a short film, highlighting the activities of Waitangi Day on the 6th of February 2023.
21 February is International Mother Language Day.

Community Weather: Kristian Coulthard talks about the seasons on Adnyamathanha country (English)
Men and women, painted with red and yellow ochres, walk towards the seashore to the sound of clapsticks. Every few metres the men of each moiety, supported by their women, do their typical dances with ceremonial cries. Having arrived at the water's edge the men plunge in and dance in the water; women dance, knee deep, to the side. They immerse themselves, washing off their ceremonial paint, leaaving the Mardayin spirit behind. They then form again in their moiety groupings and return to the ceremonial ground in the same manner as they came down, dancing and giving their yells. In Numbulwar, an Aboriginal community, Northern Territory, Australia.

As a way to introduce the audience to people, place and culture, ‘Listen’ began as a poem written by the group. It was translated into Auslan offering creative choreographic material for the artists to work with. This developed into a film and is an important reminder that these artists have stories to tell and they will tell them in their own ways.
A collaboration between the fellas of stArts with D, Super Powered is about super strengths and where the artists feel strong. We can take a trip with them to Darwin and cruise around Mparntwe (Alice Springs) while they show their super powers. A collage of talent is behind this film. With animations, songs, soundtracks and costumes, it is an empowering feast for the senses. What are your superpowers? Where do you feel strong?

We come from everywhere come one come all
Go to Alice to get your food
Come back with family don’t be a fool
Let’s talk about the way we used to live
Humpies and bush tucker that’s how it is
Teachers slept in hammocks to get the job done
Leaning on country, sitting in the hot sun
We’re proud of our homelands, kind and loving
No teasing, no humbugging

Don’t copy what you see if it’s not healthy
Do the right thing it helps you and me

Learn our way you know you wanna
If you feeling down, anxiety attack
Take a step back and think before you act
The clinic is there if you need a friend
Community and family till the end

Let’s do the things that we all love
Going swimming at the boundary bore
We do it healthy way, come on ya’ll
Keep your head up with no regret
No shame be proud and have respect

Protecting our People (PoP) program is a community based initiative that started in April 2020 due to the impact of COVID-19 on the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people living in and around the Port Augusta area.
Initially people in need or stranded due to COVID-19 were provided with quarantine support, accommodation, food, medical supplies, camping and bedding supplies, and transport back to their own country.
Since then, volunteers have continued to provide local support, adjusting the program to reflect the changing nature of the challenges that people are currently facing, across the communities.
Led by Barngarla, Kokatha and Kuyani, PoP is supported by a group of dedicated community volunteers, assisting over 800 people in need, living in and around the region.

Beef Massaman Curry, a really good curry to try out, super flavourful and not so spicey, some spice but nothing crazy.
Ingredients I used:
- Maesri Massaman Curry Paste
- Coconut milk
- Beef
- Onion
- Potatoes
Method:
1. Dice the onions, potatoes and beef (use fat off-cuts to render in the pot to cook in).
2. Brown the beef in the pot then remove and set aside.
3. Add curry paste and coconut milk, stir and heat through until simmering. Add the beef back in, the onions and potatoes. Stir through, reduce heat to a low-medium, put a lid on it and simmer until the beef is tender.

The Warddeken Indigenous Rangers of West Arnhem Land, Bush Heritage and scientists have joined forces to survey the little-known An-binik jungles of west Arnhem Land. The knowledge they gain will help the rangers to protect the fragile ecosystem from wildfire. During the 2014 dry season the rangers, supported by Bush Heritage, implemented a fire project as part of their Healthy Country Plan. They created a mosaic of burnt and unburnt patches across the landscape to help prevent run-away hot fires – a key threat to the plateau and the an-binik forests.
This short film is about saying 'many' in the Goldfields region of Western Australia.
In the NAIDOC 2023 year 'For Our Elders', the Goldfields Aboriginal Language Centre created a series of films ensuring Goldfields Elders have a voice. A film has been made, one in each community in the Goldfields, featuring an Elder talking about the democratic process of voting.
This is a film from Wanarn Community in the Goldfields region of Western Australia and Elders, Bernard Newberry and Lionel Foster, are discussing their voting story.
With the 'Voice Referendum' coming up later in 2023, it is the perfect time to ensure that Elders have a chance to record their thoughts and wishes with regards to young people participating in the referendum and using their democratic voting rights.
This film is in Ngaanyatjarra language. A second version of the film will be released in due course with English subtitles. However, it is important that Ngaanyatjarra speakers have an opportunity to speak in their own voice without interpretation in this, the year 'For Our Elders' 2023.
This fun film features Mr. Nintipayi who is a wise old man from the Goldfields region of Western Australia.
Mr. Nintipayi is going to vote in an election. He needs to decide which party to vote for. Watch Mr. Nintipayi as he listens to the leaders of the Roo Party and the Lizard Party talk about what they will do when elected, and then thinks about who he will give his number one vote to and who will get his number 2 vote.
This fun little film follows witchetty grub hunters Edie Ulrich and Marjorie Stubs as they look for the elusive lunki.
Enjoy this fantastic little film produced by the Goldfields Aboriginal Language Centre, filmed and edited by film maker, Rodney Stratton!

Where did the idea for an Indigenous Voice in the Constitution come from?
There is a lot of noise around the Voice to Parliament referendum, but when you head to the ballot box later this year, what exactly will you be voting for?
The ABC’s Fran Kelly and Carly Williams, a Quandamooka woman and National Indigenous correspondent for the ABC look at the foundational document for the Voice Referendum — The Uluru Statement from the Heart.
They discuss the consultative process that led up to the Uluru convention in 2017 as well as the dissenting voices at the time — some who remain fierce critics and others who have changed their views.
Carly and Fran unpack the term ‘Makarrata’ and look at the two main camps within the ‘No’ supporters.
What is the Indigenous Voice to Parliament hoping to fix? If the referendum passed, would it make it easier for these programs to get a national rollout, or just bureaucratic red tape that gets in the way?
Carly Williams and Fran Kelly discuss whether a Voice to Parliament could provide local solutions for local problems. They look at the successes and shortcomings of youth programs in regional Australia and talk to the people running them to hear their views on the Voice.

The future of WA’s national parks is in safe hands.
Meet Lionel Marr, a proud Bunuba man, who always felt a calling to return from the city back to his childhood home of Fitzroy Crossing.
He wanted to know more about his country, his people and his culture and became a trainee ranger with the Parks and Wildlife Service, earning a coxswain skippers ticket.
Lionel’s efforts during the Kimberley floods of January 2023, despite losing his family home, and his commitment to his job, earned him special recognition.
At a recent ceremony in Perth, Lionel was presented with a trainee ranger graduate of the year award by Environment Minister Reece Whitby and DBCA Director General Stuart Smith.
Meet James Tucker, a dedicated staff member who has shown us the incredible power of determination and adaptability.
James faces the challenge of a hearing disability every day but doesn't let it stand in the way of his dreams and contributions.
He earned his dream job fighting bushfires, thanks to his work ethic and ability to adapt to various situations.
Along the way, he's earned him the respect and admiration of his colleagues.
Thanks James for being an inspiration to us all and for your outstanding contributions to our mission of preserving and protecting our natural environment.

Ngurra Ngayukungku Waangkanyi
My Country’s Calling Me.
Red Dust headed back to Walungurru in October 2023 for a few days of recording with the Kintore Kungkas.
The kungka’s had been busy rehearsing and writing and had 3 new songs to choose from to record.
The band has made great progress since the initial week of their formation during a Red Dust Strong Young Women’s program back in July 2021.
The women were keen to write, sing, and learn to play instruments, and put together a kungka band back then.
Now they’ve played gigs and rehearsed regularly and the opportunities are coming.
With drummer Daisy, guitarist Zinata and vocalist Cindy, stuck 6 hours drive away in Alice Springs, the recording was left to Karey, Janaya and Jandelle.
The Kungkas also called on young wati (man) Henry Rowe to play drums. He is Karey’s little cousin and did a great job on drums.
During the recording process, we had some great conversations about production and arrangement. The Kungka’s ended up writing a new chorus and adding a poignant middle 8 to the song. We all had goosebumps when Karey spoke the words ‘I can hear it, I can feel it’.
The song is called Ngurra Ngayukungku Waangkanyi (My Country’s Calling Me) and is about the longing the Kungka’s have for Country when they are far from home.
The Kungkas chose to head out to a special women’s place called Ngutjul to film the video.
They also were filmed driving around Walungurru.
Thanks to the Kintore Kungkas and the Walungurru Community for sharing their Country, culture, stories and songs with us.
Recorded and filmed on Pintubi Country with permission.

The Red Dust crew traveled to Peppimenarti in October 2023 to work on a new song and video clip with the community and students at Peppi School. The students were keen to write a song about everyone living together in the community with a particular focus on sharing country and culture in Peppimenarti. A number of community members helped out in the writing of the song and in planning the video clip which features a traditional song sung by one of the students. It was great opportunity for the students and the community to come together and talk about their aspirations for the future and the importance of cultural learning, continuity and connection.

2019 Aboriginal Knock Out Carnival - Women: Lismore V Coraki - Game 12
This short documentary, produced by Warlpiri man Josef Jakamarra Egger, captured the Working together for better drinking water in the bush forum collaboratively delivered in partnership with the Australian Government through the Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (DCCEEW), Goyder Institute for Water Research and Desert Knowledge Australia (DKA). The forum brought together diverse participants from across South Australia, the Northern Territory, Queensland and Western Australia, including Aboriginal community representatives, land councils, utilities, health regulators, service providers and national, state and territory, and local government agencies.
The forum outcomes were also documented in a report and is a culmination of the collaborative efforts and insights shared at the forum, which identified twelve pivotal actions critical to advancing the provision of safe and reliable drinking water in remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. This can be found on the Goyder Institute for Water Research website - https://goyderinstitute.org/project/working-together-for-better-drinking-water-in-the-bush/
PLEASE VIEW WITH DISCRETION.Many people have passed away
In the 1980’s and 90’s, using VHS cameras Anangu (people from the APY Lands) recorded their ceremonies on video so that they could educate the children of the future. In those days communities only had the ABC. In 1987 The Federal Government (in response to the launch of the Australian satellite Aussat) introduced the Broadcasting for Remote Aboriginal Communities Scheme (BRACS). Aboriginal and Torres Islander people were concerned about the impact of the satellite and requested resources that would allow them to broadcast culturally appropriate videos.
The concept was to give Aboriginal and Islander people, access to and control of their own media at a community level. Due to limited funding, basic domestic analog audio and video equipment was used. Each installation comprised a cabinet to house a cassette recorder, radio tuner, microphone, speakers, switch panel, two VHS VCRs, television set, video camera, two UHF television transmitters, FM transmitter, satellite dish and two decoders. When the program finished towards the end of 1991, Telstra had installed 80 BRACS units across Australia all operating using an analog signal. The cost of delivery was high as all 80 units paid annual fees and upgrades (funded).
PLEASE VIEW WITH DISCRETION. Many people have passed away.
Video involved many Anangu across the APY Lands and PY Media, despite limited funds continued to produce content for ICTV (Indigenous Community Television) using earnings from commercial productions.
Irrunytju (Wingelina) is regarded by some as the last outpost of the Western Australia desert and to others as the centre of music. At any one time there are no more than 250 people who live in the community and on a hot 42 deg day your best friends are speakers, headphones and reggae.
Central Desert Reggae plays a huge role in making peoples lives that bit better and has become a recognised music genre with a unique quality. This music is a real treat for those who are addicted to dancing.

Fishing the Kimberley with Birchy’s Fishing Tours & Brent Simons on the Ord River, Western Australia!
Birchy is somewhat of a Barra whisperer and got us onto four of'em while losing about eight in the process! Crazy! and with a beautiful backdrop along the legendary Ord, I cooked up a simple feed of KEEN'S Curry Crumbed Barra & rice w/lemon and pickled chillies on the back of my Isuzu UTE Australia Dmax. ?
The Recipe:
While the boys insist there was a secret ingredient all I used was, plain flour, Keens curry powder, salt & pepper. Shallow fried until golden and served with rice, lemon and pickled chillies! The secret ingredient? Love. ?
I have to give a huge thanks to Birchy and Brent Simons for helping with the filming, he actually filmed the cooking segment of this video - gave him the camera and a couple pointers how to get focus, framing ect and he did an unreal job! This guy has never operated a camera like that before! Can't thank him enough for helping, appreciate it brother! ???

A new documentary presented by Desert Pea Media (DPM) ‘Crossroads: Reflections’ based in Moree & Bourke NSW, follows the story of the CROSSROADS PROJECT - a group of young Indigenous people in remote NSW, learning the craft of storytelling, creating impactful change, and building a positive future for their communities.
Moree & Bourke NSW. These remote, riverside towns in Regional NSW have been under the spotlight in recent years - amidst a so-called ‘youth crime epidemic’ in the Western region.
Charity organisation Desert Pea Media (DPM) has been running programs with Indigenous young people around the region for over 20 Years. Using creative processes and digital storytelling to create conversations around social change – exploring themes of cultural identity, community connection, hope, purpose and wellbeing.
Darrel Smith – CEO of Moree-based youth agency Mirray Birray said, “Our communities are continuously misrepresented by the mainstream media – focusing on negative stories that perpetuate racial stereotypes and bias. Youth crime is undeniably an issue, but the roots of the problem begin below the surface, and this consistently negative, reactive media isn’t helping our community”.
‘Crossroads: Reflections’ will be released on July and tells the story of a 12-month DPM project in Bourke and Moree NSW – demonstrating compelling and measurable social impact for young people and communities.
This is the story of a new generation of grassroots storytellers, as they embrace unique opportunities, and develop new skills in digital media creation, songwriting, leadership, and valuable employment/life skills. This personal/professional development process has triggered profound changes in the participants, their families and in the way they are perceived by the wider community.
“It’s time that communities started taking control of the narrative. Telling their own stories, listening to each other, reflecting on and defining their community story in a self-determined way,” said Toby Finlayson – DPM Creative Director/Co-Founder.
In Bourke NSW – the Crossroads Projects created pathways to employment. Ex-DPM Project Participants (B-Town Warriors, 2016) are now employed at Bourke High School, and as facilitators on DPM Projects in neighbouring communities. In Moree NSW - young artist Mika Tyson has started her own photography business!
“It’s changed my life heaps. I’ve grown as a person. I’ve learnt heaps. I wanna keep pushing this forward. I wanna fight for something better in this community – continue what they have (started) but in our own hometown.” said Mika Tyson – Participant (Moree, NSW)
The DPM Team is excited about the potential of the Crossroads model. The sky is the limit for these young people, and we are seeking new partnerships to roll out long-term projects around the Western Region and across Australia.
Desert Pea Media’s ‘The Crossroads Project’ was funded by the Office for Regional Youth’s (NSW Gov) ‘Our Region, Our Voice’ program.
“We now have clear evidence from the Independent Evaluation undertaken that the model works. The personal and social impacts are clear and measurable – long-term investment in communities creates positive social change, helps Indigenous young people feel more connected to their communities and improves social and emotional wellbeing for all involved.” (Scott Large – DPM General Manager)

Desert Pea Media is proud to announce the release of 'The Aunties' - an archival film from 2019, created as a collaboration with the Djabugay community of Kuranda, QLD.
Join a group of amazing Djabugay Aunties, as they share an intimate reflection on the difficult and traumatising social and political history of local Bama (Original Nations People) in North Queensland.
It’s important that we know our history and our context so that we might understand our situation, and make positive changes for future generations. These are traditional processes of knowledge transfer, and it truly an honour for us to listen, learn, share and create with the Djabugay community.
Created as part of the 'Break It Down - Community Conversations Around Wellbeing' initiative - funded by Northern Queensland Primary Health Network.

Youth group mentorship providing short goals and hope.
Keeping culture and language by teaching the next generations.
This is a song written by young people from Collarenebri Central School, as part of mentoring process with Toby Finlayson and Matthew Priestley from Desert Pea Media.
Beats by Marz 1, and fine beats at that.
The song is an entry into the Generation One Hands Across Australia schools competition.
A Desert Pea Media production. Created by Toby Finlayson and Matthew Priestley.
This short documentary follows three young Bwgcolman men from the remote community of Palm Island, QLD. Morris Walsh (17), Kiefer Walsh (17) and Patrick Seaton (21) are participants in a 'hip hop literacy' program with Desert Pea Media since 2004.
Together they form 'The PI Boys' - a young indigenous hip hop crew, known for their huge success on Triple J's Unearthed Competition and regular national airplay on radio around Australia.
Their hit song 'Aboriginal Justice' was an outcome of a Desert Pea Media workshop program and reorchestrated and arranged by acclaimed contemporary classical composer, Nigel Westlake.
The song advocates awareness of social issues such as alcoholism, poverty and the tragic 2004 death in custody of local man Mulrunji Doomadgee and resulting riots.
This is the story of their first ever trip to the big city, their first taste of success and their first ever live performance, at the 'Stylin Up Festival' - the biggest indigenous urban festival in the southern hemisphere.

One of WA’s most treasured natural areas is set to receive further protection with another 183,000 hectares of land now added to the conservation estate at Shark Bay.
New and existing reserves - from Monkey Mia Conservation Estate to the heritage-rich Dirk Hartog Island National Park - will now be managed by Malgana Traditional Owners, alongside Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA).
The joint management agreement also paves the way for new jobs enabling Malgana people to work on country protecting the region’s rich biodiversity for generations to come.
The new reserve creation is part of the State Government’s Plan for our Parks initiative, which is adding five million hectares to the conservation estate in WA.
Tiwi College students created a song focusing on connection to culture and community in Tiwi.
The program was co-facilitated by Tiwi and non-Tiwi school staff and Red Dust team members. The final song is a mix of both English and Tiwi.
Enjoy!

Baking an artisan style loaf of bread ??
This is my second ever loaf! It was so good the first time and now this is how I made it so you can make it too.
From what I’ve learnt and taught myself is that the longer you let the dough ferment/proof like overnight in the fridge the better the flavour and bread characteristics develop? Bakers can you chime in?
But yeah there you go have a crack that is a 2-2.5hr total cook time from start to finish ?
I’m in love with baking! Keen to learn more and share the journey! Enjoy ???
I tried the Barra Burger at Daly Waters Highway Inn servo in the NT and it was unreal! ??
