Zorba the Greek Yolngu style

Frank Djirrimbilpilwuy from Milingimbi has been in the Indigenous Media Industry for many years and has been a long-standing member and supporter of the Top End Aboriginal Bush Broadcasting Association, TEABBA Radio. As the man behind the camera and release of the video, Frank is also representing the dance group who call themselves "The Chooky Dancers". Frank has said that he filmed the footage at this years Ramingining Festival on the 30th September 2007 and knew it would be "something special" as soon as he saw the boys rehearsing.

The Chooky Dancers are a group of 10 energetic young men who had healthy living in mind when they choreographed the performance. Frank's son Lionel is the lead dancer in the video footage at front and center. "They (the Chooky Dancers) begun working on this just after this years Garma Festival in Gukula and worked very hard on it, they also do a Bollywood style performance which is also fantastic" Frank said.

A vision of students today

This is a short YouTube video summarizing some of the most important characteristics of students today - how they learn, what they need to learn, their goals, hopes, dreams, what their lives will be like, and what kinds of changes they will experience in their lifetime.
Created by Michael Wesch in collaboration with 200 students at Kansas State University.

During the course of planning our book, Fancy Footwork, Helena Spyrou took these photos, in case we wanted portraits in the book. Later, we decided not.

I want to bring the peace and goodwill that she represents into this blog.

Windows Live Writer
