I met Scott Duncan at Yuendumu in 2000 when he came out to shoot a short film on the local painters for the NBC Olympics coverage and I was working at the local art centre.
Yuendumu is an Aboriginal community and pretty much smack bang in the centre of Australia on land belonging to the Warlpiri and Anmatjerre people.





I think meeting Scott and getting to share that first visit with him in Yuendumu really opened my eyes to what was possible creatively and encouraged me to take the book project I was working on to another level. But that's another story.

Now it's time to watch Scott's film 'Aboriginal Magic'! Keep an eye out for the awesome shot of the southern sky captured on a time lapse camera that sat out in the bush watched over by a herd of cattle.
