Indigenous Futurity: Milpirri as Experimental Ceremony

This project aims to develop a long-term research partnership between Warlpiri Indigenous knowledge holders, anthropologists, and community arts industry partner Tracks Dance Company. It will investigate Milpirri Festival as arts innovation, engaging community-members in collective responsibility for Indigenous heritage and futurity. The project will generate new knowledge of Milpirri song, dance, art and story through practice-based research with benefits for industry partners and Lajamanu community of increased community participation, outreach and impact.
