Back To Country: A Guided Reflection on Sovereignty by Gabe published on 2020-02-11T03:12:17Z Back to Country: A Guided Reflection on Sovereignty’ is a 10-minute audio experience that uses mindfulness and visualisation techniques to ground people in space and time. The listener is guided to reflect on the deep history of the land they are on, Aboriginal land. The project was led by Wiradjuri academic Tamara Power with creative and cultural contributions from Budawang / Yuin researcher and designer Danièle Hromek and design academic Gabriel Clark. The original script, written by Tamara Power and Maddy Lines was adapted by the team for this project. In the audio, listeners are taken on a journey back in time by Budawang / Yuin actor Jorjia Gillis and then Welcomed to Country by Gadigal / Dharug / Gundungurra, Yuin Elder Uncle Greg Simms. The sound design by Martin Peralta layers the sounds of the locations and places a hypnotic and rich audio journey creating aural landscapes of the past and present. www.backto.country Genre Storytelling
