In this episode with no subtitles, you are invited to learn as our yawirriny' (young men) do. They listen more than they speak, watch more than they wander, and learn richly more than others give them credit for. It was a gift to watch the captivating process of making a didgeridoo and culminating it by using it in a dance ceremony.

Thank you, Steven! Yes, we are looking forward to doing this more often so our young men become experts at yidaki-making.

Thanks for sharing this, I just wish I could understand what he was saying, especially while making the finishing touches to the yidaki. I'm a yidaki player and soecialise in traditional playing. I'm lucky enough to have a stick from north arnhem land, made by D. Gurruwiwi, it really is an honor for me to be able to play and share in a tiny way with this rich and vast culture.

During the finishing touches, the Elder was sharing how the yidaki and bilma (clapsticks) are essential as they grow into manhood. He talked of how fights and disagreements could be settled with the yidaki and bilma - through the singing of songlines that clarify relationships. He talked of how the young men have a lot more to learn and how the yidaki is part of that, the same way that for young women, collecting pandanus and weaving is part of their growing up.
