There was wide interest in the new program, which will identify foods and stories of the region for our new program following "Villages of the Heart". This was a program where some Museum members from several villages in their areas interviewed some of the "older generation" and heard and recorded many interesting stories. This new program is continuing as ”Paddock to Plate". (One could say it has opened a “can of worms”). There have been so many ideas and creative thoughts discussed by the participants and together with our Gastronomer Jacqui Newlings class seminar facilitator, exploring and discussing our ideas as we prepared a basic outline of a program that each was planning to work towards in the coming year. Food of course is something we think of every day and is at the top of our hierarchy of needs along with water. Food can also be very exciting as we spend much of our time thinking about it and planning what we will prepare for the next meal.

    Cage of Ghosts Finding Cages of Ghosts Jon Rhodes

    Cage of Ghosts Finding Cages of Ghosts Jon Rhodes For 20 years I used Alice Springs as a service town. As a still photogra- pher or as part of a film crew, I flew in, hired four-wheel drives, shopped at supermarkets and disposal stores and within a day or two was on my way to the western deserts and the Pintupi, Warlpiri and Jaru communi- ties—at Papunya, Yuendumu, Kintore, Kiwirrkura, Balgo and Yaruman. After some months away, the return to Alice Springs consisted of much the same activities in reverse—returning the vehicles, packing away camping equipment until next time, checking and cleaning cam- eras, sending off film for processing, and lots of telephoning. Within a day or two I would be on a plane heading home to the east coast. There was no time for sight-seeing. Alice Springs was a redneck, racist town in the 1970s—a place to get things done and then get away from. All this changed in 1992, when I was driving some members of a film crew from Yuendumu to the Alice Springs airport. We stopped briefly in town at the home of a local artist, and while I waited in her lounge room, my eye was attracted to the bright, jaunty cover of a small book that was propped up on the mantelpiece. Inside, the pages were beautifully clear sky- line maps of the landscape around Alice Springs. They were clear because all the clutter of the town was not drawn in, leaving the ranges and rocks easy to see.
