b'This podcast has been brought to life as part of Charlotte Schuitenmaker\\u2019s PhD Thesis on contemporary Indigenous musics in Australia, investigating the relations between activism, urbanism, and Indigeneity through music. Instead of using interviews for just her thesis, Charlotte wants to share the interviews with you. The stories are important, and this way they are more accessible.\\n\\nPlease be advised that this podcast contains references to deceased persons.\\n\\nGamilaroi and Wakka Wakka song man and didgeridoo player Gumaroy Newman and British-Australian flutist, pianist, and composer Keyna Wilkins talk about all things Yulugi; an ensemble they have set up about 3 years ago. From fuzzy Capricorn behaviour to the Scottish origins of the word \\u201cdigeridoo,\\u201d to the Australian national anthem, we have talked about it all. Most importantly, we talked about how music of the \\u201chere and now\\u201d can celebrate humans in all our commonalities as well as our differences. Because in the end, we are all (going?) grey. This episode includes one of their songs at the end of our talk as well, make sure to stay tuned!\\n\\nLittle spoiler alert: Jalal Mahamede is now a free man! He was released only a couple of weeks after we recorded this episode.\\n\\nShow script:\\nhttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1NWZM_5NvOlpCT7XoovqzM9N1oeSoGK7hDK8YBK1NLJk/edit?usp=sharing\\n\\nTo find out more: https://www.yulugi.com/\\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yulugiensemble/\\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yulugi\\n\\nLinks for more information:\\n- About Ganga Giri: https://gangagiri.com/\\n- About the online streaming event hosting \\u201cCelestial Emu\\u201d composed by Keyna\\nWilkins and performed by Gumaroy Newman on Yidaki (Didgeridoo) and the\\nMetropolitan Orchestra.
