In this immersive media experience, Larrakia Elder Lorraine Williams leads viewers through the Gulumoerrgin seasonal calendar year and 140,000 years of regional environmental history uncovered through recent scientific research. The Girraween Lagoon Story is an excerpt from The Earth Above: A Deep Time View of Australia’s Epic History and was created in collaboration with the Larrakia and Wulna communities by Deakin MotionLab for the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Australian Biodiversity and Heritage (CABAH). Artist and Producer’s statement: “This endeavour merges Indigenous knowledge and CABAH research, fostering a transformative insight into Australia’s extensive cultural and environmental past”. My role has been expansive: key in the formulation of palaeoecological content, hosting field activities, the provision of pollen morphological imagery, draft feedback, and public event speaking. https://epicaustralia.org.au/resource/theearthabove/ https://discover.darwin.nt.gov.au/events/world-premiere-girraween-lagoon-story-excerpt-earth-above
