  • Like many of the early explorers and settlers who pushed their way into Australia's centre marveling alternately at the grandeur and then utter desolation, Ted Egan is captivated by the Centre. This journey through central Australia begins by looking at the country from the early European adventurer's viewpoint and compares their attitude and capacity to exist with the desert aborigines.

    Who couldn’t like a film like this. A great way to see Australia. And Ted does a great job though I wish he wouldn’t keep saying the land is millions of years old. That’s just man’s reckoning like Charles Darwin who got it so much wrong it’s not funny. But hats off to Ted. He’s alright. Love the guy. A real good sort.

    Everyone who comes here has a great sense of wonderment, so maybe what we learn is that at Australia's Heart is a great sense of truth. If imagination is what makes a human being, we learn here just how much we all have in common.

      Like Homer; geographer minstrel. Homer specialized because he was loosing his sight and needed an entourage; T's got an inordinately vast territory to contend with. Aussi gringo beating the drum for the rest to come into the fold and care for Country.

      35:33 Countryfolk spoonfeed gringos with the arrows indicating the migration route; pedagogical addendum. Larger zones are rock massifs and the cupped lines are by-the-wall hearths of special places in that complex. There seems to be a route coming in from the sandy flats. That last bit that Sister is working on could be a special transit-way-place where you can leave message tokens.

    Shame on you for clambering over their church, why not just walk all around it, as I have done many times. Where is your respect mate?

      It's a Rock in the middle of nowhere. Dinosaurs Hunted here millions of years ago. Human Nature is Tribal just like so many other Mammals.

      @@-TheRealChris I love the way people now think 1989 was the Dark ages when people have not evolved what a load of bulshit . I certainly think we knew more about Aboriginal people back then,than we do today instead of hiding them away so that the white people in Melbourne are not offended
