Synopsis
The Yolngu People are the traditional land-holders of North East Arnhem Land, Australia. BAY PAY MI is an experimental piece, created in collaboration with the Yolngu elder women. It talks about the Yolngu elder women's connection to the land and all that it provides. The women talk about the importance of passing on cultural knowledge to the next generation. BAY PAY MI was created over a week, out in the bush in North East Arnhem land. It was created on a laptop connected to a generator.
