The Message Stick program on ABC TV did a fantastic job featuring the Ilgarijiri project. It went to air at 1:30pm on Sunday November 1 on ABC1, with repeats on Monday November 2 at 5:00pm on ABC2 and Friday November 6 at 6:30pm. So, you can still catch it.
The program can also be viewed online at the ABC website:

The Ilgarijiri exhibition will launch in Canberra at the Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS) on November 27, 2009. Thereafter the exhibition will be open for viewing by the public through December and perhaps January.
Ilgarijiri is featured in the blog of the Curtin University of Technology Vice Chancellor, Prof. Jeanette Hacket. Prof. Hacket launched the Perth leg of the Ilgarijiri exhibition on September 15:
