Description 42 min approxGreen Spine
Summary/Abstract This 42-minute documentary chronicles a one-week malunga training camp held at Desert Coursers Nature Resort in Zainabad, Gujarat in February 2003. Prior research by the Jairazbhoys had revealed that fewer than ten Sidis (African Indians) could still play the instrument, all of them elderly. The purpose of the camp was to bring together some of these elders to teach the basic techniques of malunga construction and performance to 16 Sidi youths, selected from different parts of Gujarat.

Publication Bhuj, Bharatiya Sanskriti Darshan Museum, 2002.
Description 27 min approxYellow Spine
Summary/Abstract Sidis are descendants of Africans who travelled across the Indian Ocean from East Africa over the last millennium or more. Gujarati Sidis are Sufi Muslim devotees of the African merchant-saint, Gori Pir. In their sacred songs, they credit Gori Pir with bringing the gift of joy (mauj/lehra) from the waves (mauj/lehra) of the sea. Sharing this sacred gift by cheering and healing the suffering souls who come to their shrines is their divine calling. The joyous energy of these African-Indian sounds recently thrilled audiences in England and Wales during the first Sidi tour abroad. These unique field recordings by UCLA ethnomusicologists Amy and Nazir Jairazbhoy were made in collaboration with Abdul Hamid Sidi and the Sidi community during their survey of Sidi shrines in Gujarat in 1999-2002. Proceeds benefit Sidi education projects in Gujarat.

Publication Chennai, Tara Books Pvt.Ltd., 2018.
Description 52pGrey spine
Summary/Abstract The Kadars are a small indigenous community in south India. Even though they no longer live deep in the forest, they still walk its paths every day. For them, walking is a way of knowing, not just a way of getting from place to place. This is the story of a Kadar elder who takes a young urban visitor through the tangled woods that make up his ancient home. The book captures an urban nature lover's experience of learning from a forest-dweller and is illustrated to bring alive the dark richness of an Indian tropical forest.

Summary/Abstract Extreme travelers Mark Anstice and Olly Steeds embark on a unique expedition into one of the most remote rainforests on earth.

Totally immersing themselves in this very different world for three months, Mark and Olly attempt to survive as the Kombai do, even if it means being attacked by ferocious warriors, eating huge maggots, living in a tree house and wearing grass skirts. From beginning to end, experience the highs and lows of this intrepid pair's fascinating quest to survive the rigors of rainforest life, and go behind-the-scenes for a candid and surprising look at the Kombai tribe.
