Djalu Gurruwiwi and Lars Wallin, Arnhem Land 2007
Welcome to Bangardi's myspace
My name is Lars Wallin, my skinname is Bangardi and I belong to the Yirritja moiety.
It was Tom Kelly who back in 2001 gaved me my skinname when I was visiting Wugularr Community.
Bangardi is also the name everybody calls me when I'm in Arnhem Land or on tour with The White Cockatoo. Yo Bangardi! (Listen to the kids shout "Bangardi" on the video)
Ever since I saw Charlie McMahon playing didj on the blackfella whitefella tour back in the 80's I have had a huge fascination for the instrument and the Aboriginal culture. I jan 1989 I bought my first didjeridu, made by Marcus Blanasi, son to the old master David Blanasi. In 2000 I started to work with The White Cockatoo Performing Group, and since then I have toured all over the world with the group, and organized culture tours to Arnhem Land. I have published one book "Aboriginer & didjeridu" and one cd "Bangardi pogo (What goes up must come down). I'm a musician, writer, manager, promoter. This site will be a complement to myspace.com/larswallin with focus on the didjeridu and the culture tours we do.

Moiety and skin are an integral part of Jawoyn culture. Each moiety is associated with certain colours and proportions:Dhuwa - red, black, shortYirritja - yellow, white, long. An important principle within Jawoyn society is the joining of Dhuwa and Yirritja moieties to bring balance within the natural and cultural world. Dhuwa and Yirritja people are each divided into four skin groups. There are eight skin names as there are different names for males and females of the same skin. All people of the same skin are considered brothers or sisters, even if they are not blood-related.Skin determines how people relate to each other. A person’s skin determines who they have obligations or responsibilities to, how they must behave with people of other skins and who they can marry. Skin is inherited from the mother. The diagram on the following page shows correct marriage relationships in the Ngalkpon social system and how skin names are inherited through a four-generation cycle from the mother
