This special yidaki was used during the visit of the television film crew from Grainger Television, which is doing a short documentary of Djalu, see www.graingertv.com and www.traveloztv.com - the Travel Oz show is on Australian television each week, and the segment on Djalu will also be screened in Europe to promote Australian tourism and the new Hollywood film "Australia" with Nicole Kidman. You can see this yidaki on the TV show.

That interviewer actually achieved a drone of sorts...sorry sounding but pretty good as it was only seconds after his first attempt at playing yidaki. It took me a month of trial-and-error to figure out how to get a drone going.
