In Australian Aboriginal culture, Woolunda is the mythical place of life after death. Our guide on this visit is David Hudson, "Pied Piper" of the trance-inducing didgeridoo. Hudson, a member of the Tjapukai tribe of northern Queensland, plays instruments of his own making, including the traditional didgeridoo, and the "slide didgibone," a didgeridoo made from PVC pipe of two different sizes, one fitting inside the other.
