The "a Bit na Ta" project explores a century of Tolai history in Papua New Guinea through the perspective of their clandestine Tubuan society. Centered on a synthesis of traditional and contemporary music, the project incorporates ceremonial chants, string bands, and modern soundscapes. The long-term collaboration between George Telek and David Bridie integrates cultural heritage with contemporary Melanesian artistry. This multimedia installation and its accompanying album function as a significant act of cultural diplomacy, illustrating the resilience of Tolai identity amidst colonial and environmental upheavals.
