1 On Tjukurrpa, Painting Up and Building Thought Craig San Roque , 2009 single work criticism
— Appears in: PAN , no. 6 2009; (p. 40-60)
'This article contemplates the possible relationship of Central Australian "Dreaming," or Tjukurrpa, to symbol and thought formation in desert Aboriginal culture. Acknowledgement is given to the diversity and complexity of descriptions ofTjukurrpa. The author is concerned with how thoughts are made, what they are made of, and how thinking might go wrong, that is, how disorders of thought in the intercultural matrix might arise. Thinking as a form of mental activity may be deeply related with the ontopoetic ancestry of language and locations of human movement and activity. The author suggests that through an analysis of detailed, grounded, intercultural conversations and an understanding of the structure and content of Tjukurrpa, non-Indigenous people working in health and law might appreciate and comprehend Aboriginal thinking and behaviour (and thus be more effective in various aspects of mutual engagement). The challenge is mutual and reciprocal.' (Source: Editor's abstract)

1 form y separately published work icon Sugarman Sugarman Performance Craig San Roque , ( dir. David Roberts ) Sydney : Antipodes Productions , 1999 Z1556432 1999 single work film/TV

Sugarman is a 'work in progress', a cross-cultural community performance/demonstration of sacred art, music, and theatre from Central Australia that was conceived as a response to Aboriginal people asking for the 'story of grog' (alcohol) to help them understand and heal substance abuse and dependence.

A poetic adaptation by community psychologist and Jungian analyst Craig San Roque (set to music and movement) of the Greek myth of Dionysos, Sugarman explores issues of separation, desire, addiction, madness, and the healing to be found at the core of the human psyche.
