Australian Museum - no resources

Powerhouse museum - would be a great idea but no display. Look on website

Conservatorium of Music - gamelan room but no-one to show us (not really a student display) can book a workshop: gamelan, shakuhachi flute, world music, HSC preparation, composing for film.

Chau Chak Wing museum - may have in their collection but not on display. Look on website but not easy to navigate.

Visiting performances and workshops

Make own instruments

Cultural dance links

Art activities making shadow puppets, composing music to tell the story using slendro and pelog scale systems.
