Discover the inspiring work of Dr. Lawrence Blair — filmmaker, author, lecturer and explorer of inner and outer worlds.
Spanning more than four decades, his catalogue of images, tales, talks, books and films chronicle a lifetime of adventures across the Indonesian archipelago.
Follow Dr. Blair’s journeys among the Bugis tribe of former pirates, the Asmat headhunters of Papua, and the Toraja of Central Sulawesi, who believe their ancestors came from the stars. Encounter the mystics and magicians of Java, Bali and the Lesser Sundas, the dragons of Komodo, the elusive tarsiers of Sulawesi and Borneo, and the evolutionary extremes of the Paradise Birds of Indonesian New Guinea.
