Started by a group of local die-hard motorbike riders, now over 500 Australian competitors, race a 284 mile course on some of the world's toughest terrains and harshest climates. King of the Desert, is awarded to fastest outright time.

  • Feb 13, 2008 - Alice Springs, Northern Territory, Australia - Australia's 460,000 Aborigines make up about two percent of its 20m population. They are consistently the country's most disadvantaged group. At the roughly 18 communities surrounding the town of Alice Springs, many social problems exist among the 3,000 Aborigines living there, with high rates of alcohol abuse, child abuse, and domestic violence. Aborigines continue to live in Third-World conditions in a First-World country despite a government drive to improve their lives. Although millions of dollars have been poured in, little has changed in over a decade. One Aboriginal person dies an alcohol-related death every 38 hours in the Northern Territory. In August, Alice Springs became a dry town, in an effort to stunt the abuse of alcohol, but little has changed in the wake of the ban. The government has also started quarantining the welfare funds of the Aboriginal population, so that the money can be spent only on food and necessities. Even after 40 years of landmark voting, when Aborigines were first recognized as full Australian citizens, countless 'Town Camps' and remote communities are still marked as blank on many maps. For now, what many call home is a littered patch of dirt on the outskirts of town, where feral dogs wander through thousands of empty beer cans. Hope for change seems as though it is a distant mirage. Newly elected Australian leader Kevin Rudd publicly apologized to indigenous Aborigines for past indignities.

  • Mar 07, 2009 - Alice Springs, NT, Australia - Last Saturday night I went on assignment for The Australian newspaper to cover the launch of a new magazine called Australian Aboriginal Art - a magazine devoted entirely to the Aboriginal art scene. The launch party took place in none other than Alice Springs, the remote outback town that I live in. I had the opportunity to photograph the publisher and creator of the magazine, Steve Bush, whose love of all things art has inspired this new venture. Bush is also the founder of B5 Media, which publishes the magazine ArtWorld, and many other titles across Australia and the UK. The audience was also treated to a performance by the Sydney based dance company Bangarra. Bangarra Dance Theatre is one of Australia's most unique and innovative dance companies, blending traditional Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history and culture with international contemporary dance. .(Credit Image: © Marianna Day Massey/ZUMA Press)
