Excerpt

EARTHCONE NOORAT TAROON A site art exploration of Mount Noorat, Western Victoria Australia by artists Cameron Robbins and Jon Tarry as part of the 25 year EARTHCONE series of sound art projects, in diverse locations coast to coast Australia and Europe.

Mt Noorat erupted around 20–25,000 years ago, ancient events which are recorded in the oral histories of the Kirrae Wuurong people.

Noorat is the largest DORMANT dry volcano in Australia, peaking at 310 metres above sea level. The vertiginous scoria crater is 200 metres wide and 150m deep, lower than the surrounding plain. It has multiple vents and a very complex topography.
