Okay, I didn't get any bites last week on my utopian diatribe. Was just
looking for some warm and fuzzy reactions that could account for the
attraction of such a large body of potters working Downunder. None of you
realists were buying!

Any "cool" Australian pottery sites anyone want to turn me onto?

I'm looking for sites of any featured "self sustainers"

Dig, process/cure, throw, bisque, and glaze locally off the land. Even
industrial, put individual potters preferred.

---showing photos of the local environment, kiln and finished pottery all
wrapped up in a decent narrative.

Bear with me!
I'm going to reply to you, but, we're so busy doing
exactly what you asked about to answer immediately :)

ps I found the basic parts for a metal/frit furnace at our local tip on Saturday.
