omg a māori f1 writer! not a request, but genuine question - who’s someone you can see being with a māori girl 👀 like who can you see being taken to a marae and learning how to hongi and meeting all the aunties and uncles

Haha omg it would be such an eye opener for all of them!

Lewis: he would be the type to ask to come with you because he wants to know more about where you come from. He is eager to learn and inquisitive, feeling prepared when he arrives at your ancestral land to a pōwhiri. Lewis has tears in his eyes when he sees the beautiful brown woman welcoming him with a karanga and from there he falls in love with the culture. He loves that there are always dozens of kids hanging around the marae and he never has a chance to sit down as he plays games with them for hours - they also teach him the haka. He would particularly like those hours after dinner where someone brings out their guitar and everyone sings along, the aunties harmonising perfectly, and he feels connected even if he doesn't understand the words.

Daniel: for obvious reasons 😂 being an Aussie, he’s laid back and it probably wouldn’t be the first time drinking a crate of beers in a paddock in the middle of nowhere. It would feel like a second home to him once he remembers to take his shoes off before he steps inside the marae. He doesn’t mind kissing every aunty on the cheeks but takes a bit of practice going in for a hongi without missing the uncles nose. After the formalities are done he is in his element and charms everyone which his infectious smile and constantly makes them laugh.

Oscar: another Aussie that is chilled af so he wouldn’t cause any drama at the marae. He is polite and helpful so the aunties love him and try to coax him out of his quiet state while recalling stories of you as they peel hundreds of potatoes. He is strong too so the uncles would steal him to dig the hangi pit and take the moment to threaten him if he hurts you. He can't hide his surprise when you explain the sleeping arrangements but after all the mattresses are laid out in one cavernous room he warms up to the idea and even feels nostalgic for the nights his family/cousins/friends would all sleep over and they would all drag their mattresses to the living room.

Lando: he’s lived/raced in NZ when he was younger so there would be a sense of familiarity coming back. He likes learning about different cultures (like his recent trip to the temples in Bali) so he would pay attention to the rundown given about customs. Unfortunately he has a terrible memory and may make a few mistakes with what’s tapu like snacking in the marae or sitting on the table. Also, he would fall in love with the food because there’s nothing spicy, something he cannot handle. Known to giggle at inappropriate times with the little cuzzies like when someone says whakapapa. Wakes up to find he rolled the wrong way in the night and is spooning an uncle not you.

Max: takes everything too seriously and is worried about messing up so he buys a book on Maori culture as soon as he lands at Auckland Airport and finishes by the time he reaches the marae. Is pleasantly surprised to find that after the formalities the entire atmosphere relaxes and he is treated like he has always been there. The aunties shoo him out of the kitchen when he tries to help, handing him a drink and sending him to the uncles who are all inspecting the new 4x4 someone bought. Surprisingly, he learns a bit about cars from them and wants his own Ford Ranger or Toyota Hilux now, despite Daniel trying to get him to convert to one for years.

I've just learned about an indigenous Brazilian flute which, at first glance, looks almost exactly like an indigenous Southern African flute (not the part of Africa where slaves were taken to the Americas, so they must have been independent inventions !). I can't find any recordings or video of either flute online, but I think they're only visually/superficially similar, which is fascinating

this is a traditional flute of the Apinajé, a branch of the Gê-speaking indigenous peoples from central Brazil (link to another example at the Swedish Ethnographic museum here). it is (in German) described as : "Pfeife mit kleinem Schallkürbis der Träger des Namens Tamgaága" (the Museum lists "Tamgaága" as the local name of the flute, but I think that was actually the name of the original owner. the word has a few hits on google in Portuguese articles and seems to be a personal name, and it has 0 hits for anything flute-like. anyone who can read Portuguese please verify)

and these are the "ombgwe" and "khumbgwe", traditional flutes of the Shona-Karanga and Venḓa peoples of Zimbabwe and South Africa (from P. R. Kirby, 1934 (2nd ed. 1968) The Musical Instruments of the Native Races of South Africa, Plate 45)

Although they look alike superficially, I think they're actually played from the opposite ends. below is the archival card from the Göteborg Museum for the Apinajé flute :

it suggests there are some more details in "comment no. 5 in the original catalogue," which I'm pretty sure is this one from 1931 (link to readable version on Google Books here). although I can figure out a brief catalogue entry, I don't actually speak Swedish so finding the relevant passage in that whole book has proved difficult...

anyway. the point is that looking at the sketch and hole placement on the calabash resonator, I'm fairly sure the flute is played by blowing across the top of the reed pipe, just as you would play panpipe for example, and the pitch is changed using the finger holes on the calabash at the bottom. if the finger holes were at the top, it would make the remaining pipe length irrelevant so I can't imagine it's played the other way around. also think of the western oboe family of instruments, which have a bulbous bell at the bottom to affect the timbre.

now, consider the Shona-Karanga ombgwe. Kirby provides a photo of one being played in his book cited above, and Margaret de Lange describes the playing technique in the catalogue of the old Africana Museum in Johannesburg.

the ombgwe is played with the gourd (or nsala fruit shell) at the top, blowing across a mouth hole just as you would on a Chinese xun for example, and the reed pipe extends downwards. the finger holes are once again on the bottom of the instrument, ie on the reed tube of the ombgwe

Site of Connection Historical Research: WYNYARD QUARTER

All information has been collected from the official Eke Panuku Development Auckland website.

The area was initially utilised by the timber trade, then in the 1930s, it started to be used for bulk petro-chemical storage, leading to the area becoming known as the 'Tank Farm'.

Before being reclaimed, Wynyard Quarter was the tidal shoreline of the Waitematā Harbour. 

In 2007, Sea+City Projects was established to oversee the development of Wynyard Quarter. In 2010, as part of the super city merger, Waterfront Auckland (now Eke Panuku) was established as the Council Controlled Organisation to manage the development of Wynyard Quarter.

In August 2011, ahead of the Rugby World Cup being hosted in Aotearoa New Zealand, 500m of new public space was brought to life in the form of Silo Park, North Wharf, Karanga Plaza and the Wynyard Crossing Bridge. This changed the area from being an industrial area closed off to the public, to a new waterfront neighbourhood where people visit, work and live.

Wynyard Quarter has continued to develop into the welcoming neighbourhood you see today. It has played host to many major sporting events, such as the 36th America’s Cup, and it continues to evolve.

Since 2015 the innovation precinct has been developed by Precinct Properties, and is being completed in stages. Currently, the third and final stage is underway and due for completion in 2025.

SLD TASK 1 - SELECT A SITE OF CONNECTION

Possible sites of connection I have done research on:

Auckland Art Gallery

Wynyard Quarter

Takutai/Britomart square

Te Komititanga

Albert park

Te Wananga

Result: I am still choosing between Wynyard Quarter and Auckland art gallery, due to still needing time to fully explore my ideas and seeing future possibilities for both. (At the moment however I am leaning towards the Wynrad Quarter due to wanting to do a water-like spread and being attracted to the endless amounts of activity and ongoing renovations that is happening there).

See facts below:

 The Wynyard Quarter:

Known as the place where the city meets the sea (where you have the city skyline on one side, and the sparkling waters of the Waitemata Harbour on the other). The Wynyard Quarter covers 0.47 km2 (0.18 sq mi). It is part of the statistical area of Wynyard-Viaduct, which also covers the Viaduct Harbour.

It is a key meeting place with a lot to offer: residential apartments, corporate businesses, restaurants (including high tea), pop up markets, outdoor fitness activities, biking, dockline tram. It has also been a host to many major sporting events, such as the 36th America’s Cup.

Through wide consultation, Auckland Council, former councils, and other key organisations gathered public views and expressed the desired outcomes for the waterfront.

However it didn’t always used to be this way.

Use to be called “The Western Reclamation”.  Had multiple different uses for trade back then. 

Timeline:

Up until the 1930’s, was used to provide additional berthage capacity and flat land for port related activities, as well as timber trade. 

It was then used for bulk petro-chemical storage, leading the area to become known as the 'Tank Farm'. 

Due to fuel supply changes in Auckland, in 2005, Ports of Auckland decided to develop it into a harbourside community, which took place in stages and documents which became the blueprint for it over the following decades (it is still undergoing and improving). This includes:

Plans - Waterfront plan(2015)

The City Centre MasterPlan 2020

The Auckland Plan 2050

Te Ara Tukutuku Plan

The most substantial changes:

August 2011 -  500m of new public space was brought to life in the form of Silo Park, North Wharf, Karanga Plaza and the Wynyard Crossing Bridge. This changed the area from being an industrial area closed off to the public, to a new waterfront neighbourhood where people visit, work and live.

2018, the first residential apartments were completed, and residents were able to move into  “Wynyard Central” and 132 Halsey by Willis Bond. Since then 30 Madden has been completed in 2021 and welcomed even more residents into the neighbourhood.

Future plans: 

The next decade will continue to see the plan for Wynyard Quarter come to life. The point to the north of Wynyard Quarter will be developed into a park, and other areas in Wynyard Quarter will be developed to accommodate the growing needs of the community by introducing more housing, offices and public amenities.

Auckland art gallery:

Founded in 1888. 

as the first permanent art gallery in New Zealand.

Permanent collection of over 17,000 artworks

Location:

Exact location: Corner Wellesley and Kitchener Streets, Auckland CBD

Close to Queen Street, you can see glimpses of Albert Park from some of the gallery floors. 

Architecture:

The main gallery building was originally designed by Melbourne architects Grainger & D'Ebro to house not only the art gallery but also the City Council offices, lecture theatre and public library.

Early French Renaissance style, constructed of  brick and plaster. Light-filled North Atrium;  The building is striking with beautiful Kauri columns and a canopy that stand tall above you as you approach the building.

It is three storeys high, with an attic in the steep pitched roofs, and a six-storey clock tower.

Original building completed in 1887, with an extension built in 1916. The renovation of the building in 2011 resulted in an award for the building as World Building of the Year at the World Architecture Festival.

The redevelopment has received 17 architectural and 6 design-related awards, including the World Architecture Festival's 2013 World Building of the Year.

Pros: Entry is free for New Zealand residents.

Four floors of exhibitions - each room has something different

7-Day Machame Route Kilimanjaro Trek by Spirit of Kilimanjaro

Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro is one of the most extraordinary experiences a traveler can have. The highest peak in Africa, reaching 5,895 meters (19,341 feet) above sea level, offers breathtaking views, a diverse range of ecosystems, and a unique sense of accomplishment once you reach the summit. The 7-day Machame Route trek is one of the most popular routes to the top, and with the expert guidance of Spirit of Kilimanjaro, it can be the adventure of a lifetime.

Why Choose the Machame Route?

Known as the "Whiskey Route," the Machame Route is renowned for its scenic variety and relatively high success rate compared to other routes on Kilimanjaro. This longer, 7-day itinerary gives climbers more time to acclimatize, which significantly increases the chances of summiting without suffering from altitude sickness.

The Machame Route offers stunning views of glaciers, rainforest, alpine deserts, and the iconic Kilimanjaro landscapes. Spirit of Kilimanjaro has crafted this trek to be an immersive experience that balances adventure with safety, making it ideal for both novice trekkers and experienced hikers.

Day-by-Day Itinerary

Day 1: Arrival and Kilimanjaro Briefing

After arriving in Tanzania, you'll be welcomed by the Spirit of Kilimanjaro team at Kilimanjaro International Airport. From there, you’ll be transferred to your comfortable hotel in Moshi, where you'll meet your guide and the rest of your team. You’ll have a briefing about the climb, including safety tips, the route, and essential equipment. This is the perfect time to ask any last-minute questions and mentally prepare for the trek ahead.

Day 2: Machame Gate to Machame Camp (2,980m/9,780ft)

After an early breakfast, you’ll depart from your hotel and head to the Machame Gate, where your trek officially begins. The day’s trek takes you through the lush rainforest zone, where you’ll be surrounded by towering trees, moss-covered vegetation, and the sounds of wildlife. The trail is moderately steep, but the stunning scenery will keep you motivated.

At the Machame Camp, you'll spend your first night camping under the stars. The camp offers incredible views of Mount Kilimanjaro and the surrounding landscape. After a hearty dinner prepared by the team, you’ll have time to relax and acclimatize to the altitude before resting for the night.

Distance: 11km (7 miles) Time: 5-7 hours Elevation Gain: 1,000m (3,280ft)

Day 3: Machame Camp to Shira Camp (3,850m/12,630ft)

On day three, the trek continues through the moorland zone, where you’ll begin to notice the landscape changing. The dense forest slowly gives way to sparse vegetation, and the views of the mountain become even more breathtaking.

The route is a bit steeper today, but with the help of your experienced guides, you’ll take it slowly and steadily. The Shira Plateau, where your next camp is located, is an expansive and otherworldly landscape. The camp provides panoramic views of the mountain and surrounding areas, perfect for sunset photography.

Distance: 5km (3 miles) Time: 4-6 hours Elevation Gain: 870m (2,850ft)

Day 4: Shira Camp to Barranco Camp (3,950m/12,960ft)

Today’s trek offers one of the most scenic parts of the Machame Route, as you traverse the Shira Plateau, then hike up the western edge before descending into the Barranco Valley. The Barranco Camp sits at the base of the Barranco Wall, a formidable rock face that you’ll tackle tomorrow.

Along the way, you'll pass the famous Lava Tower, a 300-foot rock formation that marks the highest point of the day. After reaching Barranco Camp, you’ll get a chance to rest, enjoy a warm meal, and marvel at the stunning view of the Barranco Wall and the valley below.

Distance: 10km (6 miles) Time: 6-8 hours Elevation Gain: 100m (330ft) Elevation Loss: 900m (2,950ft)

Day 5: Barranco Camp to Karanga Camp (4,035m/13,267ft)

On day five, the trek begins with the famous Barranco Wall. While it may look intimidating from a distance, the wall is actually a series of steep but manageable rock steps, and your guides will ensure that you're safe and confident as you climb.

After conquering the Barranco Wall, you’ll continue to Karanga Camp. This is a shorter day compared to others, giving you plenty of time to rest and acclimatize to the altitude. The views from Karanga are spectacular, with glaciers visible on the mountain’s summit and the valley below.

Distance: 5km (3 miles) Time: 4-5 hours Elevation Gain: 350m (1,150ft)

Day 6: Karanga Camp to Barafu Camp (4,640m/15,223ft)

The trek to Barafu Camp is a relatively short but steep climb through rocky terrain. As you ascend, you'll start to feel the altitude more acutely, so it’s important to take it slow and stay hydrated. Once at Barafu Camp, you’ll be in the final stretch before summiting.

The camp offers minimal shelter, but you’ll be able to rest and prepare for the midnight summit attempt. After an early dinner, you’ll go to bed early to rest for the big day ahead.

Distance: 4km (2.5 miles) Time: 4-5 hours Elevation Gain: 600m (1,970ft)

Day 7: Summit Day – Barafu Camp to Uhuru Peak (5,895m/19,341ft)

The final day of your trek is the culmination of all your hard work. You’ll begin your summit attempt at midnight, trekking through the night with headlamps to guide your way. The temperature will be extremely cold, and the air will be thin, so your guides will ensure you take regular breaks to stay energized and safe.

After a challenging but exhilarating ascent, you'll reach the summit – Uhuru Peak – just as the sun begins to rise. The views from the summit are truly magical, with a vast expanse of the African plains stretching out below.

After taking in the moment and capturing some photos, you’ll descend back down to Barafu Camp for a well-deserved rest. Later in the afternoon, you’ll continue descending further to Mweka Camp for the night.

Distance: 6km (3.7 miles) up, 13km (8 miles) down Time: 6-8 hours up, 6-7 hours down Elevation Gain: 1,255m (4,117ft) Elevation Loss: 2,255m (7,398ft)

Day 8: Mweka Camp to Mweka Gate

On your final day, you’ll descend through the forest back to Mweka Gate, where your trek officially ends. At the gate, you’ll be presented with your summit certificates, commemorating your achievement. From there, you’ll be transferred back to your hotel in Moshi for a well-deserved celebration.

Distance: 10km (6.2 miles) Time: 4-6 hours Elevation Loss: 1,300m (4,265ft)

[musings-of-a-kiwafruit]

Karanga mai,

e te moana o aku tīpuna

Ka huri au, ka rongo ki a Tangaroa

Ka hurihia, ka pūawhehia au e Tāwhiri-mātea

Whakatakina ai aku tātai

———

Call me forth

The ocean of my ancestors

I turn to, I listen to/sense Tangaroa [God of the Ocean]

I am turned and blown about Tāwhiri-mātea [God of the Wind]

In search of my heritage / Reciting my lineage
