J.T Diamond - An Environmentalist

from Ngā Pātaka Kōrero - Auckland Libraries · host Auckland Libraries

Listen in to this Kura Tūturu | Real Gold track to hear from Sharon Smith, Senior Librarian Community Archives, on J.T Diamond and his deep love and connection to the Waitākere Ranges. As an amateur historian and archaeologist Jack Diamond devoted over 60 years of his life to building a documentary heritage collection. His work provides a complete record of the region’s heavy clay and pottery industries between 1940 and 1980, and the most significant documentary record of the kauri timber industry in the Waitākere Ranges between 1830 and 1940. In this show case and podcast we learn also of his links to the Auckland Tramping Club and Waitākere Ranges Protection Society. Original items can be viewed in the Heritage Collections reading room, Level 2 of Tāmaki Pātaka Kōrero | Central City Library through out January 2022, or via Research West in Henderson for access to the full collection.

Ghibliotheque - A Podcast About Animation and Studio Ghibli Michael Leader, Jake Cunningham & Steph Watts Welcome to the Ghibliotheque, the podcast that leafs through libraries of films from the world’s greatest animation studios.In 2018, Michael Leader, an avowed Studio Ghibli fanatic, sat down with Jake Cunningham, who had never seen any of the Studio’s work before. Together they looked at the history behind Ghibli's films (including Spirited Away, My Neighbour Totoro and Princess Mononoke), and got a critical perspective from Jake as a first-time viewer. They covered all of Studio Ghibli's films, visited Japan on the ultimate Ghibli pilgrimage, and have since interviewed artists, animators and filmmakers who have either worked on or have been deeply inspired by Ghibli's films. With their co-host Steph Watts, they have also branched out to cover filmographies of other studios and filmmakers whose work has revolutionised animation, from Satoshi Kon and Mamoru Hosoda to Cartoon Saloon and Henry Selick.Where will we go next?
