Matariki - “Tihi maunga ki te tihi maunga”

from Ngā Pātaka Kōrero - Auckland Libraries · host Auckland Libraries

Kia ora and welcome to this Matariki Korero from the Auckland Libraries Heritage Collections podcast archive. Listen to this fascinating commentary in te reo Māori and also in English with Robert Eruera, Poukokiri Taonga Tuku Iho Māori, who delved into the Auckland Libraries Heritage Collection and selected a letter that was written by Tainui rangatira, Rewi Maniapoto to the government of the day. Robert talks about how in these letters, Rewi uses the symbols of Matariki to assert rangatiratanga (self-determination) and mana by way of written word from one “tihi maunga” (chief) Rewi to another “tihi maunga” (chief) the Government. Rewi Maniapoto, c1870, Letter to the Government, GNZMA 715 kura.aucklandlibraries.govt.nz/digital/c…031/rec/2 First recorded and published at Matariki 2020.

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?
