Not sure if anyone will see this in the amazing sea of toi tu (and as it should be) but last orders for prints for (Pū)oro closing THIS SUNDAY 24TH NOVEMBER puoroexhibition.com

Nau mai ki te ao marama! I have an exhibition of 248 pūtangitangi for sale , as well as a sound track (ororecordsnz.bandcamp.com/al…) and a booklet available for koha at puoroexhibition.com ! All proceeds go towards me being able to turn my PhD thesis on puoro in hauora into a book

Releasing a new body of work tomorrow, excited to finally share what I've been working on. See you very soon...

Super grateful to Neil from @wcl_library for this beautiful video and interview about my new book, 'The Artist' available from @thwupbooks youtube.com/watch?v=irMNEtDE…

Kia ora koutou, 'The Artist' is out today from where all good books are sold. Much love to @thwupbooks, and to all who made theirs mark on this book. Can't wait to hear what you think! x

Wouldn't say she was emerging by any means, but Emma Kitson did an amazing music video for Ariana youtube.com/watch?v=u8yBEefN…

Before any Pākehā have a soft wank about me having heaps of time, or about Māori having kids young, I'm 27 next month, and also, fuck off. My life expectancy isn't too awesome, and I've spent 23 years of it in school under people like those described above.

For all those Kāi Tahu whanau heading to Hui-a-Iwi this weekend, come and hear about our Waihao Marae whanau research into taonga pūoro in hauora!

Make it make sense

Tune in to Radioactive this morning at 8:10 to hear Michelle Velvin and I talk about our new album, 'Feather Spines' which is out now 🪶
