It's officially our Carhartt WIP Audio Archives day! We've opened up the lounge doors to invite the public in for the whole day, with live performances and radio until 11pm! You can also watch the day livestreamed here. E whai ake nei, coming up on the 95bFM Breakfast show with Rosetta and Milly; Fahsun with Penelope Noir, a kōrero with the good folk of The Weed Eaters about their Big Forking Tour, Just What The DoC Ordered, and a live set from MOKOTRON! Whakarongo mai nei!
We continue with The Enchanted Wood, have a chat with Capt. Festus McBoyle about his new song and new solo show, and we make it to 17 on the pancake count.
To finish up the week in fine style, we have Psychick Witch brewing up some impromptu harsh noise for Fancy New Band, and then later in the show The Veils' frontman Finn Andrews comes up to the studio for a chat about his brand new solo tune 'Love, What Can I Do'.
This week, Taarati Taiaroa spoke with us about Toi Tū Toi Ora: Contemporary Māori Art, the largest exhibition in Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki's 132 year history. Taarati, assistant curator of Māori art at AAG, discussed the exhibition's development and conceptual propositions. Later on we had a conversation with Natasha Ratuva and Hōhua Ropate Kurene about Inside the wave are ocean bodies, their exhibition on Tautai Contemporary Pacific Arts Trust's Moana Wall.
