In the past few months, following Auckland's long lockdowns, residents saw a boom in graffiti on public structures.  

This has led to a lot of discussion about the artform, and its place in the cultural zeitgeist.

While everyone from artists to politicians to locals agree that graffiti on private residential property is vandalism, the conversation of painting on public structures like bridges and trains has been more divided.

Jack Horsnell spoke with Graffiti artist, CAPO, street art expert, Dr Reuben Woods and Auckland Councillor Shane Henderson to understand why this discussion is taking place. 

On the eve of the pacific forum conference in Suva, the Micronesian island nation of Kiribati announced that it will be pulling out of the inter-governmental organisation. 

This led to the current members entering into a crisis mode to get them to re-join the pact. 

Jack Horsnell spoke to Professor Robert Patman from the University of Otago about the effects of this decision.

In 1922, the tomb of the young king Tutankhamun was uncovered by Archaeologist Howard Carter, led by his patron George Herbert (5th Earl of Carnarvon), opening up widespread interest into Ancient Egypt civilization.

Since then, he has long been suspected of stealing it’s treasures before the tomb was officially opened. These claims have been hard to validify, but a newly discovered letter penned by renowned philologist Sir Alan Gardiner may hold the answer to the questions that have swelled up in the 100 years since the discovery of the tomb.

Gardiner’s letter was never published, but the letter details how Carter compensated his work translating the cave hieroglyphics with a ‘whm amulet’, which was historically used as an offering for the dead.

Despite being told by Carter that the amulet hadn’t originated from the tomb, confirmation came from the then-director of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo Rex Engelbach after testing other finds transported to the museum.

To understand more about the controversy and history surrounding the tomb of Tutankhamun, and the surrounding context, I reached out to University of Auckland Professor Anthony Spalinger to discuss the news and more.

Federated Farmers, DairyNZ and Beef + Lamb NZ are calling for winter grazing regulations to be delayed again.

Intensive winter grazing regulations were meant to come into effect in May 2021, but were initially delayed until May 2022, only to be further delayed to November 2022. SAFE CEO Debra Ashton says the multiple delays have left animals to suffer in cold, wet, and muddy conditions. This has led to questions being raised about animal welfare.

Joe spoke to Emma Brodie, SAFE’s Campaign Officer, on the matter.
