Jenna's just read Interior Chinatown by Charles Yu and highly recommends it. If Charles' work on HBO series, Westworld, isn't enough to entice you to read this book, perhaps winning the Fiction prize in the National Book Awards for 2020 will.
This week the arts community has been remembering Nanette Cameron, who passed away aged 95. She's been dubbed "Aotearoa’s preeminent interior designer" by arts organisation Objectspace, "instrumental in the flourishing of interior design practice in Tāmaki Makaurau and nationally." Her passing has been met with tributes, gratitude and aroha for a woman who is described by those who met her as formidable, a sweetheart and everything in between. To hear more about her life Frances caught up with retired director of Objectspace, Philip Clarke, who was director of Objectspace when they staged the major exhibition and published the publication Nanette Cameron: Interior Design Legend in 2013.
Oto and Jaycee spoke with Tāmaki Makaurau singer-songwriter, Reia Guess, and played 2 hours of music by singer songwriters and dreampop artists from the Asian diaspora.
New music today from CRYER, plus a couple of ravey tunes for those who like speedy techno.
I was also joined by Andre of HEAVY CHEST(solo/unplugged) in the studio ahead of the band's Tāmaki show at The Tuning Fork(shoutout) this Saturday! Chur and thank you for playing some unreleased tunes for us also :~)
