  • Haka and Hula Representations in Tourism

The way that haka and hula performances are represented is being tested, as the dynamics of the tourism industry impact upon and influence the art forms. If allowed, these impacts and influences can affect the performances and thus manipulate or change the way that haka and hula are represented. Through an understanding of the impacts and influences of tourism on haka and hula performances, as well as an exploration of the cultures’ values, cultural representations effective existence within the tourism industry can be investigated. This thesis will incorporate the perspectives of haka and hula practitioners and discuss the impacts and influences on haka and hula performances in tourism. The research will also explore and discuss the ways in which cultural values and representations can effectively co-exist within tourism.

  • Ejournal Foreword
    Research in New Zealand Performing Arts: Nga Mahi a Rehia no Aotearoa E-journal Foreword Tena koutou katoa! Over the past several years there have been a great many exciting developments in Aotearoa / New Zealand performing arts. One example is the recent prominence of New Zealand and success of New Zealanders in the realm of mainstream Hollywood blockbuster films, as evidenced by The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Last Samurai, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and others. Such films, have seen this relatively small nation enjoy a profile in a global industry, which is disproportionate to the size of its populace. Of particular note in the case of the film industry are the successes of films based on local stories and culture. With the exception of the biographical, The World’s Fastest Indian (about NZ racer Burt Munro), most of the other NZ films that have done well in the last four years have been primarily based upon the stories, cultures, and experiences of Māori and Pacific Islanders,1 including Whale Rider, No. 2, River Queen, Sione’s Wedding, and the Oscar-nominated short film Two Cars, One Night. All of these have received much critical acclaim at home and abroad, and give some credence to the statement found on the New Zealand Film Commission’s website asserting that “it’s never been so hip to be brown.”2 Keeping in this same vein, if “brown” film, TV, music, dance, etc. have in the past been poorly supported and appreciated by New Zealand and the rest of the world, now, more than ever, it seems the tide has turned and their time has come.

  • The Festivalisation of Pacific Cultures in New Zealand: Diasporic Flow and Identity Within ‘A Sea of Islands’
    The Festivalisation of Pacific Cultures in New Zealand: Diasporic Flow and Identity within ‘a Sea of Islands’ A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Otago Dunedin New Zealand Jared Mackley-Crump 2012 Abstract In the second half of the twentieth century, New Zealand witnessed a period of significant change, a period that resulted in dramatic demographic shifts. As a result of economic diversification, the New Zealand government looked to the Pacific (and to the at the time predominantly rural Māori population) to fill increasing labour shortages. Pacific Peoples began to migrate to New Zealand in large numbers from the mid-1960s and continued to do so until the mid-1970s, by which time changing economic conditions had impacted the country’s migration needs. At around this time, in 1976, the first major moment of the festivalisation of Pacific cultures occured. As the communities continued to grow and become entrenched, more festivals were initiated across the country. By 2010, with Pacific peoples making up approximately 7% of the population, there were twenty-five annual festivals held from the northernmost towns to the bottom of the South Island. By comparing the history of Pacific festivals and peoples in New Zealand, I argue that festivals reflect how Pacific communities have been transformed from small communities of migrants to large communities of largely New Zealand-born Pacific peoples. Uncovering the meanings of festivals and the musical performances presented within festival spaces, I show how notions of place, culture and identity have been changed in the process. Conceiving of the Pacific as a vast interconnected ‘Sea of Islands’ kinship network (Hau’ofa 1994), where people, trade, arts and customs have circulated across millennia, I propose that Pacific festivals represent the most highly visible public manifestations of this network operating within New Zealand, and of New Zealand’s place within it.

    TEURIKORE BIDDLE The Mediation of Tikanga in Haka Competition Introduction [M]ajor and significant changes can occur on the surface level of a cultural system without alterations to its more fundamental metaphysical assumptions. These surface changes require a process of remodeling through which they are reconciled with the lower level assumptions. Through this process of reconciliation the cultural system returns to an ordered and coherent whole (as cited in Mead, 2003, p.351). There is today a lot of activity in the area of indigenous performance. For example kapa haka is a mainstay for most Māori enthusiasts of Māori performance. This is most evident by the number of passive and active participants in past regional and national haka competitions. What is striking about kapa haka is the manner in which tradition is mediated on the stage. In the quote above Witherspoon (1977) cited in Mead (2003) suggests significant changes to culture can occur while simultaneously maintaining the fundamentals of the culture. Kapa haka as a living physical expression of culture sits somewhere between ‘traditional’ and ‘competition’ notions of performance. Even as ‘echoes and reflections’ of pre-European Māori performance, kapa haka is viewed by modern Māori as ‘traditional’ performance (Royal, 2004).
