  • What's New in Dunedin
    What’s New in Dunedin November 2018 Cuisine Scene Bay Road Peanut Butter Factory & Café Opens What could improve on having a factory making super fresh peanut butter in Dunedin? Having a café on the factory site – that’s what! Bay Road Peanut Butter has infused the food and beverages menu with seriously local flavour, with Common Ground Espresso, Windy Ridge Milk, toast from Spelt Bakery and jams from Eat with Kate all close at hand. https://www.facebook.com/bayroadnz/ New Ocho Chocolate Factory & Café Opening Soon Already renowned for its range of single-origin craft bean-to-bar chocolate and for running a stylish compact café, Ocho Chocolate moved to a bigger factory space early in 2018. It’s due to open a new shop and café on the site before Christmas, still showcasing the varied flavours of Pacific-grown beans. Ocho is also planning to host tours, delivering a great package of coffee, chocolate and insider’s knowledge. https://ocho.co.nz/ Moiety A revelation in taste, newcomer Moiety is an exciting addition to Dunedin’s funky Warehouse Precinct. The ever-changing menu reads like a list of innovative ingredients and features enticing snack options or a more decadent five-course degustation-style option. It’s impossible to define a particular style of food here, but there is an undercurrent of Japanese flavours that runs throughout the menu and everything is almost religiously based on locally-sourced, seasonal ingredients. https://www.moiety.restaurant/ Ombrellitos Ombrellos has often been lauded as one of Dunedin’s best café bars, with a huge selection of craft beers on tap and a large and varied menu.

  • New Zealand Public Television, Public Service and Everything in Between: the Success and Struggles of New Zealand on Air and Public Television
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by ResearchArchive at Victoria University of Wellington New Zealand Public Television, Public Service and Everything in Between: The Success and Struggles of New Zealand on Air and Public Television By Jonathan McLeod A thesis: Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Media Studies. Victoria University of Wellington 2014. Abstract This thesis explores the contemporary situation of ‘public television’ in New Zealand. As this country’s longest-standing, most significant facilitator of the diverse range of locally-produced programmes that pursue the ‘cultural identity’ objectives that are regarded as centrally important to ‘public television’, the focus of this thesis will be on the role and contributions of public broadcast funding agency, New Zealand on Air. This focus has three main functions in this thesis, allowing it to: first, investigate the necessity of facilitating and producing ‘public television’; second, to explore the successful ways in which this element of television has been delivered to viewers; and third, to examine the limitations posed by a highly commercial broadcast television environment on the pursuit of ‘public television’ objectives. This undertaking is important because ‘public television’ faces a number of significant challenges in New Zealand, the most significant of which is inadequate public investment. Other challenges can be sourced to the intense competition and inadequate regulation of New Zealand television, which is a consequence of the deregulation and restructuring that it was subjected to in 1988-89. In the decades since, the broader environmental conditions encouraged by these changes have never been redressed.
