1:31 Shape Shifting Fashion
Shape-shifting is a conference organised by AUT featuring
local and international guest speakers, academics, and innovators involved in
the world of fashion and textiles. The conference is the first of its kind in
the world, and its function isn't about discussing ways to build brands and to
talk about trends, but a chance to think outside the box; a means to inspire,
network and spark discourse. Sonia Sly talks to Christina Cie about the
Christchurch Earthquake and its impact on clothing and identity for the
community at large, US artist Nick Cave takes his 'body' of work into
extraordinary musical and performing heights with 'sound suits' and Co-Director
Andreas Mikellis discusses the way in which the notion of 'fashion' is changing
and the importance of looking to the future.
1:45 Ballet brothers
Brothers Joseph and Nathaniel Skelton are now both members
of the Royal New Zealand Ballet Company. For little brother Joseph, it’s a
miracle he can even walk let alone leap after a nasty skateboarding accident a
few years ago, which Nathaniel helped him through. Now they’re both appearing
in the RNZBC’s touring production of Coppélia. Does sibling rivalry spur them
on?
2:05 The Laugh Track
Scott Blanks previews the upcoming New Zealand Comedy
Festival.
2:26 NZ Crime Writing
Crime pays for a growing number of New Zealand writers. Dr
Jenny Lawn has read more Kiwi crime stories than most, and she says it’s darkly
funny and ingenious in the way people get knocked off here. She’s written a
chapter on NZ Crime Writing for an upcoming new edition of the Oxford History
of the Novel (Oxford University Press).
2:40 Sebastian Hampson
Another young New Zealand writer has scored a publishing
deal with his debut novel. Sebastian Hampson sets his love story, of sorts, in
Paris. The Train to Paris is published by Text.
2:50 Following the dream
New Zealand conductor Ray Chan makes history by being but it
comes at a cost. He’s the first New Zealander accepted into the postgraduate
orchestral conducting studio at the Royal Academy of Music in London and one of
only two conductors accepted into the programme this year from around the
world. Now he needs to raise the cash to fulfil his dream.
3:05 The Drama Hour
A radio version of Renee Lyons’ stage play called Nick: An
Accidental Hero about sportsman Nick Chrisolm who had what is known as ‘Locked
in Syndrome’.
