- ItemAgent Provocateur #1, Agent Provocateur #2, Agent Provocateur #3, FocusMacgregor, H; Blas, Z; Bridle, J; Cirio, P; Denny, S; Lozano-Hemmer, R; Pater, R; Te Tau, TThe Surveillance Awareness Bureau (SAB) created a space for critical discussion about systems of surveillance, and awareness of the issues around privacy, liberty, control and abuse they raised at this time. Featuring some of the alternatives proposed by artists, designers, scholars and journalists, this temporary office aimed to highlight the tension and risks between seeing and not seeing the effects of technologies, and the vulnerability of humans in a space of "control framed by usual unawareness". Produced and curated by Modelab, the project brought together a range of international and New Zealand contributors with a public programme: Hemi Macgregor (NZ), Simon Denny (Venice Biennale), Terri Te Tau (NZ), Zach Blas (USA), James Bridle (UK), Paolo Cirio (IT/USA), Rafael Lozano-Hemmer (MEX), and Ruben Pater (NL). I re-exhibitied four works from 'Remote Control' (NRO 2). 'Agent Provocateur #1', 'Agent Provocateur #2', 'Agent Provocateur #3' and 'Focus'.

- ItemDiptych SouthFebvre-Richards, ER; Merlino, D; Lux Light Festival PanelDiptych South is an audiovisual project that explores the physiological effects of the rhythms of colour and music in relation to memory and place. It questions the nature of our memory and connection to place by playing with repetition and difference. The two video pieces for the work are almost identical and are inspired by Febvre-Richards’ regular ‘journeying’ in the New Zealand forest. The repetition of such journeys – the memories and anticipations, the expectation of familiar sensorial experiences – provides rich inspiration for mark making on paper. There is a potentially static nature to this representation, which may convey a momentary sense of place but cannot capture the experiential journey to and through the forest. This problem is ameliorated by the reworking into video form. It is here that the temporal interplay between past as memory plays with the present as experience and the future as anticipation. However, not every experience is identical. To explore the nature of the difference of these temporal experiences, Merlino has provided two contrasting sound pieces that are not juxtaposed with the video work, but rather attempt to show how the experiential sameness of the video actually inspires difference and uniqueness. It is the sameness of our sense of place that inspires a variety of affective responses, thus dispelling the idea that our experiences, when tinged with memory and anticipation, must always remain the same.

- ItemHolistic approach to online learning: Providing a scaffold for learners(Flipped Learning Global, 17/07/2020) Green J; Burrow MThe COVID-19 global pandemic necessitated rapid changes to teaching strategies in higher education. Moving an undergraduate nursing course from the traditional classroom to fully online created interesting challenges. Because much of our teaching content was already designed for the flipped learning environment (FLE), we were able to adapt to a virtual face-to-face (VFF) experience that reached every student with very little disruption to the FLE. To ensure a successful rapid pivot we prepared our students to ‘go live’ in our online classroom by offering a small, social, Virtual Happy Hour event for 112 students in the week prior to our classes resuming.

- ItemMonster(Overland, 1/06/2015) Makereti TRM; Gracewood, JWhy look to fiction to take the temperature of a country? You might as well ask the canary to issue a detailed report into working conditions in the coalmine. The task of the writer is to sing her own song, which may be entirely at odds with the atmosphere in which she finds herself. And yet: these three stories alert us to something in the air in Aotearoa New Zealand. The barometer swings, conditions change, and people are buffeted by circumstance, challenged by fresh strangeness. The location of each story is absolutely local – we know where we are – but the threat is diffuse, worldly, universal. As always, it’s an interesting time to be a writer in New Zealand. We are all luminaries now, writing not in the shadow but by the light of Eleanor Catton’s brilliant success, which blazes like a signal fire on the beach. Not a problem, to use the vernacular. We’ve been here before, with Katherine Mansfield’s ‘little lamp’, and we’ll be here again. Engaging the world beyond our shores, tangling with its cultural economies, and then plunging back into the hinterland, the harbour, the bare cupboard, mining our own dark past – and present and future – for literary gold.
- ItemOn The Fence : Design & Democracy ProjectKane, KW; Parkin, T; Robinson, C; Stowers, KOn the Fence is a web tool designed to assist young undecided and first-time voters to make informed electoral choices and transform disengaged youth into active civic participants. Users indicate how they feel about a selection of issues statements, to find out which parties or candidates most closely reflect their values. On The Fence is: Social and shareable: sparks conversations about politics Approachable: playful and easy to understand Adaptable and scalable: responsive to culture and context Educational: introduces youth to issues Collaborative: connects to other voter engagement initiatives Responsive: accessible from any device Super smart: innovative algorithm uses expert political analysis responsive to political positioning. Voter participation has been declining in the Western world, particularly amongst young people who don’t see politics as addressing issues they care about and struggle to cut through party-political tribalism, rhetoric and spin. Voter participation has been declining in the Western world, particularly amongst young people who don’t see politics as addressing issues they care about and struggle to cut through party-political tribalism, rhetoric and spin. But young people are far from apathetic: they volunteer, campaign online, want to make a difference and make values-based choices. Young people want non-partisan information about their political options and the confidence that their vote aligns with their values. On the Fence is a proven concept; in New Zealand’s 2014 General Election it was successful in encouraging 30,000 non-voting 18-34 year olds to vote, representing 7% of the total eligible youth population, at a cost of $1.13USD per voter. The New Zealand experience has yielded a wealth of data, insights and user feedback that will contribute to further development of On The Fence in an international context. We have assembled a team of expert designers, web developers, and researchers, and are partnering with Stanford University as we look to scale up for the US. On The Fence is a product of the Design & Democracy Project, a research unit at Massey University’s College of Creative Arts (New Zealand) with a track-record of enhancing the role that design and design thinking has to play in 21st century citizenship. The team is built around a core group of researchers, advisors and mentors from the University. We work in partnership with industry, Government, and the social sector to harness the technology that has made it easier than ever to access information, connect, and communicate ideas, in order to re-engage citizens with the political process. For the On The Fence initiative, the Design & Democracy Project is working in partnership with Springload, a pioneering New Zealand web design and user experience agency equipped to deliver mission-critical projects at scale. The Project is situated within Massey University’s Open Lab, a space established to harness and develop the design expertise of students and graduates via active collaboration between academia and business.
- ItemOngoing Matter: The Gayle Karch Cook CenterMurnieks A; Berry A; Martin S; Edlefson B; Kaufman J; Bourgeois M; Walters K; Barahona R; Barness J; Burton M; Dorsey K; Rutherford S; Visocky O’grady J; Visocky O’grady KOngoing Matter encourages engagement with the Report On The Investigation Into Russian Interference In The 2016 Presidential Election, or, as it is more colloquially known, the Mueller Report. These contemporary poster designs seek to make the Report accessible, and thus make the possibility of genuine, thoughtful, and passionate engagement with its findings possible. The show illuminates the major threats to democracy cited in the Mueller Report. The collection has travelled to several venues, including the Krasl Art Center in St. Joseph, Michigan, and Cleveland State University Galleries in Cleveland, Ohio. A living showcase of current political artefacts, Ongoing Matter seeks to empower citizens at a crucial moment in the democratic experience (post-2020 presidential elections). As graphic designers, the artists in this exhibition consider their charge one of emancipation: using the art of communication to reveal, persuade, and propel action. This project is non-partisan; even if the audience has varied ideologies, the ultimate goal is to energize citizens to participate in their own democracy. Ongoing Matter is concerned with preserving democracy, protecting integrity, and sharing knowledge.
