  • Hard News: Together Alone,

    Not sure where I should post this but I am seeking help with a research project. I was approached last week to assist the participation of NZ children in international research on 9 to 13 year olds and their experiences of the current crisis. It is being led by Maya Goetz at IZI, an academic research institution associated with Bavarian Television in Munich, and has 40+ countries involved.
    The online questionnaire is at https://www.soscisurvey.de/izi-corona/ and involves initial parent consent (online), and runs to April 24.
    It would be great to have NZ children participate, to place their experiences beside those of their peers from other countries. They may well enjoy the 20-3o minutes it takes to fill it out. If you have children in this age group (9-13) you are welcome to participate, or pass the message on to friends.
    I have been getting good support from the Office of the Commissioner for Children, and several local schools.
    If you have any questions, feel free to email at geoff.lealand@waikato.ac.nz

    Maya Goetz visited NZ a couple of years ago, and ran workshops for children’s TV producers.

  • Radiation: Spencer Stoner: going with…,

    Probably watched five or more hours of this mesmerising adventure. There were moments when I wanted to see more of the occasional encounters with human occupation eg to pock around or see inside the cluster of deserted buildings on Campbell Island,

    A venture worth supporting: a compilation album to provide financial support for Ivan of the Nivara Lounge, the great music venue in downtown Hamilton.

    The first trip in 8 days outside the gate, to deliver a bag of homegrown bananas and feijoas to a friend’s letterbox. Rode the West Rail Trail which follows the rails and skirts Lake Rotoroa, Rather good.

    My daughter Catherine Rose, who lives and teaches in Shibuya, has been ranting about the casual attitude in Japan to the virus. She has more students to teach and says the company she works for is resisting the idea of paying salaries in the event of closure. In the meantime, her sideline of modelling is on hold.

    Many thanks, Ian. For some reason, my photos refuse to lodge here.

    For a bit of ‘Saturday Excitement’. I have a piece in the latest New Zealand Memories (143, April/May 2020), celebrating the 1950/60s street photography of Les Cleveland. In supermarket magazine sections from Monday, if you are able to get out.
