Hey everyone,
Kia Ora,
I'm getting really excited about my iminent adventures in the sunny Aotearoan Islands.
I'll be ariving in New Zealand towards the end of this month.
I'll be based in Christchurch but will have a vehicle and a burning desire to travel.
So the big questions are, who wants to meet up and are there any events i need to know about. I'll be around for ages, indefinitely that is. My brother should be applying for residency in less than a year and i may do the same, who knows.
Plan is to get a nice 4wd van, always wanted a landrover 101 and i think i might indulge myself
I really want to meet some maoris and see what traditional poi is all about. I'd love to learn more about the origins of it all. I'm sure there is lots to learn. Of course i'll be able to do workshops on some of the more contemporary stuff. Wibbling, tangles and boxes spring to mind. I want to learn the persussion side of it as well as the meanings behind it.
So is there a lot of poi spinners in christchurch, what's the scene like? I'm assuming there must be since it's the home of home of poi
Is it all fire based or are there lots of sock spinners? Do you throw your poi much or keep hold? How do maoris feel about all the 'contemporary' spinners in the west? Is it mainly a female thing, or do men do it too? So many questions....
Do you reckon poiple would be up for some payed tuition? I want to teach and perform more since i've been getting RSI and have spent too many years at my pc.
I'd love to see some traditional shows, i'm fully set up to make professional quality films for web or dvd. I'm sure there's lots of poiple round here that wanna see more traditional dances. Definitely get in touch if you are interested in any form of video making. Not necessarily poi, i'm interested in all the sphercular arts.
I've heard that there are set dances that tell specific stories. But i don't really know that much about it. What is it all about?
Aroha nui,

Hey spherculist,
I just happened to come across your note about coming to NZ! That sounds great. My name is Dan and I live in Dunedin, about 5 horus south on Christchurch. Anyways a crew of us down here are holding a fire performance retreat/ workshops, which will be alot of fun! Anyone can come from beginners to pros.
Here is the blurb:
Fire Retreat -----22-24 November ----
This three day event offers workshops on fire staff, fire poi, juggling, stilt walking and unicycling, and there also will be a workshop on making your own fire gear! On the second night Funk-ani African drummers will accompany Highly Flammable fire performers during a spectacular fire display for the local community. Full accommodation and food included. If you are interested in taking part tickets are $65.
Hope you can make it!!!!!!

I'll definitely hook up with you, a feel a cheeky road trip coming on. I'll definitely have wheels out there... gonna be wicked.
Psycho_lemming: thanks for the link, i'll check it out when i'm not in an interweb cafe...

I'm well up for coming to this retreat either way, see you there

Yeah Valura, see you at uberOz in february. Wasn't really planning on heading to oz so soon but wouldn't miss an uber event for the world.
Looks like i'll be in nz on the 22nd or 23rd november and maybe heading up to this fire retreat, the cost goes up dramatically to arrive there a couple days before so i'm not sure i can make it

Well it might be a bit of a rush to get up there so soon, i'll be gutted to miss it tho, might cost me £200 (which is perhaps NZ$700 i think) extra to get to nz a couple days earlier. hmm, we'll see.
Anyhow, if i don't see you there then i'll meet you soon enough and definitely look forward to a nice little spin jam.

RIght i have my flight booked, leave here on the 14th november and get to christchurch on the 16th.
Definitely heading to that fire retreat in Dunedin, my brother even let me steal his car for a while.
So if anyone needs a ride down there I may be able to help.
I'll do some laid back workshops down there and am really looking forward to it.
I hear Bluecat is already out there so i'm guessing i'll be hooking up with him at some point too. (THIS IS ACTUALLY A COMPLETE LIE, WOOPS, HE'S IN SCOTLAND, BUT WILL BE IN NZ AT SOME POINT)

Sorry i got it wrong Rob isn't there yet...
Charles, i'll get in touch with you when i know what my plans are. I'll probably stick around the south island for a while first. But My brothers girlfriend has a job up on the north island for a while so i might pop up there sooner. Really looking forward to meeting you all.
So my brother (James) says he's seen 1 Landrover 101 ambulance (my dream vehicle) since he's been over there, and that was in a show. So i'm thinking i won't be able to get hold of one.
My other dream vehicle is a Unimog, but they are so increadibly badass that i doubt i'll be able to get hold of one, or afford it.
SO can anyone suggest a good van to look for. Big enough to live in comfortably and 4 wheel drive so i can take the little baby off road. Also any information regarding good vehicle websites to check out or places to go in and around christchurch would be great.
Also is there anyone here who's interested in making any videos? I'll be totally set up out there to produce professional videos, so if you need any promo vids or anything then get in touch. I'll be looking for freelance work out there, i have lots of experience in:
graphic design, branding, flash (design and coding), web, 3d animation, industrial design, advertising, design for print, filming, video editing, and so on.
Nice one, see you soon poiple,
matt

Hey ya,
i'm in Tauranga (somewhere between Rotorua and Auckland for the out of towners :P ) if you're heading up this way PM me and let me know.. i'm keen for some spinning with some new people. I'm just starting to gather a few spinners and players from around here, but it'd be great to have some outside influence!

Well i'm here, hellish jouney involving many screeming babies. But joy of joys i remembered my earplugs.
Great to see my brother again and move into my new room.
Stuff is cheap out here, i'm still a bit delearious, got drunk all the way here then cracked open a celebration bottle of bubbly with james and sarah last night. Then woke up really early today and have been mooching around the botanic gardens and checking out the shops.
CHCH is a really cool place, i reckon i'll like it here.
Brain not reallly working,
PireNix: really looking forward to hanging out and performing with you, think i'll get back into fire meteor and start on rope dart so we can do some cool stuff. How did that little video go down with whoever wanted to see it? We can make a proper one when you're out here as i brought my whole studio with me
Gabe: only saw brisbane airport i'm afraid but sill hook up with you in jan/feb
Speed: I'll be up north at some point and will get in touch when i do, if you are ever near Chch get in touch and we'll go for a spin.

i hear there's a cosmic corner in Dunedin too - is this right? I'll be needing to get some new juggling balls since i'm bound to lose mine on the way in
I'm arriving in NZ on 16th December in Auckland
will there be anything happening around there then? was thinking about maybe staying there for a few days and then heading south.

There's a shop in Christchurch called Cosmic Corner. Lovely people and they'll know where there's any spinning going on.
