This Polynesian expression, used to designate the Internet, is one of many powerful poetic testimonies to the living culture of the Maori people of Aotearoa – New Zealand. Polynesian cosmogony vividly shows how a collectively shaped and transmitted narrative can offer cognitive handles to those seeking meaning amidst the chaos of complex worlds.

Sun, 23 Nov 2008 09:54:42 GMT Symposium 2009: Interconnections http://www.intercreate.org/view/discursive http://www.intercreate.org/view/discursive How might the elusive ‘crop circle’ phenomenon be circumnavigated via contemporary art theoretical discourses? Why is this phenomenon currently unrepresented in such discourses? What problems do the particularities of the phenomenon pose for their consideration through discourse? Can the ongoing contestability of the crop circles’ authorship as human or ‘non-human’ produce expanded conceptions of the phenomenon? What is the phenomenon’s relationship to multidisciplinary research and critical artistic practice, including that connected to Aotearoa New Zealand?
