    • Still hovering around some local cinemas – and the longest-delayed of all my outstanding reviews – Still Mine is a surprisingly effective Canadian drama about an elderly man (James Cromwell, 73 but playing a fit 89) determined to build a new house for his wife (Geneviéve Bujold) before her memory deserts her completely.

    Orchestra Wellington and MIXT Create Groundbreaking Virtual...

    • 20 Mar 2018
    • Orchestra Wellington
    • Orchestra Wellington and MIXT Create Groundbreaking Virtual Reality Conductor Experience In a world first, Orchestra Wellington and Wellington interactive company MIXT are offering up the best seat in the house, although you won’t want to sit down!The world premiere of the Virtual Conductor Experience is launching at the CubaDupa Festival on Saturday 24th March from 12pm, open to the public and free of charge.If you stop by its shipping container installation on Leeds Street,the orchestra promises you a mind-blowing virtual arts experience,regardless of whether you’re eight or 80. Along with audio recorded by RNZ Concert, the 360° filming, editing and interactions were done by Wellington VR/AR specialists, MIXT, and puts the viewer at the centre of a symphony orchestra experience, and brings all the emotion of a multi-sensory challenge.“The finished product immerses you into the world of the symphony conductor, standing on the podium to lead a 90 piece orchestra as they perform the powerful Rite of Spring by Igor Stravinsky in front of a full 2000 person live audience,” says Orchestra Wellington’s Marketing Manager and project co-ordinator Marek Peszynski.Orchestra Wellington was an award winner in 2016 with its New Zealand made 360° video. With MIXT’s help, Peszynski believes it’s gone one better with the world’s first virtual orchestra video with a full live audience.“We wanted to move away from the novelty factor of VR technology by placing the user at the centre of a full live concert. That way the experience really puts people in the moment and feels one hundred percent real and unstaged."“More importantly we can visualise its use after the installation,with its applications in education and in accessibility of music. Butat CubaDupa we’re inviting everyone to step up and take the challenge,because once you’ve tried it you’re hooked."Following its CubaDupa release, the 360° virtual concert will launch for free home use later this month and its makers believe its appeal will extend beyond the city’s many lounge-room conductors.

    • Katherine Mansfield, one of New Zealand’s greatest writers, left New Zealand for good in 1908. Before doing so, she threw a leaving party and invited all her friends. The party had many of her favourite ingredients: live music, good company, food offerings, tea, exquisite gin, parlour games, and elements of the occult and divination.

    • Playing solo or with friends (the Felt Tips), Fraser Ross is a gypsy-folk man. He is a keen lyrics man, and a inter-song banterer. Sometimes he dabbles in ballads, sometimes a quicker rinka-chink. His live shows are rare and exciting, his album (And Birds Do Sing) is brilliant but slow-burning.
