“…Consider the following scenario: I read A's work, and then I am jettisoned into a completely different line of thinking, to such an extent that perhaps A's work is not discernible in mine. The prompt for thinking (Mika & Southey, 2016) might simply be a style of writing, a single word orand more conventionallyit could be an idea. Especially in doctoral work in the Humanities, interview data might provide the push (Southey, 2020).…”

“…But if you look at some of our genealogies, you will see ‘whakaaro’ appearing in them. This suggests that whakaaro itself is not free from thinghood (Mika and Southey 2018). In that case, the paving-the-way-of-all-phenomena-as-things, that I mentioned earlier, also has thinghood.…”

Thinking and writing draw on those who have gone before, in a more than abstract way. In this article, I answer the call of one philosopher–Novalis, the early German Romantic–in the form of a séance, which is really a dialogue with the dead. I speak to him, as a Maori writer, about the abstract philosophical issues that Maori encounter and anticipate his responses and his thinking. I suspect Novalis would have taken delight in this sort of a-rational event, especially with his own tendency to focus on the supernatural and invisible realms. He revered the dead and darkness. He was an interdimensional communicator par excellence, and my aim in this article is to speculate alongside him and, as a Maori writer, form some productive ideas in community with him.

“…I try to give as much freedom as I feel I can without losing the direction I intend to point performers in. Vā combined with improvisation also injects a healthy dose of uncertainty into the music, which, as we have heard Carl Mika say, is essential to whakaaro (Mika 2018).…”

Composing with the World: A Pākehā Approach

<p>This practice-led exegesis asks how as a Pākehā (white settler New Zealander) composer I might engage with the whenua (land) of Aotearoa New Zealand in an ethical fashion, taking into account local histories of colonisation and imperialism. It examines contemporary Euro-American-influenced compositional listening practices in comparison with recent developments in Māori compositional approaches and attempts to develop a practice that learns from both traditions. A relational and more-than-human minded practice is established by examining the work of five white settler composers from Aotearoa, Australia and the USA as well as four composers from a Māori tradition based in Aotearoa. As part of this research seven compositions have been written and presented publicly as performances, audio recordings and video works. The research suggests a new approach to Pākehā composition, one that relies on an embodied relationship with the world and an ethical relationship with Māori.</p>
