title: Openness and the Intellectual Commons

authors: Peters, Michael A.

abstract: ‘Openness’ is one of the central contested values of modern liberal society and falls under different political descriptions. In this chapter I employ ‘openness’ to signal and introduce a new spatialization, interconnectivity, mobility, personalization and globalization of learning and education.

title: Pedalling on: An autoethnographical journey of creative discovery

authors: Dunlop, Jonathan

abstract: My research is about exploring ways to use the sustain pedal in works by CPE Bach, JC Bach, 
Haydn and Mozart specifically. During their lifetimes, pedalling was considered to be a novelty 
on the fortepiano and was not seriously notated in the detailed style of later composers such as 
Beethoven and Schumann. 

The thesis explores ways to use the sustain pedal in keyboard works by CPE Bach, JC Bach, 
Haydn and Mozart, and also early Romantic Period composers like Beethoven, Schumann and 
Schubert. This artistic exploration is shaped and documented using an autoethnographic 
methodology, and the repertoire showcased in each recital is a mix of solo and chamber music. 
At the centre of this research is Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach’s treatise on keyboard playing 
entitled Essay on the True Art of Playing Keyboard Instruments from 1753. In it, Bach states 
that “the undamped register of the pianoforte is the most pleasing and, once the performer 
learns to observe the necessary precautions in the face of its reverberations, the most delightful 
for improvisation.

title: Takitoru: creative practice toward the development of a trilingual dramaturgical kaupapa

authors: Lodge, Alexandra Rose Pittaway

subjects: theatre

abstract: I have focused on writing a play in the three languages of Aotearoa: New Zealand Sign Language, te reo Māori, and NZ English. Through the development of this script with three actors I have found techniques for performance and workshopping to encourage multilingual creative practice for a playwright. Through case studies of playwrights doing similar work at an international level, I have synthesised analytical and creative research into a final script and summary of my dramaturgical findings.
Through creative practice in scriptwriting and developmental workshops, this research explores what story-telling modes, devices or styles seem particularly apt for conveying an inclusive and engaging trilingual narrative on stage.
This specifically involves developing a dramaturgical set of insights for others who may want to do cross-language performance in Aotearoa.
