We\u2019re putting together a special edition of The Vernacularist themed Urban-Rural: The Great Divide?<\/em>\u00a0And it’s wonderful to be back, five years after I worked here\u00a0last. The Depot is\u00a0just as I left off –\u00a0an\u00a0open and welcoming place.<\/p>\n

Our present task is getting stuck into sourcing and assembling the pieces. Creating a good, balanced publication is all about the journey – the conversations, the exploration. It\u2019s interesting to note what often crops up whilst talking to people is based around a sense of place, and how different landscapes resonate. Stereotypes are still touchstones\u00a0– NZ has long been defined by its rural culture. However the urban culture is now a huge part of the modern identity, and we are still finding ways to reconcile the two.<\/p>\n

I’m enjoying these interactions, the research – discovering\u00a0what is happening around the country. The submissions we are receiving already represent a broad range of ideas and perspectives. It\u2019s fantastic to see this, and the ideas expressed\u00a0are both timely and timeless.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll keep you updated on our progress!<\/p>\n
