From dawn 'til dusk, pedestrians walking along Otepoti Dunedin's central George Street, are about to be serenaded by Recordings of Town Belt native manu or birds. Artist Vicki Lenihan made the recordings for a work commissioned by the Dunedin Dream Brokerage as a Platform Project, where artists are invited to brighten up the city's CBD. The $6,000 grant has made the sound installation possible. It opens on February 21. Vicki tells Lynn Freeman that the title - Tu atu, tu mai,- he karaka manu ki ka manuhiri. - is both a metaphor, and a call to action.
