After all the performing going on, I think Sue just couldn t hold it in anymore. She decided the hosts must perform in thanks for the evening s entertainment. Then Sue, the Maori woman you will see running the show here, got everyone lined up and led them all in an action song for our enjoyment. The first time through is for the group to learn it, the second time through is the performance. And enjoy we did! I don t know what would happen to anyone trying to refuse. I don t think anyone can say no to Sue. She s a beautiful soul, and boy, what a voice! By the way, the woman in red on screen left is Mahinekura the way I will always remember her.

In June 2006 I spent over a week as a guest at the Puniho Pa marae in the Taranaki region of Aotearoa (New Zealand). No internet access and limited electricity, combined with the great opportunity to get to know people every evening, made it seem silly to sit in a corner editing video every night. So some moments are still sitting on my hard drive, waiting to be shared. On June 27, 2006, these two Maori boys reminded me how easy it is to enjoy the passing of time with no technology at hand. Well, except my video camera of course! You can see my friend Mahinekura in the background - she s the woman wearing red. Going through footage from Puniho Pa brought so many great moments and feelings straight back into my heart. I ll be sharing some of them with you on and off during the rest of December.

My friend Mahinekura Reinfeld died a few days ago. She s a woman I will never forget. Ever.

Download Ta Moko with Rangi Kipa For my seventh video during Videoblogging Week 2007, I m showing you something really special to me. It s video from when I received my moko in June of 2006. I was in the Taranaki region Aotearoa as part of an intercultural exchange. I handed my good friend Wendy my video camera and she captured the experience for me. This was a very personal experience that s hard to put into words. I have been interested in ta moko for a long time. I have a couple of tattoos, but never felt they were a true and deep expression of myself. Mahinekura Reinfeld arranged for us to meet the artist who designed her moko, Rangi Kipa. Mahinekura explained that instead of picking out something pre-designed, Rangi works by listening to you tell a story about yourself, which he translates into Maori iconography, and that he aligns his artwork with the muscle and skeleton structure of your body. She believes he channels from the spiritual realm as he works. (So do I.) She told us about her own preparations for receiving her moko, including spending three days fasting and purifying herself in a sacred place. Since I knew I would have the opportunity to receive moko I decided to fast for three days and meditate as much as I could during our busy schedule. With the exception of Wendy, I didn t tell my travel-mates I was doing this. I didn t want to dramatize it. I wanted to honor this tradition. And it s a good thing I did. I waffled about what story I would tell, but on the third day, a mere hour before we were to meet Rangi, the story came to me, and I knew it was right. I m not sure that would have happened without my fast. For those tattoo artists and aficionados who copy Maori designs, all I can say is don t. Ta moko is a highly personal, spiritual process. Stealing a design is crass identity theft, and totally inappropriate. It is more than worth your time, resources and energy to do it properly by working with a Maori artist. Speaking of which, Rangi Kipa will be in the U.S. during May. At least I hope he will. Keep your eyes open for his visit, and come support his art.
