Ng\u0101 Manu Huna: Live Broadcasts of Kiwi Calls<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This May and June, audiences around the world are invited to enter the nocturnal world of Aotearoa New Zealand\u2019s kiwi. Ng\u0101 Manu Huna<\/em> is a live, two-night broadcast transmitting the calls of North Island Brown Kiwi from a remote valley in Te P\u0113whairangi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project brings together environmental sound, the maramataka (M\u0101ori lunar calendar), conservation science, and contemporary art, offering a rare real-time encounter with one of the world\u2019s most distinctive and widely recognised endangered birds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ng\u0101 Manu Huna<\/em> broadcasts take place in the first two hours of darkness of autumn\u2019s new moons and align with Te Papa Atawhai | Department of Conservation\u2019s annual kiwi call monitoring period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first 2026 livestream will take place on 17 May, 6:00\u20138:00pm NZST (UTC+12)<\/strong>, weather dependent. A second broadcast is planned for 15 June.<\/strong> The project will return annually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
