Hello from Cairns in tropical Australia. Welcome to my bit of Brindle Style - Artists Forum and Indymedia Project Bio
Maiia: When your own town has great people. It's an empowered field of potential. The whole world revolves around my home town. Global-television broadcast of year 2000 opened with local singer Dame Kiri Te Kanawa -that's the sort of place I come from. Aotearoa (N.Z) and Gisborne - First City of the Sun. I now live in Australia
I'm a Celtic, German, Maori - putting all those Great grandparents in one room, all those ancestors in one field of consciousness makes for a unique perspective.
"I make my promise Uncle Sam, to bind the new world's top and bottom with light. The telling of our stories will bring history to the world we build... we must fix the stories with firmness and solder the knots with purpose so that they become part of the narratives - the foundations walls and roof all peoples tell about each other."-Witi Ihimaera
"I can't be who I am, and I'm not going to be who you tell me to be. So I'll just be nothing. I'll be something else. I'll erase the pain and I'll just do what I have to, to get through but I won't become you" - John Trudell
