VIRTUAL TANGIHANGA, VIRTUAL TIKANGA INVESTIGATING THE POTENTIAL AND PITFALLS OF VIRTUALISING MAORI CULTURAL PRACTICES AND RITUALS
2015
Overview
The suffix 'nga' is appended as a plural or indicative of more than one. [...]tikanga can loosely be defined as \"way(s) of doing and thinking held by Maori to be just and correct\" (New Zealand Law Commission 2001, p. 16). Tikanga are also noted in legislation and legal documents pertaining to land (Durie 1996; Mead 2003). [...]the wide-ranging meanings for tikanga reflect the multiplicity of interpretations and applications in the diverse contexts of Maori social life. [...]the framework is informed by my tribal upbringing, which contributes greatly to the way I interpret and make meaning. [...]a Taranaki-centred focus that derives from the prophetic teachings of Te Whiti o Rongomai and Tohu Kakahi in their peaceful fight for freedom (Hohaia, O-Brien, & Strongman, 2001) is important to the framework; this invokes notions of rangimärie and hümärie (peace and good thoughts to all, tranquillity and humility). According to some elders, it is difficult to conceptualize how tapu can be transferred and applied from the physical (or spiritual) space into the virtual and therefore how tikanga can appropriately be practised without being face to face or physically present.
