Bullet point notes from Week 4

  • ask auckland’s what one they want to do in wellington would be
  • taking a play on the wind and turning it into something humorous
  • also taking in on the idea of tick that box as
  • wind being the unseen representation of wellington even though we have a lot of wind turbines we can not seem them from within the city as they are behind the hills and valleys 
  • wind, culture and arts, tick that box
  • idea of the website of being able to take people along the website to trendy and hipster spots in wellington
  • wellington city is within walking distance of everything so money and time efficient 
  • watch I❤️NY video on Vimeo
  • don’t be apologetic but be confident, don’t buy into stereotypes and go beyond and ask what they think about wellington 
  • creating a experience for wellington than more about creating a product for wellington 
  • culture is always an image of culture, a culture is a continuous thing that is always moving 
  • try and not to focus on wellington and explore things that are unknown to us as wellington for research to find a new narrative approach to this. 
  • williams reading 
  • nzers are one of the friendliest countries 
  • if there’s no people then there’s no wellington and if there’s no people then there is no creativity and no wellington 
  • when did wellington become more creative and less political, what critical events happened for this change to occur in wellington. 



  • political - art being a balance scale of each thing 
  • for wellington there is more local culture as for christchurch there is more imported culture being in their city 
  • wellington has developed culture through the years 
  • balance is important within a city and wellington does it quite well
  • look into how a logo sticks and if it works. look into i<3NY and if the people of new york stand behind it 
  • the history of nz being colonisted is a sad history and thus is very modest in stuff but from outsiders perspective out of nz we don’t seem that modest as we are very proud and confident within sporting 
  • move away from the conventional 
  • think about who we watch to attract to wellington? 
  • the feeling of a time for finishing, the time where shops all close but on late nights they are opened later compared to other cities.
  • pollution and commuting distance 
  • look into wellington going to international as with the new runway being set up
