Archæology

The assorted finds of Artefact Publishing

Shaped by geography

Now that I live in Karori and work at home and at university, the scope of my movements has greatly lessened. In the short time since moving from Hataitai, I have noticed that on the few occasions that I’ve descended into town that it feels rather different. It has become a place that I visit only for its own sake, rather than as a place that is also part of normal travel to other destinations.

In other words, I feel like a visitor there, that it is a world I step occasionally into but which isn’t native to me (nor I to it).

Nowt so queer as folk, I guess.

Oh, so strange when that happens, eh? I remember working at the university and living in Norway St, and when I occasionally ventured into town it seemed full of suits and commercialism.
