He aha te mea nui o te ao? He tangata, he tangata, he tangata.
PhD student Ivy Taia has created a mobile app that represents a digital memory treasure box based on the concepts of Māori mnemonic aids.
The app uses augmented reality features, and was created as part of Ivy's Master's thesis.
The app aims to help people who have suffered traumatic brain injury with memory recollection, from a unique aspect of cultural awareness in New Zealand.
This research explores design concepts of traditional Māori cultural artifacts and techniques.
Together with her supervisors, Ivy published her work in the MAI journal.
