Mihi by Word Is The Word

September 22nd, 2012 8:28 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: In Maori culture, when you formally introduce yourself in a meeting house it is called a "Mihi". You tell people your canoe, tribe, sub-tribe and family, but you ALSO identify specific geological features to which you "belong". For example, "your" lake, mountain, river, forest etc.

Chose at least three geographical features that you consider "yours". Document them.

These 3 "geographical" locations are mine!

I kind of like this interpretation. Its proprietary nature kind of opposes what I believe the author wanted to see. It shows how the task is contradictory in first asking for places you belong to, then changing to the places that belong to you.
