  Bob Dylan, No Direction Home

  A two-part music radio special that traces the life of Bob Dylan and his impact on 20th-century American popular music and culture, with exclusive music, interviews and other content from his personal archives

  The project began to take shape in 1995 when Dylan's manager, Jeff Rosen, began scheduling interviews with Dylan's friends and associates. Among those interviewed are poet Allen Ginsberg and folk musician Dave Van Ronk, both of whom died not long after this programme was completed. Dylan's old girlfriend Suze Rotolo also granted a rare interview (1) (Joyride Media)

  MEEHAN: These Rough Notes, An Evocation of Antarctica

  Had we lived I should have had a tale to tell of the hardihood, endurance and courage of my companions which would have stirred the heart of every Englishman. These rough notes and our dead bodies must tell the tale (Robert Falcon Scott)

  Drawing its title from one of the last pages of Scott's journal, this collaboration between the poet Bill Manhire, composer Norman Meehan and singer Hannah Griffin remembers the tragedies of Scott's polar expedition in 1912 and the crash of NZ901 into Mt Erebus in 1979. The collaboration also included images of Antarctica by Anne Noble, drawn from the series of Antarctic work she has been making since 2001 (recorded in Soundings Theatre, Te Papa, Wellington by RNZ)
