The Manus Recording Project Collective's work how are you today? is a collaboration between six men detained on Manus Island, Papua New Guinea and Australian radio-makers Michael Green and Jon Tjhia. Audio recordings by Farhad Bandesh, Behrouz Boochani, Samad Abdul, Shamindan Kanapathi, Kazem Kazemi and Abdul Aziz Muhamat give listeners 10 minute long sonic windows into life in detention. Kim will ask Michael Green and Jon Tjhia about the challenges of the project and how the men are doing now. how are you today? is on at the City gallery, Wellington as part of the Eavesdropping show until Nov 17.
