	Culture of New Zealand - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This is observable in the common belief that kiwiana, a category of kitsch 1950's-style artifacts, is the defining cultural touchstone.
		Perhaps one of the more memorable protests at the high culture vs. popular culture divide was the 1980 song "Culture" by The Knobz after outspoken Prime Minister Sir Robert Muldoon stated that New Zealand pop music was not part of the New Zealand cultural scene.
		It was registered as a trademark in 1980, but the originator did not complete the registration which left the name to become available for general use in New Zealand.

		- To understand Kiwiana, it’s important to first know what exactly a kiwi is. A kiwi is a flightless nocturnal native bird, and the national bird of New Zealand.
		There is a ‘kiwi’ sense of humour, a kiwi ‘do-it-yourself’ attitude, and Kiwiana means the things that contribute to our sense of being Kiwi.
		But it’s not just the bright red and yellow colours that make Buzzy Bee so attractive to Kiwis, who are far more used to the greens and browns of their native bush.

		The town has also commissioned a series of Kiwiana murals that are now part of the streetscape.
		The ultimate in kiwiana is celebrated in festival form in March of each year, and boasts quintessentially Kiwi entertainment and events.

		As we’ve become more global we use kiwiana to establish a national identity.
		People/services/ideas are intangible; this makes it both harder to remember and harder to identify similar associations for different people.
		Kiwiana in the future May keep growing — new cultures contributing, time adding more things Generational change — perceptions of kiwiana will change Some stuff might drop off radar — ‘old kiwiana’?
