The Programme You Hurried Home For

Aotearoa New Zealand · 1980s Some television memories begin before the screen: a bag on the floor, a place claimed on the carpet, the school day finally over. In Aotearoa New Zealand, After School ran through the 1980s. Its first host, Olly Ohlson, brought te reo Māori and sign language into the programme’s everyday world. This AI-created living room celebrates that homecoming ritual; it is not an original broadcast frame. Which programme meant you were home? AI-created imagined scene; not an archival photograph or a record of real people. Sources: NZ On Screen — After School — https://www.nzonscreen.com/all-series/after-school/
