He also contributes to Audio Culture Iwi Waiata - The Noisy Library of New Zealand Music. Martyn was chosen as the editor of the Encore exhibition companion publication One More Song: Stories From The Stage.
In this publication, he interviewed five local musicians (Bic Runga, LEAO, Half Queen, Miho Wada and Julie Park) about significant experiences on stages and in venues. A free copy of this publication will be available to all people attending this talk.

Hun Lynch’s work spans music, film, theatre, and writing. Her practice is expansive and deeply personal with the sound fluctuating between moments of spiritual grandeur and existential fragility. Sycophant her 2026 self-produced album was mixed at Auckland’s Roundhead Studios with engineer Paddy Hill and distils her creative vocabulary into a sound that is as theatrical and poetic as it is intimate
