Turn volume on - The Flow project based on the Tyne near the Millennium bridge. Floating sound form built from wood is a thing of simple beauty. Biult from wood, a floating houseboat, the internal mechanism is driven clockwork like a giant Junior Meccano set it is engineered to very high standards of craftsmanship, Has to be or it would fall over, the waterwheel alone is over 3 metric tonnes in weight. Sensitive to changes in the water chemical levels which change with the tide it produces some quite mesmerising music.
