Engineering relies on precision and detail, as does good writing. ~Flow is working with Dr Viccy Adams from the Newcastle Centre for the Literary Arts, Newcastle University and Buro Happold to commission three writers to produce original work inspired by the engineering behind ~Flow.
The final pieces will be published in the Royal Academy of Engineering journal and in the NCLA online archives.
In order to apply for the commission, you must attend our event on the 18 July 2012.
This will be an introduction to the project. A tour onboard ~Flow from 5pm – 6pm followed by a talk from Andrew Walker of Buro Happold Engineers from 6.30pm at The Minning Institute, Neville Hall, Westgate Road, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE1 1SE. This will be follow by a Q&A session with Andrew.
