For the Yorkshire Festival 2016, two of the county’s most renowned artists, composer Gavin Bryars and poet Blake Morrison, joined forces to create a new audio work to be experienced on the stopping train journey from Goole to Hull.

The Swarm published the Podcast for the project - and it's a beautiful piece no matter where you listen.

Our friends at IFlab hosted a few sessions this year at Mozfest - and held a project incubator to coincide with this weekend mash up of storyteller and code. On the Monday they invited the Swarm to be part of a panel of digital professionals to hear the results of their work. Five exciting iDoc ideas were pitched, all using the internet to tell their story in a unique way, all great potential for further development. We wish them the best in getting their projects produced!! www.iflab.eu
