Posted on Monday 24 October 2022

Professor Matt Townend, a long-standing collaborator with sound and light artists Karen Monid and Ross Ashton, advised on the script for their latest ‘Platinum and Light’ installation, currently showing at York Minster until 27th October.

Matt and a team of postdoctoral researchers from the Department of English and Related Literature (Dr Tim Rowbotham, Dr Lauren Stokeld, and Dr Lydia Zeldenrust) also recorded the soundtrack in Old English, Middle English, and Old Norse, supplying the medieval voices for this exciting artwork.
