A little while back I was contacted by Alex Robins as he and others were involved in an Arts Project centred round the North Hessary Tor Transmitter site in Devon, England.<\/p>\n

The web page for the Arts Centre is here: https:\/\/www.thenorthwall.com\/whats-on\/north-hessary\/<\/a><\/p>\n

There is a link on the page describing how their project was executed and what was involved in compiling all the information required for their on-line experience. Click here to read<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I was pleased to have been able to assist them in some background information as to what can be found inside a transmitting station.<\/p>\n

The culmination of their work was the creation of a video game and it is here on this link<\/p>\n
