cockermouth
My postcards is about where I live in Cockermouth and these are my original pictures I took and will collarge it with photography and ilustrations.
Cockermouth owes it existence to the river system. The nearby Roman camp of Dervenitio, modern Papcastle, was situated at the northern end of a crossing of the river Derwent, which flows from east to west just north of the present town centre. Here was an important road junction in the back-up to Hadrian’s Wall. Also originating in the central Lakeland fells, the Cocker flows from the south to enter the Derwent here, hence the name of the town. At this confluence grew the normal and medieval settlements, a natural administrative and trading centre for a number of converging valleys.
Little happened after the Romans left about AD 400 until the Normans arrived, but place names and Anglian remains in nearby churches prove the continued existence of communities in the area. Governing the district first from the former Roman site, the Normans soon moved to the present castle site on the end of a ridge between the rivers at their confluence. The town developed below the castle and for some distance west along the line of the present main street. In 1260 about 180 burage properties were listed, in addition to the mills, workshops, etc of an active and growing community. Excavations in 1980 proved habitation at the western end of Main Street by 1300.
Cockermouth developed as a typical medieval town, having a broad main street of burgesses’ houses, each with a burgage plot stretching to the usual ‘back lane’ – the Derwent bank on the north and Back Lane,(now South Street) on the south. This basic layout of streets and plots still largely remains one reason for the town’s inclusion as one of the fifty one ‘gem towns’ selected in 1965 by the British Council for Archaeology as being worthy of special care in preservation and development, ‘so splendid and so precious that ultimate responsibility for them should be a national concern'.

Syntheastwood
I know ive mentioned them before of there work but but here a reminder what they are
stablished in 2006 Synth Eastwood is a Dublin based music, art & technology group. Our aim is to present creative work from around the world in an atmosphere more akin to a gig than an exhibition. This is done by inviting artists of every field and level of experience to submit work based on a theme/brief we set. All relevant work is welcomed and exhibited at no cost* to the artist.
Since the groups first show in May of 2006, the number of artists submitting has doubled for each show. In addition to the submitted work bands are invited to play, along with the Synth Eastwood band who perform a set based on the show's theme. In fact all facets of the show even down to the layout and structure of the exhibition space are considered in relation to the brief.
Interactivity is another important aspect to our show and is implemented whenever possible allowing the audience to play with aspects of the music, visuals, and installations. This is put into action through the use of customised interactive controls and gismos.
