'Tyne Line of Text Flow' was inspited by the hidden Skinner Burn, which runs under Newcastle's Thornton Street. The 140m long text merges Roman messages from Hadrians' Wall times, printed text from the era of King Charles 1 and text messages collected in 2002 on the day of the Newcastle Sunderland football derby.
