I went for a walk with <a href="http://harringtonprojectsea.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">Laura Harrington</a>, who is artist-in-residence at Environment Agency. We walked by the Ouseburn - a small river off the Tyne in a surprisingly quiet and neglected-seeming part of Newcastle not so far from the center, after driving with her in the EA's funny little electric car.

<p style="text-align: left;">This next pic is by someone on flickr - Paul J White - who calls Ouseburn "the cradle of the Industrial Revolution." I bet some brief research would show this brownfields holdover as a pretty interesting ecosystem now.</p>
