  • Joseph Swan 1828 - 1914
    Joseph Swan 1828 - 1914 By 1850 gas lighting was used everywhere, in streets, shops and even in the home. But, frankly, it was smelly, smoky, rather expensive and - moreover - poisonous. Joseph Swan, a British inventor, physicist and chemist was among those who first became interested in the construction of an incandescent electric lamp to be used instead of gas. Joseph Wilson Swan was born as he said ‘on the Eve of All Hallows’ in the year 1828, in Sunderland, in the North East of England. His father and mother, John and Isabella Swan, both belonged to families of Scottish descent, who had settled in the county of Durham at about the middle of the eighteenth century. The family had a good income. Swan grew up an inquisitive boy who was interested in everything surrounding him. When he was still small he knew how iron bars were transformed into nails and how lime was made. Years later he remembered that when he was about five or six years old he had been in Deptford glass house and ‘seen the red hot metal twirled about at the end of a long tube, blown into and rolled and shaped into a bottle’. He had watched the working of the potter's wheel and the making of cups and saucers. He devised Although Joseph was going to school, he was allowed much liberty. At first he was sent to a the electric Dame school kept by `three dear ladies'. From there he went to a large boys’ school near Sunderland. On leaving school at the age of thirteen he was apprenticed to a firm of chemists.

    Press release Wednesday 20 December 2018 New £200,000 project brings creative writing to Gateshead A new project from New Writing North promises to inspire the next generation of young people in Gateshead to write. The £200,000 Gateshead Young Writers Programme is funded by The Kavli Trust, owners of Primula, which is based on Gateshead’s Team Valley. All of the commercial business’s profits go to supporting good causes. New Writing North supports writers at all stages of their careers and has over 20 years’ experience in working with schools and in communities to support young people to write. The organisation’s comprehensive Young Writers’ programme currently runs five weekly creative writing groups across the North East, six annual summer schools, a talent investment scheme and regular masterclasses and development programmes. Its award-winning Young Writers’ City project has staff and professional writers based at Excelsior Academy in Newcastle and Academy 360 in Sunderland, three days a week all year round.

From February 2019, writers, artists and project producers will be based in each secondary school, where they will run innovative 10-week creative writing programmes with around 400 Year 7 and 8 pupils each year. In each school, writers will also run lunchtime and after-school clubs throughout the year on a range of writing forms from rapping and songwriting to screenwriting and poetry, so that all young people with an interest can develop their writing talent.

  • Once in a While, New Electronics Likes to Look Back to Times When Moving Electrons Around Was in the Pioneering Stage
    Let there be light! Once in a while, New Electronics likes to look back to times when moving electrons around was in the pioneering stage. One house in the North East of England claims to be where modern luxury living was born. By Tim Fryer. t was an age when technology pioneers were making their mark on all aspects of life. These were not the innovators who stood on the shoulders of giants (to Iparaphrase Newton) – these were giants themselves. The home of one such giant is Cragside, just on the edge of the Northumberland National Park. Here, William Armstrong built a house – unsurprisingly on the edge of a crag – described in 1880 as the ‘palace of the modern magician’. There were many reasons why he and his house earned The Burnfoot hydroelectric this accolade, but one enduring reason was that it was the power plant first house to be lit by hydroelectricity. In 1880, making light from water was a truly remarkable feat, not least because lighting in those days came from gas or oil lamps, candles or electric arc lights, which were rarely used indoors as they were noisy, smelly and dangerous. The incandescent bulb had been demonstrated only a year before by Joseph Swan, who received his UK patent in 1879; several months before Edison’s on the other side of the Atlantic. Legal teams subsequently resolved that both men had invented the incandescent light bulb independently and concurrently and, while most people’s instinct might be that Edison invented the light bulb – and he certainly was the one who made most money out of it – those in the North East remain committed to their man’s claims.
