While the modern railway first emerged in the North East of England, its influence has since spanned the globe. This revolution has connected billions across diverse cultures, transforming the way people interact and travel. Beyond enhancing accessibility, the railway inspired remarkable engineering and design. Iconic locomotives and legendary journeys became national symbols, offering a wealth of inspiration for musicians, artists, and writers while fostering unprecedented levels of engagement. Drawing on the cultural and social impact of this North East gift to the world, NOVAK developed Alight. This artwork invited audiences on a global expedition, traversing diverse landscapes via a series of legendary trains. A central element of this journey was the original score composed by renowned sound designers and musicians Ed Carter and Roma Yagnik. Their evocative sonic tapestry established a rhythmic foundation that amplified the journey's shifting momentum and highlighted cultural milestones along the route.
