Funded by Arts Council England, a free event produced by internationally acclaimed London artists Tundra, who are producing an audio-visual celebration of Exeter entitled Isca Obscura. A play on words, meaning secret or hidden Exeter, with a nod to the Camera Obscura. The work will be projected across the Cathedral’s north aspect covering up to 80 x 30 metres of the ancient building’s outer walls, while interactive projections take place on the West Front.

Over the three February nights, fantastical imagery will illuminate the cathedral with the city’s history, fables, and poetry, drawing on groundbreaking techniques, ranging from shadow theatre, paper cut-outs to computer generated imagery.

Exeter sources have been used widely to produce the narrative. Examples include the 10th Century Exeter Book donated to the city by the first Bishop of Exeter, Leofric. The work is an ancient cannon widely regarded as the largest known collection of Old English literature, dating from 960. Other sources include local literature, such as Nicholas Orme’s Cathedral Cat, Death and Memory in Mediaeval Exeter, the Exeter Book of Riddles and Ghosts of Exeter.
