Brontë Weather Project

Rebecca Chesney is a visual artist who this year is the artist in residence at the Brontë Parsonage Museum. She is working in a project which she describes like this:

The Brontë Weather Project is a year long research residency based at The Brontë Parsonage Museum in Haworth and will run from September 2011. During the residency I will be studying the local weather patterns at Haworth and also reading texts by the Brontës to see how they were influenced and inspired by the weather.

You can follow the project on this blog. So far, the last published post talks about the (in)famous 1850 Babbage report.
