## Resource

This is the sound of a master glassblower, Marcin Czepiga at The World of Glass. He is blowing and shaping glass for the museum shop after the visitors have left. The sound is unique as usually, only the glassblowers at the museum will hear the process as it is in the recording. During public glassblowing demonstrations, there would be talking therefore a different sound to what is heard here. St Helens is world famous for glass and the story of an industry entwined there is being kept alive in this recording. The Hot Glass Studio is one of the largest in the UK. The recording was taken in 2025. Recorded by Rebecca Ainsworth.
