Burnley's Panopticon 'Singing Ringing Tree' is a unique musical sculpture which overlooks Burnley from its position high above the town on Crown Point. Constructed from pipes of galvanised steel stacked in layers, this Panopticon takes the form of a tree bending to the winds and harnesses the energy of those winds to produce a low, tuneful song. In June 2007 Singing Ringing Tree was named winner of a National Award for architectural excellence by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). www.visitlancashire.com/things-to-do/singing-ringing-tree-panopticon-p66560 VIDEOS.....see links below. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpAhRxqibT0 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ve6PTrlLGOU

The "Panopticon atom", situated on a hill-top above the village of Wycoller in Pendle District, Lancashire, in the North-West of England. This Panopticon is an "arts and regeneration project" of the East Lancashire Environmental Arts Network. It involved the construction of a series of 21st-century landmarks or Panopticons (structures providing a comprehensive view) across East Lancashire, England, as symbols of the renaissance of the area. Four large-scale sculptures were commissioned, designed and constructed over a six year period for the districts of Blackburn, Burnley, Pendle and Rossendale. "The Halo" in Haslingden (Rossendale) was the last sculpture in the series to be erected in 2007". VIDEOS here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrCuBw-3Hns www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTb-kR2BFU8
