A wind powered sound sculpture resembling a tree, set in the landscape of the Pennine hills overlooking Burnley, in Lancashire. It is part of the series of four sculptures within the Panopticons arts and regeneration project created by the East Lancashire Environmental Arts Network (ELEAN). The project was set up to erect a series of twenty-first century landmarks, or Panopticons (structures providing a comprehensive view), across East Lancashire as symbols of the renaissance of the area. The three metre tall construction comprises pipes of galvanised steel which harness the energy of the wind to produce a slightly discordant sounds covering several octaves. Some of the pipes are primarily structural and aesthetic elements, while others have been cut across their width enabling the sound.
