The Singing, Ringing Tree

Looking like the wreckage of an Alien space craft, this Futuristic Sculpture is Art Jim, but not as we know it. Commisioned by a forward thinking Burnley Council & designed by Tonkin Liu Architects

The collection of tubes makes the strangest sounds when the wind blows, which is often round the location at Crown Point, on the moorland overlooking Burnley. Seen in the background is Pendle Hill, famous for the PENDLE WITCHES. Maybe in the sculpture, the myth lives on. Let me know what YOU think.

Your microphone sucks, cover it with something, anything!

@RubyTeeg There are certain rejects who think that any musical or artistic creation

that in some way incorporates natures deserves to be labeled "hippy crap". It's not worth trying to trying to deduce the logic in their argument, they're just jealous and angry, since they have no artistic abilities and they have nothing of any value to contribute to the world (not that they would ever bother to find out).

@RailMon I agree that IMASHINDEKUDASAI didn't choose the most polite way to say what he said but, he's right, this was't recorded very well. I dont know what kind of mic you used but, if you had simply used a pop screen/wind filter you would have been able to block the distorted wind noise so people could hear this fascinating musical sculpture better (if you simply used a camera or phone's built in mic, that would guarantee the sound quality comes out poor as well).
