The project consists of four sculptures - the Atom house, the Colourfields paths, the singing and sparkling Halo flying saucer and the singing and ringing tree Singing Ringing Tree.

6. The whole Panopticons project was intended to represent the regeneration of West Lancashire. The sculptures should decorate the natural landscape and attract tourists to these picturesque places.

7. The singing trumpets of the Tree are tuned so that the melody covers several octaves. Not all the pipes that make up this tree are capable of making sounds - some of them are simply structural elements.

8. Singing works have different lengths and holes, so they can produce sounds of different pitches.

9. The design of the Singing Tree contains 350 pipes of different lengths, and a total of 60 thousand pounds were spent on the construction of the sculpture.

This amazing creation of Mike Tonkin and Anna Liu - the "Singing Ringing Tree" can be seen and heard on a hill in the Pennines of Lancashire. The height of the singing sculpture reaches three meters. The tree is made of galvanized steel pipes that produce melodious sounds with every gust of wind.

The song of the tree depends on which direction and with what force the wind blows. She can be tender, and sad, and even scary.

The Singing Tree stands on the highest point of Crown Point, offering panoramic views of Burnley. When the weather is sunny and there is no haze, you can see neighboring cities from there.

The singing sculpture was built in 2006. She is part of the Panopticons project.

At the very top of the windswept Crown Point hill, overlooking the city of Burnley (UK), there is a three-meter musical sculpture “ Singing-Ringing Tree"(The Singing Ringing Tree).

At strong wind the sculpture, made in the shape of a tree, begins to emit a quiet, rich hum, covering several octaves at once.

“Tree” is configured in such a way that the sounds it makes do not disturb the idyll of the surrounding nature and do not frighten animals.

The authors of the unusual sculpture were architects Mike Tonkin and Anna Liu.

Anna Liu says that the idea to create the Singing-Jingling Tree came to her after watching a popular children's television show of the same name in 1960.

“The Singing-Ringling Tree is rightfully considered the scariest children's program in the world. I remember watching with rapture another exciting story and shaking with fear. My imagination painted hundreds of unknown worlds that were inhabited by: gnomes, elves, dragons, beautiful princesses and brave princes,” says Anna. — When creating this sculpture, I tried to bring into it a piece of my fears, fantasies and experiences that watching “The Singing Tree” instilled in me. If you climb to the top of Crown Point on a windy evening and close your eyes, you will certainly be able to see a new amazing world.”

The sculpture “The Singing-Ringing Tree” is also known under another name - “Burnley’s Panopticon”. So unusual name appeared due to the fact that from the top of Crown Point a stunning panorama of the fair town of Burnley (UK) opens.

The material for creating this incredible sculpture was hundreds of galvanized steel pipes, laid out in the shape of a bizarre tree, bowing its metal branches under gusts of wind. Each tube has different diameter holes and rotated at a certain angle, so the “Singing-Ringing Tree” plays a different melody every time the wind strength and direction changes.

"The Singing-Ringing Tree" was recognized by the Royal Institute of British Architects as the best sculpture of 2007 and was awarded national award“For Architectural Excellence” (National Award for architectural excellence).

The creation of Mike Tonkin and Anna Liu is one of 4 sculptures united under common name"Panopticons" (panopticons) and installed on the highest points of East Lancashire.

“Panopticons” are real “magnets” both for local residents, who began to go outside more often and take walks, and for tourists from all over the world.

“I encourage you to visit Crown Point on a summer evening when the warm breeze plays from the singing tree and carries a melodious hum throughout the area,” says local resident Mandy Mankof. — The sun slowly disappears behind the horizon and at a certain moment the whole world seems to fall silent! By listening, you will certainly be able to catch the quiet melody of the wind, like a mother’s whisper, which brings back memories of past love, friendship, devotion... youth. It is in such moments that you learn to appreciate life and understand how fragile and beautiful it is.”

The word "Panopticon" was coined by English philosopher and social reformer Jeremy Bentham in 1875 to refer to a space or device that provides panoramic surveillance of prison inmates without their knowledge. Today, thanks in large part to the “singing tree,” the word panopticon is used exclusively to designate a place from which a panoramic view of a picturesque area opens.

At its core, the “Singing-Ringing Tree” is a giant wind organ consisting of many pipes of varying lengths and diameters of internal holes, due to which each of them has a unique sound. Sound production occurs as it passes through the tube air flow- wind.

Until 2006, on the site of the “Singing-Ringing Tree” sculpture there stood an old dilapidated telegraph building, making local residents nostalgic for the old days, when the city developed and prospered. Unusual sculpture helped breathe life into the city new life: Every year hundreds of tourists from all over the world come to Burnley to see with their own eyes the three-meter “tree organ” and listen to how the wind plays on it.

2. Some people compared him to castaways spaceship; Some people still associate it with local witch folklore, the ominous sounds being compared to the spells of legendary witches. However, in most cases he is seen as a charismatic and alluring addition to the Lancashire landscape.

3. The remote location of the singing tree organ is of course part of its charm. The design is made in the form of a tree, it has a curved and twisted shape, its shape is determined by the wind, it is obvious that it is made by human hands. Art and nature unite and triumph when, 3 meters high in the Apennine Mountains, a sculpture sings its lonely song.

4. The concept is very simple - and therein lies the beauty. Singing tree organ - many galvanized steel pipes, it was created by the architect team Tonkin Liu, consisting of Anna Liu and Mike Tonkin. These pipes harness the power of the wind and produce a choral sound, dissimilar but refined.

5. Some pipes are only designed to simply create an impression, other pipes are cut to width, when the wind blows, they make a sound. The pipes are tuned using holes on the underside, each hole made according to the length of the pipe and the sound they should make.

6. The name of the sculpture comes from the iconic and very scary German children's television series of the 1960s. The television series told the story of an arrogant princess who told her suitor that she would agree to marry him if he found the tree of the same name.

7. The name alone is enough to evoke fear in people who were young at that time, but there are also talking bears, terrible dwarfs, scary forests and much more. Look at the photo on the left and imagine a fairy tale invented by Wagner, filmed by Fritz Lang with a bias towards The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari and German Expressionism, and you will be close to the truth.

8. At a time when most TV shows and films in Britain were in black and white, this film was in colour. The irony is that such a bright beginning was completely lost during the communist era in East Germany.

9. The sculpture has received many prizes, including the RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) International Award for Excellence in Architecture.
