The Singing, Ringing Tree

I like sculpture, I like sculpture even more than does some awesome like the “tree” in the video. According to the youtube notes: “Commissioned by a forward thinking Burnley Council, 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.“ Spokane has prime places for art like this. I’d be great to see some installations pieces pop up in the pacific north west as well.
