it is not about the pieces, it’s how the pieces work together - it becomes a something.
Standing at 14 metres tall, Under The Baobab Tree – created by Pirate Technics – has been commissioned by London’s Southbank Centre for the Festival Of The World in the run-up to the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and the Olympics.
All of the materials have been hand-picked from the city and county, with many of the fabrics coming from Sneinton Market.
“Inspired by the idea of the space between strangers becoming smaller we created the Baobab Tree as a unique meeting place for chance encounters sparking new conversations.”

The Loneliest Whale in the World.In 2004, The New York Times wrote an article about the loneliest whale in the world. Scientists have been tracking her since 1992 and they discovered the problem:
She isn’t like any other baleen whale. Unlike all other whales, she doesn’t have friends. She doesn’t have a family. She doesn’t belong to any tribe, pack or gang. She doesn’t have a lover. She never had one. Her songs come in groups of two to six calls, lasting for five to six seconds each. But her voice is unlike any other baleen whale. It is unique—while the rest of her kind communicate between 12 and 25hz, she sings at 52hz. You see, that’s precisely the problem. No other whales can hear her. Every one of her desperate calls to communicate remains unanswered. Each cry ignored. And, with every lonely song, she becomes sadder and more frustrated, her notes going deeper in despair as the years go by.
