Right - the Panopticon is extremely unlikely to happen in Hyndburn, I think we've all established that on many occassion. So can we please, please, please let the matter drop.

Next person to mention it and I start deducting karma!

If enough people want it to happen becuase something that they like is suggested it will happen. All this sounds a big c up to me because the press poked their noses in as usual and hijacked it in the design process. People jumped to conclusions and refused anything, while also refusing to say what is acceptable.
It may be very unlikely in your opinion, but your not 100% are you:D
 
very interesting design rindy. The artist should have looked at that.
What do you think to the seating up there ? is it any good ? Im assumin the only seting is the shelter? do you think more is needed.
 
and I thought the Tory leaflet 'No No No' was telling us the Conservatives will defend us against an alien landing and send out a clear message, go and land somewhere else, you're not wanted in these parts.
 
It was about telling you what to think and telling you what you can or can't have on YOUR coppice.
 
For what it's worth I think we missed out on a real opportunity, I can see it now....PB and his buddies manning the laser guided rocket guns from the top of the Coppice saving us all from Aliens landing there. That's a panoptican I'd subscribe to. Gayle, are these guns within Mid Pennines' panopitcan budget?

If you take your monitor as your audience, Katex is right, and I know what I'm talking about too.

Can I just say that this was not a statement from Mid Pennine Arts, it was a gut feeling based on what has been posted on here.

The situation from Mid Pennine Arts is that we are still exploring possibilities - they could be new site, new design, new artist but at this point we have no idea what they could be. The Hyndburn one is at the back of the queue with 4 being built this year and the end date is looming.
 
The reason that I posted this thread is because the subject keeps coming up in different contexts and people keep reading different things into anything I say about it. When I say that nothing is happening at the moment, that is what I mean. We are not secretly plotting to launch one on you all at the last minute, we are not looking at pushing for any of the past designs to ever be used, we are not doing any work on a Panopticon for Hyndburn at the moment. It is at the back of the queue and that is where it will stay whilst we are working on the other four. The project funding is due to end in March 07!

I can't, I am the audience. Your on stage your right is that way >>>>>>>> but I'm the other way so right is <<<<<<<<<<<< my left.
Politicians have an audience to, a very large audience. Sometime someone will remind the electorate to watch the the show. If the politicians find this out they tend to put on very good acting, so convincing that the electorate doesn't see the the real politician, but they only see the character being played.

Thats in the past. There is funding there though that could be used for something on the coppice, but it looks like it will be blocked again by the same person before it's even been discussed.
 
I'm sorry but I really don't want to discuss this any more and I do wish other people would let it lie.

Every time I post something about it I get a phone call from the Lancs Eve Tel. I repeated once again, yesterday, that nothing about the situation in Hyndburn had changed for the last 8 or 9 months but he still wanted to know what was going on and probably didn't believe me when I said "nothing".

All I was doing by posting this thread was to ask people to stop talking about it on a different, slightly related, topic, or any other topic for that matter. It was not because there was anything new to say. We go over the same arguments every time, please, can I ask one more time to leave it alone, there really is nothing more to say and if anything does happen I promise I will let you know.

Everything that I say is being read by the local press, as was proven by the drama festival thing and this latest thread and in my attempts to be as open as possible people are still managing to read things into things I say.
