Pendle's Panopticon, Atom, rests on the hillside above Wycoller village in Wycoller Country Park. Constructed in ferro-cement with a surface coating of metal-based paint, it is both a striking contemporary viewing point and shelter from which to enjoy Pendle's glorious scenery, and an intriguing and beautiful object which can be viewed from afar.

The Ariel Atom is a road legal high performance sports car made by the Ariel Motor Company based in Crewkerne, Somerset, England and under licence in North America by TMI Autotech, Inc. at Virginia International Raceway in Alton, Virginia.
There have been five Ariel Atom incarnations to date: Ariel Atom, Ariel Atom 2, Ariel Atom 3, Ariel Atom 3 Mugen Limited Edition (only 10 made) Ariel Atom 3,5 and Ariel Atom 500 V8 Limited Edition (only 25 to be made). The current models are the Ariel Atom 3,5 and the limited production Ariel Atom 500 V8 with a 500 bhp (373 kW; 507 PS) V8 made from two Suzuki Hayabusa engines.
The Ariel Atom is unusual in that it is exoskeletal — the chassis is prominently visible from the outside — and therefore lacks a roof, windows and other features normally found on road cars although a small windscreen is available as an optional extra. The chassis design leads to a relatively high drag coefficient of 0.40 in comparison to more aerodynamic road cars. French actor Jocelyn Quivrin died in 2009 after crashing his Ariel Atom in the ring roads of Paris.

Alpha, Beta, Gamma other sub particles- is there a choice? And, what do the cows look like? (hint: they glow if faintly).
The “Atom” panoptican (www.flickr.com/photos/67668518@N08/9301635536/) is a popular artwork in rural north-east Lancashire. It is located approximately 3 miles east-southeast of Colne (“Roaring River”) and stands in the car park and picnic area of Wycoller (“Dairy Farm among the Alder Trees”) Country Park, on the Laneshaw Bridge to Haworth (“Enclosure with a Hedge”) road.
The bronze-coated glass reinforced concrete structure was officially opened to the public on 22nd September 2006 and was designed by Peter Meacock, Andrew Edmunds and Katarina Novomestska of Peter Meacock Projects. It occupies a commanding position on the hillside above Wycoller village and affords spectacular views of the surrounding countryside. Indeed, the panoptican was intended to be not just a work of art, but also to be a viewing point and a shelter. Inside the panoptican there used to be a large, polished steel ball that was mounted on the pillar in the centre. The ball reflected the views to be seen through each of the openings in the panoptican and it was an important piece of the design. Sadly and for reasons known only to themselves, mindless vandals have felt the need to hack off the ball and an important feature of the design has been lost.
The picture was taken inside the atom, looking out of the apertures on the west wall. Unfortunately much of the visual impact has been lost now that the internal globe has been removed.
" The Ariel Atom is a high performance open air roadster that is produced by the Ariel Motor Company in Somerset, England. The Atom is built with an exoskeleton type frame and features very minimal bodywork to go along with the sports car’s lightweight theme. The Ariel Atom is powered by a variety of power plants ranging from a supercharged Honda K series four cylinders to GM Ecotec engines with outputs ranging from 245 HP to 300 HP depending upon the application. The standard Atom is able to accelerate from 0 to 60 MPH in only 2.7 seconds and can reach a top speed of 150 MPH. Ariel is currently working on the Atom 500, taking the lightweight sports car to the next level with a 2.4 Liter 10,000 RPM V8 made from a pair of Suzuki Hyabusa engines that will produce a maximum output of 500 HP."
This started out as a large piece of hardwood that nobody wanted - the grain is inconsistent and it was weirdly shaped. I cut it down, planed it down and sanded it quite a bit.. until I ended up with a square about 6x6".
The design is the logo for The Geek Group which is where I work. The guys in the shop wanted to see the atom logo carved in wood.
I'm rather fond of it. :)

The Atom is a panopticon situated close to the Haworth Road Car Park above Wycoller in Lancashire.
A panopticon is a structure, space or device providing a comprehensive or panoramic view; in this case, of the beautiful countryside of The Forest of Trawden.
Atom is a result of 3 years work by designers Peter Meacock with Katarina Novomestska and Architects WCW.
The structure originally included a polished steel ball inside, designed to reflect the views through the circular windows, but unfortunately this has had to be removed due to vandalism.

These small flange, solid axle, one-piece aluminum body Atom hubs were fitted to numerous mid-priced french bicycles from the 50s through the 70s. Atom brand components were produced by Maurice Maillard.
