The Fossil Tree by John Mills
Millennium Milepost on the Greenwich Meridian
Greenwich Peninsula, Greenwich
London, September 2003

“One thousand ‘Millennium Mileposts’ made from cast iron were funded by the Royal Bank of Scotland to mark the creation of the National Cycle Network, and these are found along the NCN routes throughout the UK. There are four different types: ‘Fossil Tree’ (designed by John Mills), ‘The Cockerel’ (designed by Iain McColl), ‘Rowe Type’ (designed by Andrew Rowe), and ‘Tracks’ (designed by David Dudgeon). The four artists are from each country of the UK, though all posts can be found in all four countries. Most mileposts contain a disk featuring symbols and text in code. There are 60 different designs, spread across the country. They form part of the Millennium Time Trail, a treasure hunt puzzle created by Sustrans in 2001.” (National Cycle Network, Wikipedia)

Quantum Cloud

“Quantum Cloud” by by Antony Gormley, 1999
Greenwich Peninsula, Greenwich
London, September 2003

“The Quantum Cloud is a contemporary sculpture, designed by Antony Gormley, located next to The O2 in London. The sculpture was commissioned for the site and was completed in 1999. At 30 metres (98 ft) high, it is Gormley's tallest sculpture to date (taller than the Angel of the North). It is constructed from a collection of tetrahedral units made from 1.5 m (4 ft 11 in) long sections of steel. The steel sections were arranged using a computer model with a random walk algorithm starting from points on the surface of an enlarged figure based on Gormley's body that forms a residual outline at the centre of the sculpture. In designing Quantum Cloud, Antony Gormley was influenced by Basil Hiley, quantum physicist (and long-time colleague of David Bohm). The idea for Quantum Cloud came from Hiley's thoughts on pre-space as a mathematical structure underlying space-time and matter, and his comment that ‘algebra is the relationship of relationships.’ The comment was made during a conversation between Gormley, Hiley and writer David Peat at a 1999 London gathering of artists and scientists, organized by Peat. The sculpture's structural design was by Elliott Wood Partnership while the foundation design was by Beckett Rankine. Fabrication was by Tubeworkers (Structures) Ltd. Gormley's Quantum Cloud is part of The Line, a series of public sculptures that follow the Greenwich Meridian, through the London Boroughs of Greenwich, Tower Hamlets and Newham. On 5 August 2020, it, and Gary Hume’s Liberty Grip will be joined in Three Mills Green, Stratford by Thomas J. Price's Reaching Out showing a black woman looking down at her mobile phone.” (Quantum Cloud, Wikipedia)

“The Thames Barrier is a retractable barrier system that is designed to prevent the floodplain of most of Greater London from being flooded by exceptionally high tides and storm surges moving up from the North Sea. It has been operational since 1982. When needed, it is closed (raised) during high tide; at low tide, it can be opened to restore the river's flow towards the sea. Built approximately 3 km (1.9 mi) due east of the Isle of Dogs, its northern bank is in Silvertown in the London Borough of Newham and its southern bank is in the New Charlton area of the Royal Borough of Greenwich.” (Thames Barrier, Wikipedia)
