UK Pavilion Shanghai Expo
Construction is underway on the UK pavilion for the Shanghai Expo. The spiky design by Thomas Heatherwick features 60,000 7.5m long acrylic rods that will sway in the wind. Heatherwick's other spiky design, The B in Bang for Manchester, is to be dismantled due to safety concerns and bits dropping off.
In other Expo news: a web site for volunteers has been launched. It's all in Chinese. Why would they want foreign volunteers at an international event?
