There are over 70 pages of quotes and pictures about John and Yoko's peace campaigns, information about the tower and some wallpapers and banners to download.

There's a new video on the Imagine Peace website that shows the Peace Tower being built. There are also some clips of Yoko on the BBC Andrew Marr Show (she was on the show on Sunday).

This is what the tower looks like:

Also, for those of you who have a Myspace there's a new Myspace Imagine Peace group here:

The IMAGINE PEACE TOWER is an artwork conceived by Yoko Ono in memory of
John Lennon.

It is dedicated to peace and bears the inscription IMAGINE PEACE in 24 languages.

Its construction and installation is a collaboration between Yoko Ono, the City of
Reykjavik, Reykjavik Art Museum and Reykjavik Energy.

The work is in the form of a wishing well from which a very strong and tall tower of
light emerges. The strength, intensity and brilliance of the light tower continually
changes as the particles in the air fluctuate with the prevailing weather and atmospheric
conditions unique to Iceland.

Every year it will light up between October 9th (Lennon's birthday) and December 8th
(the day of his death).

In addition the IMAGINE PEACE TOWER will be lit on New Year's Eve, during the first
week of spring and on some rare special occasions agreed between the City and Yoko
Ono.

There's an interesting thing going on, organised by Yoko. It's called 'The Wish Tree', and all you have to do is send your wishes. It will eventually be buried in capsules around the Imagine Peace Tower.

WE CAN MAKE THE DIFFERENCE. SEND YOUR WISHES. SPREAD YOUR MESSAGE.
