A knitted sphere cover was installed outside Vodafone side door in Maastricht Friday 23rd April 2010 at about 7.30am The picture gallery from Connielene is here
There were 3 balls and the one closest to the road was covered with the red and white Vodafone logo knitted piece. Vodafone Maastricht Ball Cover
We are about 3 hours from Maastricht so cannot report if the knitted cover remained after 3.30pm on Friday.
A new piece of knit graffiti will be installed on Friday morning in Maastricht, before breakfast even. There are several issues for the installer – it will be daylight, and it hasn’t been tested. Best Beloved did the measurements, hope he recorded them correctly
But the question is “Will it be an Orange piece”, or Will it actually be the Red & White one? Whichever colour it is, it will be round.
Orange or maybe it will be Red & White

These perfectly spherical rocks are calcium and carbonate-based rocks from the seabed, formed about 60 million years ago. The massive marbles now sit along the tide line; some are well concealed, others more exposed.
The soft mudstone containing the boulders was raised from the seabed about 15 million years ago and changing sea levels are exposing the erosion resistant boulders.
Scientists explain the boulders as septarian concretions formed about 65 million years ago. Crystallization of calcium and carbonates around charged particles in muddy undersea sediments gradually formed the boulders in a process taking as long as four million years. The soft mudstone containing the boulders was raised from the seabed around 15 million years ago and sea erosion is exposing the erosion-resistant boulders.
So we have discovered Natural Spherical Forms
