Gordon and his team<\/p>\n
Gordon Froud has just completed installation on his ‘mobile’ in the new Department of Science and Technology building in Pretoria. The mobile (it still needs to be named) comprises the product of technology in general, objects ranging from kitchen utensils to scientific tools used in experimentation. Twelve metres in height, the installation was no mean feat. The climax will be tomorrow when the scaffolding is dismantled. Before then, one has to use imagination to picture the separate ‘arms’ hanging in perfect balance.
