Gotcha!
A Few weeks ago at the Brussels Design Market, I remember having seen various metal bars stuck on tennis balls. I didn't get that. Was it meant as art, or provocation or as a form of material culture alien to me...what was it? Then I was told it is apparently a not so uncommon practice to use a tennis ball on the metal hook at the back of the car if the metal ball on the hook gets lost. The tennis ball then prevents (so it went the explanation) the metal to rust away. Somehow I found it quite interesting. So, a few days ago we were driving around the Merode area when I noticed a tennis ball strangely placed at the back of a car and finally really got what cars and tennis balls have to do with each other!
