Apple TV asked me to make a ball for MLS goalkeeper of the year: Roman Burki. It was an intense week to get it done before the deadline, but I really enjoyed it. The construction is based on the lines on the new away kit with Burki’s number 1 running through the water.

The first of man 'ball drops'. Every ball I've made (that I'm not embarassed by) was dropped onto 2 reluctant but willing participants. It's 'marketing' for 12 Pentagons, but also something that I really wanted to do and was a lot of fun. You can view the full slow motion video on 12p.com.

This picture shows the crazy panel shapes for my (unintentional) sausage ball. The panels make 1 continuous path all around the ball to create the sphere.
