On the Cover:
James Borden creates his clocks so that observers are unavoidably aware of the gears, pendulums and other mechanisms that make up his work. Borden creates about 10 to 15 clocks each year. This photo shows details of his work. For more on Borden, see this month's Profile in Success. Photo by Bob Barrett.
