Coming to SXSW? If so, I really, really hope you can join me for the Sixth-and-a-half Annual Break Bread With Brad on the eve of South by Southwest Interactive, Friday, March 10, 2006, in Austin, Texas, starting at around 7 pm.
(w00t!)
So I follow this Twitter account called "LAist" that shares interesting things going on in L.A. That's how I learned about this "Break Bread" gallery of floor-to-ceiling cake sculptures. There was a lot of really cool cake sculptures in there -- a bunch of them with ferocious teeth -- but the promotional materials had these photos that referred to a "cake maze." What they don't mention is how the "maze" is just an optical illusion using mirrors; where I am standing in the above shot, in fact, is just my image in a wall mirror. The cake in the foreground is a real-life sculpture though. So the whole gallery was still fun to visit.
Probably no one else notices this but I do: the part in my hair is on the wrong side in this shot (though not in the shot I posted to Facebook, because I flipped it there so it would look right). That's because the only way to get a decent shot of me in this room was for Shobhit to stand in the doorway and take it through a wall mirror, just as we had seen the couple ahead of us do.
