Feeling kind of warped lately …
Yup, that’s me! For those of you who are wondering what this is, this is the underside of this structure Cloud Gate, a 110 ton installation in Chicago’s Millennium Park. You can go underneath this kidney-bean structure and see weird reflections of yourself and others.
