The 8 foot tall bride

Inspired by Amanda Palmer and her story in the TED talks video "The Art of Asking." She mentions how she used to paint herself white, put on a wedding dress and stand on a crate to turn herself into a living statue called the 8 foot tall bride. She mentions how she would often encounter very lonely people, who she would give a flower. This was followed by intense eye contact in which she could read the person's thoughts.
