Wow, the simulation of the changing reflections on the future building! Very cool effect. Maybe I didn't watch it on high enough resolution, but it looked totally realistic to me, to the point where I wouldn't have known it wasn't real.

All the hype about Austin these days, as exemplified in the music and drama about Fifth and West in the video, got me thinking about how parents of celebrities might feel. They knew the kids through all their foibles and awkward times, when they pooped their diapers, when they cried for mommy, etc. I've only been in Austin for 25 years but I feel like I've known it since it was going through puberty. So I kind of chuckle at all the fuss over this gangly teenage city. It's still hard for me to believe that Formula One chose Austin, or that SXSW metastasized from the funky mostly-local event where I was once a presenter and performer, to the world-renowned firmament of innovation and discovery that it has become today.
