Aurora with Victoria and Sohini
Met with the girls in downtown Soho. We sat at a rustic wood and brick bar eatery fronted by a metal porch, lit with candles. We caught up on the 4 or 5 years of things that have happened since the DMIND Corporation shut down and we were left to make our way in the world.
Sohini and Arka, their romance was a tale woven while the sun went down and the leggy fashionastas of Soho came out (- from downtown corporate offices - from catwalks in the meatpacking district - or from tall storefronts midtown.)
Victoria started a new career - a new sort of marketing, managing BUZZ - for clients like HBO, some video gamemakers, for celebrity personalities. Image management? What did she call it, there is a term of art...Rumor management? She generates and manages image and rumor and excitement in the new media: the blog-o-sphere, chatrooms, clubs and dance floor, back rooms of fashionable bars, and behind closed doors in boardrooms. She always was motivated...
The grappa flowed freely. It was a long and fantastic evening. I ate perfect seared scallops on top of a vinaigrette salad on rough wood tables worn smooth and layered with softwax.
Everyone's so beautiful here.
