This man sits on the same bench every day, at the same time. And he waits a moment, and then he begins to talk. No – not just talk. He begins to have a coherent, everyday conversation, complete with hand gestures and eye contact and those sorts of small silences that feel so comforting when you’re with someone you love. And if you look hard enough you can almost see the shape of his imaginary friend in the empty air on the other side of the bench. Chris Hvidsten of Outcast was the Bench Man.
