The Project Walkway wrap up

On the final day of Project Walkway the girls had interviewed each other while Norene recorded on video for the Project Walkway DVD. These interviews would be part of the Zer01 exhibition. We did practice walks on the red carpet runway. We stood in the conference room to do some last minute shoe repair making sure that they were ok so that there were no malfunctions on the runway. One of the engineers, Jess, painted the girls toe nails blue. While waiting for the show to start the girls were nervous but also very excited. All the participants that walked the runway had to wait in the R&D Lab until their names were called. They all did very well and had personality while walking which made the crowd smile and applaud. Their shoes were all unique in their way which attracted many interviews from the people that were watching. The girls were interviewed for the Sci-Fi channel and for a pod cast by the New York Academy of Sciences. Once they are online we will post them on the blog to keep you updated. Now the shoes are going to the exhibition in San Jose for the Zer01 new media art festival. In the fall we will be going to Bayard Rustin Academy for Art and Music, where we will be presenting the shoes to the students. Keep checking our website to see what we're up to.
