Follow creator Crystal Chan as you solve a mystery. When she unravels a fantastical fable, you learn the shocking truth behind her grandmother’s escape from China. Poignant and inspirational, clues unfurl through original music, animations and cinematic 3D audio drama that spans two continents, three languages and ninety years. Stop walking, and the story stops too. Why do you have to walk? Because one step at a time, you uncover the power of moving forward. As you walk to the grocery store, or through a park, you examine your steps and stories next to a refugee’s. A trip around the block is transformed into a revolutionary interactive experience. Do you dare “walk in someone else’s shoes”?

oversupinate

People who jog, run, and sprint have their share of problems that slow-moving people can barely comprehend. One is oversupination. As the OED defines it, to oversupinate is “To run or walk so that the weight falls upon the outer sides of the feet to a greater extent than is necessary, desirable, etc.” A 1990 Runner’s World article gets to the crux of the problem: “It’s hard to ascertain exactly what percentage of the running population oversupinates, but it’s a fraction of the people who think they do.” Credits to Mark Peters.
