as is the case with tsai’s other films , stylistic elements deepen this sense of isolation . vive l’amour is mostly silent , offering little dialog and virtually no music . long takes and tracking shots proliferate , as if the camera is a languid companion on the characters’ descent into nothingness . there is little action in the movie ; even when police are about to crack down on ah - jung’s street stall , it displays little urgency . thus , vive l’amour is very much an art film , providing little for entertainment but much for contemplation .
1 . editor ' s note : tsai ' s most recent film , the river ( he liu , 1997 ) , which forms a loose trilogy with rebels of the neon god and vive l ' amour , won the silver bear prize at the 47th berlin in 1997 .
i ' ve seen a few ming - liang films , but so far vive l ' amour ( which translates to
long live love
) is his best . it ' s a meditative exploration of urban malaise that is more interested in one ' s silences than one ' s communication , and what those silences mean .
i used viva l ' amour to help me plan and achieve the most romantic evening of my life at escambrón beach with the purpose of popping the question . my new fiancee was so surprised and excited that she thought she was dreaming . vival ' amour helped me design the perfect moment and not only did what i wanted , but also added an extra touch of romantism to the event .
i now wish that i had seen vive l’amour before watching the hole , tsai’s most recent release . for whatever reason , i lacked patience for , and interest in , that film . but i now see the end of the hole — when one of the two main characters quite literally reaches out to the other — as a moving portent of optimism and human triumph . quite a step beyond may lin’s endless tears .
i’ve always seen taipei as a city of togetherness . to me , it is an abode of extended family , a lively retreat from the banality of suburban california , and place for holidays and discovery . stifling humidity aside , taipei occupies a relatively positive and nostalgic place in my heart . tsai ming - liang’s 1994 film vive l’amour does not share my perspective . to say the least , its taipei is a horribly lonely place .

lors de sa sortie internationale . le pitch avait tout pour plaire : 3 âmes solitaires se rencontrant dans un appartement mis à la vente . or les interprétations ( mention spéciale à yang kuei - mei lorsqu ' elle ne pleure pas ) et la photographie ( par liao pen - jung & lin ming - kuo ) ne sauvent pas le postulat de départ . on se perd dans ce beau film qui ne présente que trop peu d ' enjeux .
but really , this film could be set anywhere . loneliness , and the cities that cause it , are universal . there’s a heavy silver lining to its silence—you could watch it without knowing mandarin or having subtitles , and still come away with the same sense of utter soulless devastation . in this sense , vive l’amour is ironic in more ways than just its title ; it’s a piece about unanchored souls on which anyone who wants ( though few probably do ) can anchor .
a collaboration between several photography and videography houses , vive lamour is the combination of the talent and passion of some of the top singaporean , malaysian and taiwanese wedding vendors .
on that note , vive l’amour has a fantastically ironic title ; it’s got plenty of lust but absolutely no love . for the most part , its three characters exist in separate spheres—mei never stays long with ah - jung , ah - jung ends up stealing another key and using the apartment for his own purposes , and hsiao - kang hides under the bed when the couple are going at it . furthermore , their activities in the apartment bring only temporary release at best . in the end , all three are still alone , marooned within taipei’s urban desert .
vive l’amour ends with two stunning sequences . in the penultimate scene , hsiao - kang ( lee kang - sheng ) , a closeted and suicidal young man , crawls into bed with ah - jung ( chen chao - jung ) , an acquaintance who is sleeping soundly . tsai’s camera lingers on the two men for several minutes , allowing us to watch — trapped in a moment of almost hitchcockian suspense — as hsiao - kang leans closer and closer , finally kissing the other man on the mouth without waking him . it’s a remarkable performance . lee’s face is written with conflicted emotion : curiosity , terror , longing , shame , joy .
if and when the macrons win — he has made it clear it will be their joint win — one can expect a return to real l’amour in france , even if it is deemed awfully old - fashioned , tedious and utterly bourgeois by most of the disdainful french . macron supporters chant , “brigitte ! brigitte ! ” at his rallies and say their amazing relationship is ‘‘a conversation that is continuing 25 years after their first meeting . ” how lucky ! how lovely ! brigitte herself says , “our love story belongs to us . that is our secret . ”
i got in contact with eric from vive lamour through a friend of mine , who have recently got married & engaged eric for their wedding . i ' ve choosen vive lamour out of all because of their impressive ( morning highlights ) video that they produced for my friend ' s wedding & also the affordable price . as i was hosting a lunch banquet , it is important for me to get a professional team to rush out the video during my 2nd march - in . many other studio couldn ' t commit to that . although there were some hipcups with the video on my weddingday , but thankfully the team managed to rush it out after our 2nd march - in eventually . they were very commited during the filming ( even drones were involved which we were very impressed with ) . many of our relatives & friends comment that our video was very unique & different from the usual . me & my husband was truely satisfied with the video & the team . i ' ll definitely recommend vive lamour to all the wedding couples out there .
the film focuses on three city folks who unknowingly share the same apartment : mei , a real estate agent who uses it for her sexual affairs ; ah - jung , her current lover ; and hsiao - ang , who ' s stolen the key and uses the apartment as a retreat . written by l . h . wong
the end of the film aspires to a grand , antonioni - like gesture with an extended tracking shot of the unhappy mei - mei walking through a desolate urban park . blending allusions to
l ' avventura ,
la notte ,
and
the passenger ,
the scene ends with a prolonged , highly emotional closeup of mei - mei .

for much of the film , the characters co - exist in the apartment without confronting one another . on one occasion , hsiao - kang , to avoid being discovered , hides under a bed on which mei - mei and ah - jung make love . a situation that would normally be played as a bedroom farce is treated instead as a portrait of erotic angst , with overtones of
no exit .
for when hsiao - kang eventually meets ah - jung , he falls secretly in love with him .
both the director and his characters are obsessed with the glossier surfaces of modern life . in this languidly paced film , the camera lingers on the apartment ' s spare , immaculate interiors as intently as on the characters ' grooming habits . one of the apartment ' s attractions is a whirlpool bath in which the characters luxuriously immerse themselves . but as the film makes graphically clear , solitary sensual gratification is no palliative for an underlying sense of emptiness . no sooner has hsiao - kang finished his bath than he slashes his wrist in a half - hearted suicide attempt .
in crucial ways , all three characters are not what they seem . ah - jung tells mei - mei that he works
in imports and exports ,
which seems like stretching things for an unlicensed street peddler who has to hide from the police . hsiao - kang , when alone , acts out an elaborate autoerotic fantasy of himself as a woman . mei - mei , who seems crisp and tough throughout most of the film , is ultimately revealed to be seriously depressed .

at times , the symbolism becomes heavy - handed . hsiao - kang has a job selling cremation containers . and when the movie takes a digressive tour of an enormous mortuary , the metaphor seems pushy .

what a ‘prem kahani’ ! wow ! let’s be honest , one of the main reasons the world is taking such an interest in the presidential election in france is because of one woman . no . not marine le pen . but her chief rival emmanuel macron’s wife brigitte . i confess i am obsessed and intrigued by their extraordinary love story . so is international media . whether le pen wins or macron makes it to the elysee palace has become secondary to the role brigitte will play as first lady , if her husband edges out his rival . macron has made it clear his wife will be by his side — officially , with a defined role , if he makes it as top dog next month . as she well deserves to , given the significant role she has played shaping the life of a man who is quarter of a century younger than her . a man she lovingly describes as ‘‘a character from another planet” .
brigitte first met her future husband as a 15 - year - old student in a conservative jesuit school , where she , a much - married teacher , took classes in latin , french and theatre . her daughter was exactly emmanuel’s age and shared a classroom with the schoolmate who would one day become her stepfather . love bloomed when he was playing the lead role in a milan kundera play and the pupil - teacher spent hours together . according to brigitte , she tried to discourage her desperately young and very ardent suitor by getting him to change schools . but at 17 , he declared he would eventually marry her , no matter what !
and that’s exactly what happened in 2007 , when they exchanged vows , after brigitte obtained a divorce from andre louis auziere , her banker husband ( and father of their three children ) . during his wedding speech , macron thanked her children for “loving us as we are . ” and he told the love of his life , “we’re going to shut people up . ” well , they almost succeeded . today , their relationship has become an issue for political watchers , who are strenuously trying to pick holes in it . critics have suggested macron shares a gay relationship with mattieu gallet , a high - profile radio journalist . but brigitte’s youngest daughter ( 31 ) staunchly declares she has yet to meet a “happier couple” than her mother and stepdad . c’est la vie !
the interesting aspect of their unusual love story is the emphasis placed on the age difference , and little else . never mind that another president across the atlantic is also married to someone 24 years his junior . donald trump is 70 , melania is 46 . men who marry women young enough to be their daughters are admired for their virility and power . it doesn’t quite work the other way around . brigitte is a grandmother of seven . macron visits his step - grandchildren regularly . brigitte’s son sebastien is two years older than him .
amusingly enough , the trogneux ( brigitte’s maternal side ) family are famed chocolatiers specialising in macrons… the jokes never end . despite the taunts , brigitte says , “love carries everything with it . ” the french are more used to philandering presidents and don’t quite know what to make of this monogamous couple . hollande of the scooter helmet fame ( he was caught visiting a movie star , hiding behind it ) broke off with valerie trierweiler , his live - in ladyfriend at the elysee after the scandal broke , and promptly reinstated his ex , segolene royal ( mother of his four children ) , in the cabinet . if that sounds complicated and exhausting , hollande’s predecessors jacques chirac and francois mitterand upheld french tradition and honour by not bothering to hide their mistresses or liaisons . hollande’s predilections earned him the respectful nickname ‘mr normal’ .
it is inspiring and reassuring in our cynical and blasé times , to celebrate the macrons and what they share as equal and loving partners . their age difference is a non - issue . macron , a political newbie , is expected to use his formidable intellect and experience as a banker to provide a fresh direction to his country with en marche ! — a new centre - left party that believes in a more inclusive france and a strong eu . angela merkel’s spokesperson has already hailed his expected victory , as has european commission’s chief . it is only le pen’s sour supporters who have dissed him for what they dub his ‘bling - bling biz’ attitude . we’ll know soon enough who the french want as president . but for me , he has already won the title of ‘president of hearts’ for his daring ‘pyar kiya toh darna kya’ beliefs .

images : congested and noisy exteriors contrast sharply with starkly decorated ( or empty ) interiors . very little dialogue — perhaps ten minutes total in two hour film , the majority of which is built from long takes , often shots of solitary characters suffering in silence . favorite images : hsiao - kang carressing and kissing a melon ; ah - jung sillhouted against a large apartment window overlooking taipei ; may lin looking down a stairwell , where hsiao - kang hides unnoticed ; ah - jung emerging slowly from underneath a bed on which may lin is sleeping .
tsai then cuts to his heroine , may lin ( yang kuei mei ) , who is now walking quickly and alone through a park that is muddied by construction . she wants only to put some distance between herself and ah - jung’s bed , from which she has recently escaped quietly after another night of anonymous sex . lin finally rests at an outdoor amphitheater , where she sits and begins to cry . typical of the director’s style , tsai frames her in a medium close - up , then simply allows the camera to run . the scene lasts for five and a half minutes , during which may lin struggles to find composure . but she is able to do so only temporarily before surrendering , again and again , to the sobs . as dennis lim has said of the scene , tsai fades to black “just as you’ve convinced yourself she could go on weeping forever . ”

three lonely young denizens of taipei unknowingly share an apartment : mei , a real estate agent who uses it for her sexual affairs ; ah - jung , her current lover ; and hsiao - ang , who ' s stolen the key and uses the apartment as a retreat .
the only together is on the edges , and even in orbit of one another , the wholeness and separateness of the body is a silent gulf that swallows up words . everything is buried beneath the surface . cinema of the eyes , of the face , and their inscrutability . it cascades from their eyes and faces .
in a tumble of circumstance , the final scene sees ah - jung and lin having sex on top of a bed , under which hsiao - kang is hiding . he quietly masturbates with them . they stop together and sleep , separated by the thin mattress . his masturbatory echo of their physical connection above him recalls the opening scene in which he stares into his own reflection in a convenience store mirror .
it feels garish to put this into words . if we assume speech to be a metaphor for connection , then we witness here an encapsulation of the spaces between connections . but at the same time , the film tells a complete story with so few words that it puts the lie to that idea ; tsai ming - liang barely needs sound to communicate anything . regardless , the story here , the image we are presented , is one of extreme isolation , one of pure , soul - shivering loneliness . every frame speaks to it ( lin in an empty , ragged building calling for someone to show up ; kang always under the bed , a layer beneath human interaction ) . every action is inspired by it , including the best moment illustrating the rare beauty of the boredom of isolation and how it inspires something like genius ( i refer of course to bowling with watermelon ) .
this is a glacially paced study of three desperately lonely people who all live alone in the same taipei apartment , often at the same time .
the story is pretty simple . three people hold keys to an empty taipei apartment : one is a sexually frustrated , suicidal salesman who , after discovering it still attached to the door , uses it for relief from his tedious life , another is mei lin , a female real estate agent who , for her , is just one of the many apartments she ' s trying to sell . the final key holder is lin ' s lover , who tells her he ' s a boss but is actually an…
this is a beautifully devastating and realistic look at different kinds of loneliness three young people suffer while living in a big city . it ' s a slow movie , but it fits the theme as i also longed for them to have more people to talk to , have more meaningful experiences with etc . instead of simply living and longing for that which they cannot or do not have .

the magic shoes is a 1935 australian short film based on the fairy tale cinderella .

it features the first screen performance by peter finch and helen hughes , daughter of former prime minister william hughes and was the first dramatised movie to be shot at the national studios , built to make the flying doctor ( 1936 ) .

today the magic shoes is considered a lost film .

however 33 production and publicity stills relating to the film were discovered in 2006 .

such footwear sounds fantastical , but these shoes are just one of a number of new experiments revealing how the noises we make have an immediate and profound effect on the way we experience our bodies , on our emotions and our behaviour . the trick here is not in the shoes themselves , but in the way they change the sound of my footsteps .
tapping into these expectations could affect much more than the way we walk . tajadura - jiménez says people who try the shoes often report feeling happier . what’s more , when participants are asked to adjust the size of a virtual avatar to reflect their body shape , after walking in the shoes , they consistently depict their virtual selves as slimmer than before .

. you and your guests may bring ballet - type slippers or flats and leave the heels outside or in the car ( there is no

or
coat check
unless you arrange one ) . you must advise your guests of this policy in advance so they can select appropriate alternative shoes . any damage caused by shoes of any type will be charged to you . be comfortable ! wear flat - heeled shoes ! your feet and our floors will thank you .
predictive coding is a compelling explanation of how these experiments work their magic . “if the sensory feedback you get is not what you were expecting , you update your predictions , ” says tajadura - jiménez . my brain predicted that my footsteps would sound the way that they usually do . these shoes , though , provided unexpected sensory information , and so my brain quickly “corrected” its error , creating an illusion of lightness .
this phenomenon raises the tantalising prospect that simply donning a particular pair of shoes or a headset could help us feel energised , more inclined to exercise – or just happier .

“we had the idea to crowd - source the name from the design and development community , ” hatfield says . “i think we received more than 300 submissions , one of which was presto magic . when you put the shoe on , it fits so perfectly that it’s almost like a magician saying : ‘presto’ . ”

from my short time in tajadura - jiménez’s shoes , i would certainly agree . the feeling of lightness i experienced vanished as soon as i took them off , so i would be keen to have such a trick regularly at my disposal . the experience has also left me with a newfound appreciation of the role sounds play in forming my sense of identity . walk a mile in these shoes , and you’ll never feel the same again .
nike ceo mark parker is a well - known and multifarious collector of objets and fine art , and everything in his office—from the tiffany lamp on his desk to sprinter michael johnson’s gold shoes in the foreground to the mark ryden paintings on the wall—informs his design work .
thankfully , then , bourne ' s gamble has paid off . in even attempting this production , he put art before prudence – and what could be more “red shoes” than that ?
in 2006 , a national film and sound archive intern named ellie bennett was assigned the task of going through and sorting a briefcase full of memorabilia that had been donated by the late cameraman mel nichols , who was , incidentally , part of the production team of the magic shoes . to everyone ' s surprise , amongst the materials within was a roll of nitrate film , containing 33 production stills from the lost short ; an incredible find , given that pictures of helen hughes had , up until that point , been extremely rare , and the fact that these photos would likely be the only pieces of physical evidence of the film ever again seen by the public .

another area in the nsrl : the soccer testing room , where players can run and kick a ball while cameras and sensors measure how their prototype shoes perform . nike does not make its r & d budget public , but everyone in the industry agrees that the company outspends its rivals by orders of magnitude .
in one of beers’ final data - gathering tests , two teams convened in a nike hq fitness center to play a little basketball . some of the athletes wore hyperadapts , and beers stood courtside like an anthropologist , observing closely . when the hyperadapt - wearing players put on the shoes , they started to bend down to tie them and flinched as the shoes sucked up around their feet . wow ! power laces ! as the game got going , one player inbounded the ball , and before heading downcourt he pressed the buttons on his sneakers to tighten them . another hyperadapter was flying around , scoring from everywhere—slashing layups , pull - up jumpers , dunks off fast breaks . as the game wore on he grew more jubilant , and each time he made another basket he’d turn to beers on the sidelines and yell , “it’s the shoes ! ” beers , scribbling in her notepad , just kept listening .
inside the innovation kitchen , on the first floor of mia hamm , an early - 1970s winnebago sits just outside the main conference room and is one of the designers’ preferred meeting spots . in nike’s early days , phil knight drove a similar rv to high school and collegiate track meets all over oregon , hustling shoes .
i begin to walk slowly around the room , and that’s when i experience the most peculiar sensations . the sound of my footsteps changes , and suddenly my lower legs feel lighter and longer . my knees feel looser , and i begin to raise them higher and higher as i walk . my walking speed increases until it’s all i can do not to break into a trot . i feel slimmer , stronger , and full of energy . these are unlike any shoes i have ever worn . ( watch a video of the shoes in action ) .
you have the choice of open or closed toe shoes . brides most commonly pick the closed toe shoe as it hides the stocking toe and is considered more formal . you should also consider both comfort and style when selecting your wedding shoes . it can be a long day and comfort is important - especially if you suffer from sore feet . if so , a lower heel shoe could be a life - saver . sore feet always show on the face . however , if you are brave and feel sexier in high heels , go for it !
“i’m in korea for a production meeting , ” recalls tobie hatfield , nike senior director of athlete innovation , who was serving as a footwear developer at the time , “and everybody was given a pair of recently released shoes . when i put the shoe on and stood up , the collar splayed out . ”
my heels were a closed shoe with open strips at the toe exposing some of my skin . i was still able to wear stockings ! there are certain times of your day when your shoes will be exposed . walking up and down stairs when you lift your gown and the traditional groom ' s removal of the garter at the reception party .

back in early 2000 , “shady milkman” and “rogue kielbasa” read more as eccentric menu items than monikers for groundbreaking running shoes . but that was before an irreverent advertising campaign , designed to underscore the disruptive nature of the newly released nike air presto , turned notions of performance footwear on their heads .
as a rule , i don’t remove my shoes in public . but today i’m making an exception . surrounded by engineers and psychologists , i pull off my converse and step into a pair of rather ordinary - looking brown leather sandals .
the less - than - perfect fit reminded hatfield of feedback he had recently received from a focus group . participating runners had two primary demands : first , they didn’t want their feet to fight their shoes , meaning fit was paramount and , second , they wanted footwear that offered the same comfort that slippers provide .

director ' s statement when i first moved to this country it was very hard for me to fit in with the kids . then one day , someone asked me if i wanted to play basketball . i had never played this great american sport , but i grew up watching michael jordan and magic johnson . this game represented america to me , and the 1992 olympic dream team made it a global phenomenon . my parents moved to this country with almost nothing and put everything they had into creating a better life for our family . this drive and determination has been a major force of inspiration for me throughout the years . the american dream is what brought my family to this country , and kamron’s desire for the air jordans is the representation of that . he dreams of playing basketball , of becoming like the mythical players he has watched on tv , and he thinks it’s as simple as a new pair of shoes . what kamron learns is that the shoes can’t fulfill that dream , but instead hard work , determination , and patience can make him a better basketball player . the film centers around the universal theme of being an outsider and wanting to fit in , and the story is an empowering coming of age moment very close to my heart .

synopsis los angeles , 1992 . nine year - old kamron and his family have just moved to the country from iran in search of the american dream . kamron’s father struggles to maintain dignity in his search for a job , his mother wants to keep persian traditions alive , while kamron is thrust into the hip - hop culture of the 90s . left out of the recess basketball games , kamron fantasizes about impressing his classmates with high - flying dunks - if only he had the right shoes to pull them off ! with the persian new year approaching , kamron is certain that his parents will grant his wish and buy him the new air jordans , but when his parents can ' t afford the pricey shoes kamron is disappointed with a box of budget sneakers . kamron decides to take matters into his own hands - he’ll get those air jordans one way or another , even if it means breaking the law and putting everything his family has worked for at risk . . .
tajadura - jiménez now wants to know if it is possible to harness these peculiar experiences in more profound ways . this is why i find myself standing in my socks . a part of her team’s most elaborate experiment yet , i am handed a pair of sandals fitted with microphones linked to a set of earphones . i don the shoes , put the earphones in , and begin to walk on the vinyl floor .
the sneaker’s full name is the hyperadapt 1 . 0 , the numerals a nod to silicon valley’s always - be - iterating ethos , and it suggests that this shoe is just the start , one early product in a whole multiproduct , multiversion wave of nike gear . the kitchen is already working on future versions that will adjust to your foot automatically and in real time—as a runner’s feet swell , say , the shoes will correspondingly expand on their own , obviating the need for the buttons that allow current prototype users to adjust the fit manually . nike is also working on making other parts of the shoe automatically adaptable—the breathability of the upper , for one , and the cushioning in the sole . when i ask how that would work , hatfield clams up . “i’m not going to tell you more than that . ” he says the whole idea is of a piece with emerging technologies like self - driving cars , like the internet of things .

she sees me gazing mutely at the shoes as if awaiting instructions . “all you have to do is step into it , ” beers says . the second i do so , the shoe emits an electric whizzing noise , like that of a child’s toy . it’s the noise you might make if you were doing the robot . the sound is weirdly satisfying , possibly because it occurs as the shoe embraces my foot in a gentle kind of hug . not long ago , i sprained my right ankle in an embarrassing encounter with a flight of stairs . as a result , my right foot remains swollen . after the whirring subsides , i stand up and look down . on my right shoe the laces are visibly looser , but the grip is no less secure .

when hatfield moved back to nike world headquarters in oregon in 1997 , he and a team of designers continued to work on the project . the fruits of their labor first appeared in the marketplace in 1998 , with the launch of the nike air gauntlet .
the running shoe notably featured a v - notch , as well as single layer stretch mesh in the forefoot and a heel clip made of spring steel , which the wearer could open or close to customize the fit . a virtually seamless interior provided increased comfort . “the goal was for the shoe to be seamless and customizable , ” hatfield says . “when you combined the v - notch with the heel clip , the foot could move and behave more naturally . ”
but bourne and his new adventures troupe have had their misfires too , and the red shoes is a particularly bold undertaking . made in 1948 , powell and pressburger’s masterpiece of british cinema – a parable about the all - consuming nature of making art – took the agony and ecstasy of ballet and magically put it right up on a movie screen , in technicolor so delicious it made you want to drink it down like a milkshake . isn’t taking this most deliriously cinematic of films and plonking it and its balletic subject - matter back on a stage a ridiculous thing to do ?

his time as a pole - vaulter and his degree in architecture from the university of oregon had taught him to prize utility , and it didn’t seem plausible to him that any athlete , even decades in the future , would ever want or need to levitate . hatfield and parker decided to treat the assignment not as a sight gag but , as he recalls , “like someone had asked me to reinvent footwear for actual performance reasons , in the real world , only i had 30 years to figure the technology out . ” and that’s when the idea came to him : “what about a shoe that would essentially come alive when you put it on ? it would sense you . it would become the shape of your foot , and when it came alive it would light up . wouldn’t it be great if shoes could do that ? ”
but hatfield needn’t have worried ; the wear tester didn’t complain about the fit . in fact , he was shocked to hear it was two sizes too small . “in addition to improving the heel fit , the v - notch relieved tension in the collar and created a hinge effect that helped the shoe grow in length , ” hatfield explains .
ok , this is gorgeous…and you can’t go wrong at the parker in ps…great location for a wedding . love the use of colors and all the beautiful pillows and throws .
something like cold fear ran through beers as she considered how to embed a powerful enough battery into a lightweight , streamlined sneaker . “i’m like , they want me to stick this in there ? and add auto - lacing ? are they crazy ? ” she called any company she could think of that manufactured very small motors . she spoke with model - train people , medical - device people . the motor would be used to pull the laces tight—the “lace engine , ” as beers and her team would come to call this mechanism . she flew to europe and asia to attend industry conferences and trade shows . she became an expert in batteries . with the help of a mechanical engineer , she devised a rudimentary fit system , the cabling that would take the place of shoelaces in the sneaker . she breadboarded the electrical component systems she would need and had the kitchen’s cobblers stitch up actual shoes into which she could insert them . trial followed error and was repeated .
“the air zoom drive was a high - tech , fast - paced running shoe , ” hatfield recalls . “but it was still built on the same principles of comfort and fit that were the pillars of the original project . ”
this year’s welcome reception will not only highlight the various elements of the windy city , but will transport you back to the days of al capone and the height of prohibition but don’t let that get your knickers in a twist .
looking to extend the concept to the elite runner , hatfield and team devised the nike air zoom drive , which launched in 1999 . the shoe possessed a more traditional collar , but maintained a near seamless interior and stretch mesh in the upper . the heel clip also returned , but it was now embedded . visible zoom air , a relatively new technology at the time , provided runners with responsive cushioning .
much of what we know about it comes from studying the brain circuits of people subjected to the rubber hand illusion – one of the most well - established experiments into our sense of embodiment . in the classic version , a rubber hand is placed on a table in front of a volunteer , in a natural - looking position , and the person’s own hand is hidden from their view . then they see the rubber hand being stroked , while their real hand is simultaneously stroked in the same way . the experience results in the person perceiving that the fake hand is their actual hand .

these experiments suggest that we carry a mental model of our body – how many limbs we have , for example , and where they are in relation to one another . this model is then constantly updated with sensory information from the outside world , and from special receptors inside the body that sense the movement and position of joints and muscles – called proprioceptors . in the case of the rubber hand , it is the combined visual and tactile input that convinces the volunteer’s brain that the hand is in fact part of their body .
