The Platform Shoes: (a monthlong event)

Norene Leddy will be offering the public the opportunity to try on
"hacked" platform heels that feature an embedded LCD screen, GPS
transmitters and an audible alarm. Their functionality is based on
extensive interviews with sex workers, and can be viewed as an
extended mediation on pleasure and danger.

The Platforms Store is open:

Try on the Platforms sandals Sept. 15,22, and 29 from 12-6pm. Take them for a spin around the block, and let us know what you think. Demo sandals are available in a variety of sizes up to a women's 12 / men's 10. Aphrodite Team members will be on hand to guide you, answer questions and to take custom orders.

To schedule an appointment, call us at (646) 652-7186 or email us at
appointments AT theaphroditeproject DOT tv. Walk-ins will be
accommodated when possible

Audible Alarm Demonstration Sept. 29
Sept. 29 at 4pm we will hold a live demonstration to show how you can
build your own personal audible alarm system for around $10. The
system is easy to assemble and uses parts available from RadioShack.
No soldering or special skills are required. In addition to shoes,
this alarm can be used in handbags, jackets and other clothing. Email
diy-aferro AT theaphroditeproject DOT tv for more info and a parts
list.
