City Walks: Virtually Wander Through Various Cities Around the WorldDo you miss walking and exploring different cities, in the way one might have done before the pandemic? Well, here’s a website that can temporarily satisfy the need to travel and unwind. Meet City Walks, a web platform developed by married programming duo Aristomenis Georgiopoulos and Artemis Stiga. The platform displays videos of people walking around in different parts of the globe. What makes watching them travel through these streets engaging is the perspective. The camera angle makes you feel like you’re the one walking around, not them. I admit that I might have spent too long toggling through different city options, it’s very satisfying!In addition to City Walks, the couple collaborated with Lux and Wunderman Thompson to create In Her Shoes, a social experiment that takes a stand against casual sexism. In Her Shoes follows the same format of its predecessor, but portrays the point of view of men and women walking around Cairo, Egypt (for now).  Those videos show how people react around them. The experiment aims to showcase the problems that women face every day due to their appearance or the way they dress, and to portray the difference in how men and women interact with the environment around them. Image screenshots via City Walks #citywalks #inhershoes #travel #webplatform #walking #application
