Guardian's first virtual reality project goes on show in London

A cell

It is estimated that between 80,000 and 100,000 people are locked in solitary confinement in the United States. They have little or no human contact.

The Guardian’s first virtual reality project, 6x9 – named after the typical dimensions of a solitary confinement cell – places the viewer in a virtual cell, simulating the psychological effects of sensory deprivation.

Now, for six days in May and June, we are hosting the project as a physical installation. Come and view this powerful virtual reality experience and talk to the people who made it.

  • Dates: 25 to 27 May and 1 to 3 June
  • Time: 1pm-8pm
  • Address: The Guardian, 90 York Way, London N1 9GU
