About this Event
Join Lytisha as her mind wanders through a whole host of ideas sparked by the sounds of the MRI scanner. Examine the important questions in life - what did the Concorde sound like? Can mental dancing affect a scan? What flavour ice-cream should she have next? All the big questions. When you arrive for your ‘appointment’ you will be greeted by a member of the team who will guide you through to the ‘treatment area’ where you will put on the VR headset, lay back and relax. Surrounded by the sounds of the scanner, you will then be led on an unexpected journey. After your feedback is encouraged and there is a small exhibition. Please note: This is a poetry experience using Virtual Reality headsets. VR headsets are suitable for 13+, proof of age may be requested. This exhibition contains flashing images.

"A fabulous use of technology which blends poetry and well-being, giving the user a journey through the mind of the poet [..] Very authentic voice, a believable and entertaining experience”
