MOBILE JOURNALISM_

WHAT
This Virtual Reality experience shows the same protest event from various perspectives, giving you a vivid insight into the world of opinion-making.

WHY
In this age of information we are quick to form an opinion based on what is published. But there is more than one version to the stories we hear, see or read. Why not try a different view — it might change your judgement.

HOW
Climb the stage, put on the VR-glasses and enter the scene of a protest march. Be a journalist, a policeman or a protester and see what happens through their eyes. In the meantime the crowd can change the issue at stake by tweeting a hashtag to @mobilejournalism, making the experience even more interactive.

QUOTE
Breaking news is never neutral.
