In 2016, the United Nations launched an investigation in the UK that found "grave or systematic violations" of the rights of people with disabilities in the context of the changing benefits system. The mixed reality experience MUSEUM OF AUSTERITY allows visitors to hear the stories of those affected through a visit to a holographic gallery and see first-hand what happens when the rhetoric of the state and the lived reality of citizens tell different stories. The project won the IDFA DocLab Award for immersive non-fiction for its impressive combination of digital technologies and inclusive storytelling.
Co-produced by Trial And Error Studio, ETT and National Theatre Immersive Storytelling Studio
