We are very excited to invite you to the launch event of 'Seeing I'. An ambitious and interesting project which we have worked on for the last year with the artist Mark Farid.

'Seeing I' looks at the construction of identities though culture and technology. The project will document Mark living within the setting of a gallery space for 28 days wearing a Virtual Reality Headset, through which though he will be living someone else's life. This will be made into a documentary, directed by John Ingle, which will look at the experience itself and the implications of these digital mediators on our behaviour and as a result, our identity.

This is a very complex project and involves various factors which range from developing bespoke technology to specialist health care. We are looking to raise the funds through crowdfunding - for which we ask for your help.

On Monday 17th November we will launch the project and the Kickstarter campaign at Bl-nk, near Old Street station. We would be grateful if you could come, hear and see more about the project. If you like it spread the word and maybe even donate – any small amount would help!

Thank you and look forward to seeing you.
