Abstract: The Visit, an interactive VirtualReality experience, developed from a research project conducted by artists and psychologists working with women living with dementia. Visitors are invited to sit with Viv, a life-sized, photorealistic animated character whose dialogue is created from verbatim interviews, drawing us into her world of perceptual uncertainty.
