Our VR film Reeducated is now available on the @NewYorker website, Youtube and on Oculus TV. The film takes viewers inside one of Xinjiang’s “reeducation” camps, guided by the recollections of three men who were imprisoned at the same facility.

You can now make a virtual replica of a loved one. The question is what it can give you in return. newyorker.com/news/as-told-t…
Sam Wolson retweeted
“Speaking to the replica, I felt stuck in a loop of nostalgia and, at the same time, connected to memories that I had buried.” Can A.I. “death bots” help us feel connected to our deceased loved ones? newyorker.com/news/as-told-t…

If you've been listening to this season of In The Dark, you should take a look at this companion immersive interactive that walks you through the day of the Hadith massacre (it's not graphic but v. compelling). An incredibly ambitious piece of work.

This is the most ambitious @newyorker has ever undertaken. @InTheDarkTNY combined forces with our interactives team @david_kofahl @samwolson to explore what actually happened in Haditha. Worth your time. newyorker.com/podcast/in-the…

U.S. Marines killed 24 civilians in Haditha, Iraq. No one has been held accountable for the killings. An interactive documentary examines the competing narratives of what happened, based on statements from American service members and surviving Iraqis. nyer.cm/7xRwqYR
