A new film that uses virtual reality (VR) technology to immerse users in the acid house party movement in 1989 has started its tour of the UK in Birmingham.

The film, In Pursuit Of Repetitive Beats, sees the user become a character in a scene where, before mobile phones were available, party-goers listened to pirate radio for a number to call to find the secret location for a warehouse rave on the outskirts of the West Midlands.

Users are fitted with a VR headset and a haptic suit which allows them to feel vibrations and have two hand-held controllers that allow them to hold and pick things up in the virtual environment.
