Manchester (UK) citizens can volunteer to spend twenty-four hours as simulated Camp X-Ray internees at facsimile of the jewel in the crown of the US WarOnTerrorism®:”This is performance art with a mission to dump state terrorism on the doorsteps of the inner city. It is meant to shock. ‘As art goes, it is pretty straightforward,’ said its creator, Jai Redman, speaking in his guard’s uniform from the other side of locked steel gates.

‘There is nothing complicated about it. This is a fully-operational miniature version of the US internment camp at Guantanamo Bay. What is the point of painting a picture of it or showing photographs or a video of it? People have seen those and are immune to them.

‘I wanted to create a mirror image of the site and place it in the community which is the home of Ron Fiddler [known as Jamal Udeen], one of the British prisoners in the camp, and see what local reaction would be.'” —Guardian.UK
