CHICAGO: Imagine being so close to Martin Luther King Jr as he gives one of the world's most famous speeches that you notice the creases in his face and then realise the late civil rights leader is looking you square in the eye.

That's the intense personal moment organisers are striving for with a one-of-a-kind virtual reality exhibit opening Friday at Chicago's DuSable Museum of African American History. Called "The March", it captures the 1963 March on Washington during which King delivered his iconic "I Have a Dream" address.
