Line 84:
* [[The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect]] has several characters in a post-[[Technological Singularity]] universe living in white void rooms. Most, though, find that they don't really want to live in a completely featureless white void, and and up decorating their living areas, thus completely missing the point of not owning anything when there's no longer any meaning to concepts like "home".

* The [[Pilot Movie]] of the Showtime series ''[[Odyssey 5]]'' had one of these. It was where a member of a race of [[Sufficiently Advanced Aliens]] rescued the main characters and sent them to save Earth.

Line 91 ⟶ 90:
* Most of the holding chambers in [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer|The Initiative]] are like this.
* For a really obscure example: A 1990s Comedy Central sketch-comedy show called "Limboland" was entirely set in one of these.
* ''[[Penn and& Teller: Bullshit!]]'' takes place in one of these. True to the show's form of pooh-poohing hocus-pocus, though, the camera sometimes pulls out and reveals that the white void is just a set, with cameras and lights and crew (something that is very easy to forget when you only watch TV and movies from one side of the camera).
* ''The Eyewitness'' series of science/nature documentaries feature [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oSNJpoUmJcg an opening sequence ] in which the camera zooms through a kind of [[Mishmash Museum]] with animals of all sorts running about; the walls also have screens and picture frames depicing various images from the natural world.
** The museum itself is shown as being like this throughout the documentaries themselves, with video clips being introduced by the camera panning to the screens and picture frames. It also had the added strangeness effect of the pictures depicted being different every time, because they would be related to the subject matter.
Line 103 ⟶ 102:
* [[Art Attack]]
* An episode of ''[[The X-Files]]'' had Mulder captured and interrogated in one of these rooms.
