Wikipedia: „White torture is a type of psychological torture that includes extreme sensory deprivation and isolation. Carrying out this type of torture makes the detainee lose personal identity through long periods of isolation.“

„(...) The prisoner is locked in a completely white, soundproof room. The color white is used to hit all the senses:

The sight:
White lights are coming from neon tubes positioned in a way not to create any shadow, and the prisoner is dressed in completely white clothes.

Hearing:
The room is soundproof or alternatively it is located in a remote place where voices cannot be heard. In this latter scenario the guards stand in silence and use special padded shoes in order to avoid causing any noise.

Tact:
All surfaces are smooth

The taste and smell:
Each day they are served white food, usually unseasoned rice to deprive them of the senses of taste and smell.

Although it may seem less formidable than other corporal punishment, this torture leads quickly to hallucinations and has long-term adverse effects. The prisoners can be kept in this state for months or even years, and once outside the room the psychological consequences will be permanent.“
