“Known + Unknown” is an artist collective of folks who are trying to make a new kind of media for consumption. They work to tear down the influences of media overuse, through calming videos and thought-provoking poems.
Media can disrupt, interrupt, and sway people, friends, families, nations, and societies. I wonder if creating media about the state of the world will have any impact on our use of technology to ‘mind our minds’ and ’embody our lives,’ by making us think about the state of things in our artificial and natural environment.

Meaning full
These explorations are meant to pose questions around the viewers quest for a deeper connection to the world, and make them inspired to fight against the growing amount of mediocre media.
Heed healing
Can videos that help us examine ourselves be used to heal our inner reliance on media itself, by forcing us to reconsider our relationship with it in the first place?
Will to think
Can these explorations allow for a greater awareness of the state of the world as it relates to: digital and phsyical privacy, the loss of the natural world, and increasing reliance on modern day conveniences?
Delve into your inner depths which existed long before these digital spaces we inhabit. Become one with how you transfer your energy throughout your daily lives to others and the natural and digital worlds.
