A Journey through the Dark Side of the City
Multiscreen film installation, 2016
Across the last eight years Unknown Fields have undertaken thirteen expeditions through the distributed territories that lie behind the scenes of the contemporary city. The nomadic studio travels with documentary film equipment, hidden cameras, drones and sound recording gear to capture the extraordinary conditions that the networked city and its associated technologies has set in motion. These landscapes have been assembled together to form a road movie through Unknown Fields’ reimagined city, a continuous structure that stretches across the earth.

Dir. Unknown Fields
