Unknown Unknowns (2010)
Mixed Media

Unknown Unknowns is a multimedia research library for an imaginary film. The film revolves around the worst-case scenario of a mid-air collision over Wembley Stadium on FA Cup Final day. The library consists of texts for auditions, location analysis and stunt coordination as well as computer simulations of flights, supporting photographic studies and objects. The library provides a platform to probe key themes and techniques characterising the complex nature of crisis management and risk analysis.

In collaboration with Denis Smith, Professor of Risk and Resilience at Glasgow University.

The project was funded by the EPSRC and the Royal College of Art.
