Catalogue produced in conjunction with the multi-venue two-part exhibition. The first segment, entitled Unknown Unknowns, consisted of two videos, shown at Ed Video, and an installation, shown at Elora Centre for the Arts. The other segment, entitled Formulation Pixelation Articulation, was shown at Georgia Scherman Projects, Volta 7, Basel, Switzerland. Through the two videos shown at Ed Video, Marman and Borins create "an atmosphere of power, illusion and suspicion [...] urging viewers to contemplate how systems of information collection, control and security may affect them personally." The installation component of Unknown Unknowns shown at the Elora Centre for the Arts "reveals tangible examples of data control, redaction and disclosure" (quotes taken from page 3 of the catalogue).

Catalogue contains in-situ photographic documentation of the exhibitions and critical writing by the curators. The two exhibitions documented in this catalogue were organized by Ed Video, the Elora Centre for the Arts and Georgia Scherman Projects and were curated by Scott McGovern, Julie Rene de Cotret, Jennifer Marman and Daniel Borins respectively.
