what's Moments of the Unknown?
Moments of the Unknown is an immersive art project created by filmmaker and artist Justin Aversano. It documents a year-long odyssey across all seven continents, captured on Super-8 film to portray the essence of human diversity and shared humanity. Each frame weaves a cinematic tapestry that invites viewers to connect with universal themes of belonging, love, and oneness. The project extends into the NFT space through collaborations like Artblocks, generative art exhibitions, and daily Polaroid drops auctioned on X (formerly Twitter). Collectors bid on unique "moments," fostering a community via live Spaces discussions. Screenings and events, such as at Glitch Marfa, blend physical and digital experiences, making the unknown accessible and collectible.
"Moments of the Unknown" ends April 7, 2026, with daily Twitter Spaces as NFT oral history.
