Information.

Background.

The Museum of the Known World (MoKW) is a world-building project that allows viewers to explore the expansive lands of Hirion¹, a fictional steampunk-esc universe, set during a technological age roughly equivalent to 1700-1900’s Europe. Viewers engage with Hirion by searching through the vast libraries of the MoKW, a virtual gallery of artifacts and ephemera analogous to contemporary galleries found in the British Museum or MoMA.


¹ ‘Hirion‘, is the out-of-universe—or meta—name for the “Earth“, of the MoKW, the true name of their world is never mentioned, IE: Westeros in George R.R. Martin’s: A Song of Ice and Fire series.

Navigation.

To explore the MoKW viewers are encouraged to trawl through the vast libraries found below or using the left panel.

Vertically aligned containers constitute collections, horizontally aligned containers: individual artifacts.

Each artifact will have a short blurb next to it providing the reader a background to the piece, and a transcription of the material (see example: #1).

Trigger Warning.

Some of the artifacts in the MoKW deal in themes of colonialism, violence, sexual content, misogyny, and racism.
