"Walter Benjamin said that 'collaboration is a defensive system against the shock of the modern city' and Unica T as a group seems to update this definition by selecting a quiet and passionate medium, the book, to counteract the noise and the hustle of an urban environment.... Collaboration at the outset is anti-hierarchical, freely associative and dynamic. There is always an open dialectic that functions within a checks and balances system. Collaboration is also an arduous and time-consuming process where conflict ultimately finds resolution. Yet Unica T works so well together that is appears seamless. Knowing each other so well, they act and react in unison, yet always maintaining their own identities both in person and in their work." Judith A. Hoffberg (from the essay: Unica T and Collaboration: Art and Life with Collective Vision)
