Ognosia (French ognosie, Polish ognozja)—a narratively oriented, ultrasynthetic process that, reflecting objects, situations, and phenomena, tries to organize them into a higher interdependent meaning; cf. → plenitude.

Colloquially: the ability to approach problems synthetically by looking for order both in narratives themselves and in details, small parts of the whole.

A handicap in terms of ognosia is manifested in the inability to perceive the world as an integral whole, that is, seeing everything in isolation; this creates a disturbance in the function → of insight into situations, synthesizing and associating apparently unrelated facts. In ognosia therapy frequently used are methods of treatment through the novel (short stories are also used on an outpatient basis).
Olga Tokarczuk, “Ognosia”, translated by Jennifer Croft

Planet Ognosia is an uncharted reality, the land of the unknown that leaks through the cracks of what we think we know. It's a practice of collective embodied storytelling.
