In 1969, prior to the launch of Sweden’s second national television station (SVT2), staff in the editorial office for children’s programming at Sveriges Television were asked to conduct a survey of children to learn what they might want to i find out about on television. The results of this survey formed the basis for the development of new content and planning for many years to come.

The collection of questions seems nowhere to be found. In an attempt to recreate the survey we held a series of workshops in Kalmar, Moscow and Umeå during the autumn of 2021. At the workshops, conversations and activities were aimed at identifying questions that children cannot find answers to in a contemporary media landscape, generally viewed to offer unlimited access to information and knowledge. The work was produced as part of "TV Trampoline."
