I recommend watching Jago: A Life Underwater. It relates to Ted Kaczynski's philosophy perfectly. Here's my review of it:

I watched Jago: A Life Underwater, which is about Rohani an 80 year old Indonesian fish hunter on Togian islands from the Bajau tribe. The first half was masculine in the true sense of the word. It details his life as a child growing to become a deep sea diver who hunts fish with an injectable spear from a stick. He thus got the name Jago from his transition into adulthood and true self-reliance. It also touches on the tribal mysticism these Brahui have and their close connection to the spirits of the sea and coral reef.
The 2nd half is a bit sad because Jago had to leave his family to get money for his wife and kids, most likely for some dumb reason like schooling (which is just a system of indoctrination). His son also died when he was gone because he was never there to teach him how to dive.
It also mentioned him learning trawling from Japanese fishermen. The second half seems to have a subtle primitivist critique on modern technological methods of hunting fish like trawling, which has been proven to decrease biodiversity. Jago also mentions in the end he doesn't see as many fish anymore near the coral, and there is in fact more crowding of people now! I think this documentary beautifully complements Ted Kaczynski's philosophy and his notion of the power process.

Actually, I am too tired to write my new philosophical speculation about the "sacred uninhabited spaces", so instead, I will post this review about the biopic Jago: A Life Underwater, which tangentially ties into Ted K's ideas.
