Netherlands, 2021

The film is a timeline of 301 fleeting visions based on one WhatsApp message of the day, connected through their titles and their direct environment in a period that is under the influence of restriction, fear, loneliness, frustration, and all emotions triggered by COVID-19. The “haikuesque” interpretations of the messages we receive are an artistic audio-visual translation of the current socio-political situation of our environment in the Netherlands. By using AR we aim to create an interactive experience for the audience to engage with their surroundings.

Claire (24) and Coco (27) are two recently graduated autonomous artists and filmmakers. Claire has a background in experimental film and games. Her projects were internationally screened and her game won an IGF. Coco combines her interest in multimedia and documentary filmmaking. She has worked with several major Dutch musicians, of which one collaboration was screened in the Afas Live. What they have in common is their constant curiosity to look for artistic and social potential beyond the conventional. Eeny Meeny Motion Pictures is the artist’s first collaboration and non-study related debut.
