NIGHT/SHIFT is a transmedia experience project by Amsterdam-based collective Schone Vormen. The work gradually unfolds through various media leading up to a film, where Shanna Soh and Cyril Tjahja share their experience of taking the bus 77, which they frequently took during their artist residency at Tentacles Gallery.


"NIGHT/SHIFT captures a glimpse to the lives of a group of Bangkok city dwellers within the confines of a bus at night. It is about those who work the night shift in an urban setting: the people who work on the bus, including ourselves, and perhaps most of the passengers too. We started filming everyday, exactly as the day shifts into the night."
