Synopsis

Sally is in the digital world. Sally watches, listens and learns. Sally generates through the digital language. Sally wonders, is Sally OHOIOrOI? Maybe Sally is a part of OHOIOrOI. But this film was made with 0% OHOIOrOI.

Director's Comment

Working in a moment when AI keeps advancing by the day, I wanted, as an animator, to see whether I could stay free of its influence — so I made every part of this film by hand, testing the limits of what I could still do on my own. Centered on Celie, a character who confuses her own identity with an AI's, the film uses music to convey the confusion I see in the world around me right now.

Program Note

Movement is animation's very core. In [OHOIOrOI Syndrome], the world, its concept, and its music all reach the audience through movement alone. Glitch effects, lines, and polygons cycle through endless variation, making the same space feel newly seen each time, and the audience follows that movement to reinterpret the film as it unfolds. The work shows just how far animation can stretch when its only language is movement.
