The Procrastinators

by

Last week, we featured five perspectives on procrastination, from the philosophical to the scientific to the comedic. Today, we’re back with more.

The Procrastinators is a fantastic project by Dutch director and artist duo Lernert & Sander, consisting of eleven short films commisoned by limboland.tv, each featuring a monologue by an artist, writer or filmmaker ruminating about “concentration, focus and the fine art of wasting time.”

A beautifully minimalist set of objects representing the speaker’s unique brand of procrastination serves as a backdrop for the narrative.

The remaining episodes of the series will premiere on limboland.tv over the coming weeks.
