3 things are certain in life.

Death, taxes and a family chat group on Whatsapp.

What’s your family chat group like?

Ever wondered what other family

chat groups are like?

The current climate has provided Hatch an opportunity to explore a new collaborative work using an unconventional but ordinary digital medium; WhatsApp. Over the years, WhatsApp group chats have grown to become a ‘place’ to gather, gossip and share stories much like a digital coffee shop.

Keturunan Ruminah (Ruminah’s Family) is a new drama that unfolds entirely through a WhatsApp messaging platform in real time. Audiences are invited to experience Ruminah’s family group chat; the terrible typos, the annoying audio notes or the unnecessary visual stimuli. Join the group, sit back and watch as the story transforms in the palm of your hand.
