The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Danmarks skolehaver 1903-1928 er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1928 med ukendt instruktør. På et Danmarkskort angives, hvor i landet der findes skolehaver. København 1927: man skal først meldes ind, herefter lærer man at grave, skuffe, rive, luge osv. Der undervises i frugtræets forædling og barkpodning, samt såning af ærter. Pigerne plukker blomsterbuketter. Der prikles tomater, potteplanter omplantes, kål udplantes, gulerødder tyndes ud. Skolehaverne har også bistader. Kartofler luges, vandes og hyppes. Endelig skal der høstes afgrøder, og der er så meget, at forældrene må hjælpe med transporten. Sæsonen afsluttes med præmieuddeling - flotte blomsterbuketter og store kålhoveder. Der er også potteplanteudstilling i Zoologisk Have. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
