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.

How it feels

This is a short documentary from 1932 about a marching competition held in Varde, Denmark. Groups of people, including costumed participants, men, women, and children, march on snowy roads from the town square and back. Winners receive a trophy, and a crowd gathers to watch despite the cold weather.

What happens

Ribe Amts Tidendes Kolonnemarch i Varde 6. marts 1932 er en dansk dokumentarisk optagelse fra 1932. Søndag den 6. marts 1932 afholder Ribe Amts Tidende kolonnemarch i Varde. Kolonnemarch er en sportsgren, der opstod i 1930'erne, og den vandt indpas i hele landet. Sporten er inspireret af marcher i Tyskland og kan bedst beskrives som en slags kapgang på tid. Vardemarchen er også på tid, og her deltager grupper, udklædte, mænd, kvinder og børn. Den begynder på Varde Torv og fortsætter ud på de sneglatte landeveje for så at slutte på Torvet igen. Her poserer flere af konkurrencens deltagere foran kameraet - herunder vinderne af marchen, der har fået overrakt en pokal. Trods sne og kulde er der mødt mange mennesker op for at se begivenheden.
