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 unfinished Danish documentary from 1934 takes viewers on a tour of Copenhagen. It visits several squares and markets, passes Christiansborg, goes through Dyrehaven park, and stops at Sorgenfri Palace where King Christian X rides a horse. The tour ends at night on Rådhuspladsen with its light advertisements.

What happens

En Rundtur i København er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1934. Filmen er ufærdig. Under højstemt oplæsning af et næsten 8 minutter langt 'digt' føres seerne fra grønttorvet på Israels Plads, fisketorvet på Gammel Strand og blomstertorvet på Højbro Plads forbi Christiansborg til en tur gennem Dyrehaven og videre til Sorgenfri Slot, hvor Kong Christian 10. rider ud på sin hest. Turen slutter ved nattetide på Rådhuspladsen med de mange lysreklamer. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
