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 Danish newsreel from 1938 shows three events. First, a Russian steamship with a heavy list arrives in port after stormy weather. Then a viaduct in Copenhagen is moved eight meters but the work is delayed by a cracked bridge pillar. The reel ends with a packed indoor tennis match.
