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 documentary shows the large land reclamation projects on the west coast of Amager during 1941. It explains how the state created jobs during the war by expanding the island by one third and digging a new shipping channel for Copenhagen's South Harbour.

What happens

Amager bliver større er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1941 med instruktion og manuskript af Mogens Skot-Hansen. De store inddæmningsarbejder på Amagers vestkyst vises som eksempel på de beskæftigelseforanstaltninger, staten satte i gang under krigen. Et areal, som gjorde Amager 1/3 større, blev inddæmmet. Samtidig blev der gravet en ny sejlrende til Københavns Sydhavn. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
