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

Kongedage i København er en dansk dokumentarisk optagelse fra 1948. Den 89-årige svenske Kong Gustav 5. ankommer til Københavns Hovedbanegård og modtages af Kong Frederik 9., Dronning Ingrid og Dronning Alexandrine. Kareten kører fra Hovedbanegården til Amalienborg, hvor menneskemængden står tæt for at hilse på de to konger. Anledningen til besøget er Kong Frederiks 49 års fødselsdag. Livgarden trækker op, og skolebørn fejrer majestæten foran slottet, mens gaver bliver leveret ved døren. Kongefamilien hilser fra balkonen, og kongen taler til folket, hvor han takker for deres tillid. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
