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

Panorama of Eiffel Tower je americký němý film z roku 1900. Režisérem je James H. White (1872–1944). Film trvá necelé 2 minuty. Přestože Eiffelova věž byla dostavěna teprve v roce 1889, nejedná se o její první filmové zobrazení. Například už bratři Lumièrové v roce 1898 vytvořili snímek Panorama pendant l'ascension de la Tour Eiffel, ve kterém nabídli podívanou ze stoupajícího výtahu věže na nedaleký Palais du Trocadéro.
