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 how pineapples are grown and harvested in the Philippines. It then follows the fruit through a factory where they are peeled, cleaned, canned, and packed for shipping.

What happens

Ananas fra Philippinerne er en dokumentarfilm instrueret af Hakon Mielche. På ananasmarkerne er plukningen i fuld gang. De modne fruger brækkes af og samlet sammen, hvorpå rester af planterne fjernes og topskuddene brækkes af. Disse plantes igen og giver høst ca. 22 måneder senere. På henkogningsfabrikken er processen følgende: På et bredt og langt transportbånd føres frugterne til afskylning. Herfra føres de til en skrællemaskine, som fjerner skal og midterstok. Pletter fjernes af to lange rækker af kvinder, som står på hver side af båndet. Frugterne anbringes derefter i dåser, som lukkes og koges i 15 min. De færdige dåser pakkes ned i kasser af en ny række kvinder. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
