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

Tidevand og marsk er en dansk undervisningsfilm fra 1957. Vadehavet, fra Varde i nord og ø-rækken syd over, er præget af tidevandet, der bevirker flytning af enorme vandmasser fire gange i døgnet. Ved højvand aflejres klæg, og når aflejringen har nået en passende tykkelse inddiges området, og der fremkommer frugtbare marskenge. Indvindingen af nyt landbrugsjord fremmes ved såkaldt grøbling og ved indretning af slikgårde, og marsken afvandes ved hjælp af elektriske pumpestationer. Marskengene anvendes til græsning, og der dyrkes havre, roer og hør. Fra åerne ledes fersk vand til kreaturerne ud i grøftesystemet. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
