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 follows Danish ceramicist Birte Weggerby as she works in her studio. It shows her making a large sculptural pot from wet clay through throwing, modeling, decorating, glazing, and firing.

What happens
Birte Weggerby er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1959 instrueret af Kristian Begtorp. Keramiker Birte Weggerby (1927-1982) arbejder i sit værksted med fremstillingen af en stor krukke med skulpturel fremtoning. Fra den våde lerklump vokser krukken gennem drejning og modellering for senere at blive dekoreret - hun blander farver, påfører glasuren, ridser og færdiggør arbejdet - så krukken kan brændes.
