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

Based on the real shoplifting arrest of actress Hedy Lamarr, Andy Warhol made a black and white film where a man plays Lamarr. A policewoman takes her to court with a judge, and the Velvet Underground provides the music.

What happens

Hedy (případně The 14 Year Old Girl nebo Hedy the Shoplifter) je americký film, který natočil režisér Andy Warhol podle scénáře Ronalda Tavela. Reaguje na zatčení herečky Hedy Lamarrové kvůli krádežím v obchodě. Hereččinu roli ve filmu ztvárnil Mario Montez. Roli policistky, která herečku zatkla, hrála Mary Woronov, přičemž šlo o její první roli ve Warholově filmu. Dále se v něm objevili například Gerard Malanga, Ingrid Superstar a Jack Smith. Roli soudce ztvárnil scenárista filmu Ronald Tavel. Jde o černobílý film, natočený na 16mm kameru. Hudbu k němu vytvořili dva členové skupiny The Velvet Underground, jejímž byl Warhol manažerem, multiinstrumentalista John Cale a kytarista Lou Reed. Hudba je směsí violy, elektrické kytary a klavíru. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
