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
A camera records 15 hours of a mountain landscape and its changing sea and sky. The footage is compressed into eight minutes. It was made to be projected onto a plexiglass screen set inside a false wall and framed like a traditional painting.
