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

Jeg var gul er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1972, der er instrueret af Jørgen Lyd Nielsen, Steen Lange og Steen Mayne. Sporvognswestern fra Linje 5's sidste tur i april 1972. Alt i alt har København mistet nogle meget fornemme transportmidler, og dette tab lader sig ikke erstatte uden videre... Det er en gåde, hvordan man har tilladt embedsmænd og politikere at forvalte byens fælles ejendom så talentløst, som det er sket med udryddelsen af disse for København så typiske og fine, gule sporvogne.
