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

Duran Duran Video 45 (or technically just Duran Duran, as Video 45 was the format) is a two-track video EP by Duran Duran. It was released in 1983 by PMI in the UK and Sony in the US. The release was originally intended to be like a video single, hence the Video 45 nomenclature. The EP was released in both the VHS and the Betamax format. The VHS release included the "day" version of "Girls on Film" as well as the video for "Hungry Like the Wolf", while the Beta release included the "night" version of "Girls on Film" instead. The Beta versions were included in the Duran Duran video album later in the year. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
