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

This film takes place in a city's public streets. The camera is set up in selected spots and left to capture whatever happens, showing the movement of traffic, bicycles, and pedestrians.

What happens

Tiden på gaden er en film instrueret af Cai-Ulrich von Platen. Filmen foregår i en by. I det offentlige rum, på gaderne mellem husene. Gaderne domineres af trafikken. Den store målrettede bevægelse af biler, cykler og fodgængere på vej fra et sted til et andet. Med filmudstyret lastet på en budcykel kørte jeg rundt i byen, og stillede kameraet op på udvalgte steder. Jeg trykkede på knappen, og lod tilfældet råde. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
