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

A Danish documentary from 1988 that uses overexposed footage, white surfaces, and simple bright colors. It shows how people pollute the world while heaven cries but no one notices.

What happens

Heaven cries for no one er en dansk dokumentarfilm fra 1988, der er instrueret af Leif Andruszkow. Sub-pop-video performed med Andruszkow & The Act. Ideen er at arbejde visuelt med hvide flader og enkle klare farver, der samkopieres. I optagelserne er overbelysning brugt som basiseffekt. I teksten græder himlen over, at folk forurener verden, men den græder forgæves - for ingen bemærker det. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
