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 mixes old archival footage with a single long take shot inside a bank. It was made as part of a project where writers worked with video artists.

What happens

Bank poesi er en eksperimentalfilm fra 1990 instrueret af Steen Møller Rasmussen. Videoen er lavet på opfordring fra Forfatterskolen som led i et projekt, hvor forfattere skulle samarbejde med videokunstnere. Første del af videoen rummer gamle filmstrimler fra fotografens 'gemmer'. Anden del af videoen er optaget i én enkelt indstilling i en bank på Gammel Kongevej. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
