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 is a very short silent film from 1887 showing a woman bending to pick up a child. It is a sequence of still photographs arranged to create the illusion of movement. The work was part of Eadweard Muybridge's research on how humans move.

What happens
Woman Picking Up Child (em tradução livre, Mulher pegando criança) é um filme mudo estadunidense em curta-metragem realizado em 1887, parte do estudo do inventor e fotógrafo britânico Eadweard Muybridge à respeito do movimento dos seres. Foi realizado na Universidade da Pensilvânia, onde Muybridge trabalhou durante quatro anos, entre 1883 e 1886, estudando a locomoção humana e animal. Não se trata de um filme como entendemos hoje, mas de uma sequência de fotografias de apenas alguns segundos, dispostas de forma a criar a impressão de movimento. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
