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.

What happens

D.A.F.T.: A Story About Dogs, Androids, Firemen and Tomatoes is a video collection by French electronic music duo Daft Punk that was released on March 28, 2000. It features music videos of six tracks from their album Homework (1997). Though its title derives from the appearance of dogs ("Da Funk" and "Fresh"), androids ("Around the World"), firemen ("Burnin'"), and tomatoes ("Revolution 909") in the videos, there is no actual cohesive plot connecting any of the episodes. The video features four singles and an album track from their critically acclaimed debut album, Homework. Each of the music videos features a "making of" documentary, except for the album track "Rollin' & Scratchin'", whose music video is a live performance in Los Angeles, California.
