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

The film shows a section of a wall in an exhibition space and projects that same section back onto the same spot. It points to the relationship between the artwork and its display.

What happens

Væg # 3 er en dansk eksperimentalfilm fra 1999 instrueret af Lone Haugaard Madsen. Jeg har filmet et udsnit af en udstillingsvæg og projiceret dette op på nøjagtig samme sted. Selve handlingen (det jeg har gjort) er vigtig. Jeg peger på nogle udstillingsmæssige sammenhænge. Lone Haugaard Madsen. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
