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

Capybara Walking (em tradução livre, Capivara Caminhando) é um curta-metragem mudo do tipo documentário britânico, realizado em 1887 pelo inventor e fotógrafo Eadweard Muybridge, parte de seu estudo à respeito do movimento. Atualmente encontra-se com a licença em domínio público pela data em que foi realizado. Não é um filme como entendemos hoje, mas é uma sequência de fotografias dispostas de forma a criar a impressão de movimento. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
