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 documentary shows how hip hop culture came to Bahia, Brazil and blended with local artistic styles. Young people in the suburbs use graffiti, break dance, rap, and DJing to express themselves and share their ideas through radio, newspapers, and word of mouth.

What happens

Hip Hop com Dendê est un film documentaire brésilien réalisé par Fabíola Aquino et Lílian Machado, sorti en 2005. Reflet d’un mouvement qui a déjà acquis des millions d’adeptes dans le monde, le hip-hop est arrivé à Bahia et a conquis une grande partie de la jeunesse de ses banlieues qui mêle les éléments typiques de ce mouvement - graffiti, break dance, rap, DJ, MC – et son idéologie – avec les expressions artistiques locales. Ils découvrent ainsi des manières alternatives de s’exprimer et de communiquer, à travers les radios et les journaux locaux, Internet, et surtout le bouche à oreille. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
