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 series is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

The Organization is a British television drama series, produced by Yorkshire Television for the ITV network in 1972. The series, written by Philip Mackie, was set in the offices of the fictional Greatrick Organization, a faceless multi-million pound corporation dedicated solely to profits and more profits. Peter Egan starred as new junior executive Richard Pershore, struggling to navigate his way through the corporate minefield, surrounded by more experienced and ambitious players. Through the course of seven episodes, The Organization features all the executive members of the public relations team at Greatrick. The series was repeated on Channel 4 in 1987 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
