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

Mooie woorden was een Nederlandse 15-delige sociolinguïstische programmaserie over taal en taalgebruik, die tussen 1993 en 1995 werd uitgezonden door de educatieve omroep RVU. Het idee was van de toenmalige programmadirecteur van de RVU Gerard Kempers, de makers waren de neerlandica Hanneke Houtkoop, en de programmamaker Theo Uittenbogaard. Onderzoekers waren oud-studenten van Hanneke Houtkoop aan de Universiteit van Utrecht, de latere radiomaker/auteur Mathijs Deen en de latere tv-maker Maaik Krijgsman. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
