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

One-Hit Wonders is a television series airing on VH1 featuring artists who were unable to get a big break into popular music. The series began airing on July 29, 2002. Originally hosted by KROQ/Los Angeles DJ Jed the Fish, his central point was that it's difficult enough for artists to have one hit, and that the real wonder is artists who continue to hit.
