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.
How it feels
This series tells the stories of seven major engineering projects from the Industrial Revolution. Each episode uses dramatized scenes and narration to show how these structures were built and the people behind them.
