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 looks at research done by Irish scientists around the world. It covers projects like a possible Alzheimer's treatment and a camera that observes ancient cosmic events. Each episode explores a different topic such as space, aging, or climate change.
