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

Íslands Nýjasta Nýtt (ÍNN) (English: Iceland's Newest of the New) was a privately owned, Icelandic television station, which launched on 2 October 2007. The channel was controlled by Ingvi Hrafn Jónsson, former news director of the Icelandic governmental TV station RÚV and Stöð 2. ÍNN mainly broadcast talk shows about politics and daily life. Among the original programs on the channel were: Hrafnaþing, Óli á Hrauni, Í nærveru sálar, Borgarlíf and Í kallfæri. In October 2016, the station was bought by Pressan ehf. In September 2017, Frjáls Fjölmiðlun bought the station but in November the same year, it ceased broadcasting due to financial difficulties and went bankrupt. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
