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

Connect with Mark Kelley was a Canadian news talk show, which aired from 2009 to 2012 on CBC News Network. Hosted by Mark Kelley, the show originally aired lived from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. eastern time on weeknights, and then was shortened to an 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. air time, after the creation of The Lang and O'Leary Exchange. The show's team also included Reshmi Nair, Jennifer Hollett and Nick Purdon. Several months before the first airing, Mark Kelley pitched to his executives the concept of a "highly interactive nightly news show" which would use new media technologies. The show debuted on October 26, 2009. The show ended on June 22, 2012 due to budget cuts resulting from the 2012 Canadian federal budget. Kelley went on to join the CBC's weekly newsmagazine series The Fifth Estate. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
