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

What happens
Basta was a Flemish television show that aired in January and February 2011 on the Belgian channel Eén. Hosted by Neveneffecten and produced by Woestijnvis, the series incorporates a mix of comedy, current affairs and crime, with Neveneffecten targeting and exposing companies and individuals engaged in fraudulent activities. Such targets included rigged television quiz channels and advance-fee scammers. Although Basta performed successfully, a second season was not produced, as Neveneffecten thought their approach would no longer work due to potential targets being aware of the program.
