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 eight part docudrama tells the story of several influential American businessmen from the 19th century. It focuses on figures like Cornelius Vanderbilt and John D. Rockefeller and how they shaped the nation's industry. The series uses dramatic recreations to show their projects and rivalries.
