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

ManSpace is an Australian television series that airs on 9Go! and repeats after midnight on the Nine Network. It began airing on 26 May 2014. It is hosted by Dan Anstey with Shane Jacobson and Dale Vine. The program endeavours to showcase the most impressive man caves and collectors from across Australia, and also addresses men's issues and special interests. Season 1 was filmed in front of a live studio audience, whereas season 2 was shot on location. Other contributors include comedian Des Dowling, former AFL players Brett Stephens and Michael Gale, aka “Moose and Butch”, and former Sale of the Century model Murray Bingham. Shane Jacobson was involved in life-threatening accident whilst filming a segment for the show in 2015, when his Polaris racing buggy flipped multiple times during a competition. Whilst the incident appeared serious he was uninjured. The show is based on the Australian magazine of the same name (ManSpace Magazine), which is published by Connection Magazines.
