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.

How it feels

A travel series that goes beyond typical tourist spots to explore how local people live. The host visits different destinations and focuses on everyday life rather than famous landmarks.

What happens

A Fork in the Road is an Australian travel television series airing on SBS and hosted by Pria Viswalingam. Described by SBS as "the thinking-person's travel show" the program takes the viewer off the beaten track and takes a look at the lives of the people living in each destination rather than following the usual "travel show" format. For the first five series of A Fork in the Road, the show explored the world. The sixth series was called A Fork in Australia and explored locations closer to home. The altogether 62 episodes had a length of ca. 25 minutes each. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
