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

Indigenous Art Adventures is a Canadian children's television series, which premiered in 2024 on Aboriginal Peoples Television Network. Hosted by Lance Cardinal, a two-spirit visual artist and educator from the Bigstone Cree Nation, the series features Cardinal demonstrating First Nations art projects using everyday household objects. The program has its roots in a series of YouTube videos that Cardinal created for his own Family Art Adventures channel prior to being picked up by APTN. The series won the Canadian Screen Award for Best Children's or Youth Non-Fiction Program or Series at the 13th Canadian Screen Awards in 2025. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
