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 short series presents historical Australian figures as acted characters. A fictional interviewer played by Alastair Duncan talks with them on screen. Each episode runs about ten minutes.

What happens
Time Out is an Australian television series which aired 1963 on Sydney station ATN-7. The first episode aired on 9 March 1963, though it is unclear when the series ended. The 10-minute series aired after the ATN-7 evening news (which aired in a 20-minute time-slot), and consisted of TV and stage actors portraying Australian historical figures, who were "interviewed" by a faux-interviewer played by actor Alastair Duncan. 26 episodes were produced. It had a spin-off titled Tribunal. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
