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

Fashion File is a Canadian television series that aired on CBC Television and CBC Newsworld, as well as internationally in syndication, from 1989 to 2009. The series covered fashion industry news. Fashion File was created and developed by Karen Morrison, who served as the series producer and director. The series was hosted from its inception until 2006 by Tim Blanks, who left at the end of that year to join the Canadian fashion magazine Flare as editor-at-large. Over the winter of 2007, CBC aired Fashion File Host Hunt, a short-run reality show in which ten finalists competed to become the show's new host. Adrian Mainella was selected as the winner. Other contestants included Peter Papapetrou, Manny Neubacher, Justin Singh, Paul Pogue, Mary Kitchen, Stephanie Pigott, Jamey Ordolis, Raji Sohal, and Henrietta Southam. Judges included fashion editors Bronwyn Cosgrave and Suzanne Boyd, and Fashion File executive producer Réjean Beaudin. The show was later hosted by Michelle Mama. As of the end of March 2009, Fashion File was cancelled by CBC Television. The press release cited the "current financial situation" as the reason for its cancellation. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
