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

Triple J TV (stylised in all lowercase) was the name given to a series of Australian television programmes that aired on ABC1, ABC2 and online from July 2006, as a television spin-off of national radio broadcaster Triple J. The series focused on youth-oriented programming of music, interviews, comedy, currents affairs and documentaries. Triple J manager Linda Bracken said the expansion into audiovisual programming was a natural progression for the brand, and that "for Triple J to remain relevant to a youth market we had to be more than a radio station." Founded as jtv, its first broadcast was on 28 July 2006, and the first live programme, a You Am I concert recorded live from the Hyde Park Barracks, Sydney, was hosted the following night. On ABC1, six hours a week was dedicated to Triple J TV content, mostly scheduled on Friday and Saturday nights. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
