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

Inside Olympia is a weekly Washington State public affairs TV show on the TVW network that began airing in 1998. The show features in-depth, one-on-one interviews and panel discussions with major figures in Washington State government and public affairs, including state governors, executive cabinet-level agency leaders, state legislators, and labor union leaders. The show is considered a major component of the services that have earned TVW the nickname "Washington state’s own C-SPAN." Inside Olympia has been hosted by Northwest News Network reporter Austin Jenkins since 2008. From 2003 to 2008, the show was hosted by capitol reporter and later Washington State Public Disclosure Commission chair David Ammons, who took the place of TVW co-founder and later Lieutenant Governor of Washington Denny Heck. The first host was Barry Mitzman, formerly of KCTS-TV. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
