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 film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Skoleskibet Vikings Kæntring er en dansk dokumentarisk optagelse fra 1907 foretaget af Peter Elfelt. Den 18. marts 1907, mens skoleskibet "Viking" lå ved udrustningskajen på Refshaleøen, blæste det op til stiv kuling og en kraftig byge fik skibet til at kæntre. Skibet kom på ret køl i løbet af 10 dage. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
