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

HUMANIA is a communication project with development purposes. It started as a TV program in channel Documanía (in the Spanish Digital Plus platform) broadcasting from January 2005 to 2007, showing TV material from a wide range of NGOs like Red Cross, Intermón, Oxfam, Amnesty International, etc. It was awarded with the second prize for TV by UNICEF(2005). Humania was the first broadcasting program created by a Foundation (Mundo21, registered in Spain) and probably is a pioneer initiative in Europe. Since mid-2007, TV material is offered directly and worldwide through the web site, including sections with daily news in Spanish (Noticias), Radio and Agenda, all of it focused in news from the third sector. Fundación Mundo 21 is the result of more than 10 years working for the implementation of information technologies for human development, education and knowledge exchange. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
