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

Hockenberry is an American television talk show-style current affairs program that aired on MSNBC in 1998 and 1999. It was hosted by and named after journalist John Hockenberry and aired each weeknight. Hockenberry was created as a replacement for The Big Show when host Keith Olbermann departed. The show was canceled in July 1999 after six months. The time slot was filled by Hardball with Chris Matthews. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
