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.
How it feels
This is a stop-motion animation of Shibuya's famous scramble crossing. It uses 1,000 tiny model characters called Genki-kun to re-create the busy crowd. The series shows the crossing from different angles as the figures move across it.
