EmployedBiography:
My name is Dave Soderberg, I am from Denver Colorado and currently design full time for Beatport (beatport.com) as well as freelance under my company: Astrel Creative. I work mostly on interactive design in my free time and interface / interactive for my career. Nothing drives me more than design, the process of creating, and the struggle to constantly be inspired. I am a designer who loves to view, encourage and be inspired by other people's work and creativity. I see design as a constant challenge to communicate something / anything to anyone, whether you're communicating a message or trying to create an interface that is not only beautiful to look at but intuitive to even the most recreational user. Read my blog to see what I've been creating, inspired by or thinking about.

3D Desktop Video
OK, this is insane. This is a 3D Desktop that uses physics to make your desktop act similar to the lifelike way of organizing papers into piles and categories. You've got to watch this!
BumpTop aims to enrich the desktop metaphor with expressive, lightweight techniques found in the real world.

Pretty impressive, but it seems as though the You Tube comments take all the phone out of it!
Yeah, all the internet geeks gotta be downers!...they'll criticize an amazing technology but overlook the fact they live in their parent's basement.
ha ha, good one astrel
So now my computer can be as messy as my real space is that really a good idea? Can I spill a cup off coffee and corrupt my documents too?
haha. I'd imagine not...but that actually made me laugh.
This is a huge step in the way we use desktops! AMAZING! This is as much of a step foreward in the world of computing as the mouse was back in the 70's.
This would be sweet if development continued; I would certainly use it!
i wouldn't mind if my desktop items had organizable physics :D
Thats pretty amazing, hope it will become commercial soon.
holy crap. amazing.
