File System

3D File System

A method of visualizing a file hierarchy in 3D.
Metaphors to tree / root / branch.

Spheres represent folders, tiles are files

 

TO-DO:

  1. Show simple file info on face of tile.
  2. Show detailed file info on hover.
  3. Record a deep sub-folder tree.
  4. Try to attach to my actual file system.
 

Testing the interpolation / look-at
