Abstract

We propose an inherently three-dimensional interaction paradigm which allows individuals to manage their personal digital artifact collections (PAC) regardless of the specific devices and means they are using. The core of our solution is to provide unified access to all user artifacts normally spread across several repositories and devices. Not till then individuals may foster and evolve persistent multi-hierarchical artifact structures (PAS) fitting their cognitive needs. PAS subsets can be arranged and meaningfully related to virtual habitats or even mapped to physical contexts and environments they are frequenting to solve their tasks.
