    An interesting experiment, very reminiscent of the early 90s' Magic Cap, Microsoft Bob, et al. But objects in physical space afford a discoverability that can't be replicated here, and the metaphor thus quickly and inevitably becomes a burden.

    I don&#x27;t get it, what is this supposed to be? Another drag and drop? I am failing to understand the uniqueness of this.<p>Also, if you put the cup on the tape and try to move the tape, the cup removes itself.

      Open the notebook and flip through it. Drink the coffee (drag the mug downwards). Put the floppy in the device. Put the VHS tape in the device.

      Drag the floppy to the console and you&#x27;ll get a download link for the tool.

    It was lovely until I double tapped and accidentally zoomed in with no apparent way to zoom back out again.<p>Otherwise, lovely.

    I like the easter egg where you can drink the coffee if you drag it to the bottom of the screen.

    Marek gave some helpful background for this project during a recent Future of Coding meetup (first demo in the stream).<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mrogalski.eu" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;mrogalski.eu</a><p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=_7z77QGARLE" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=_7z77QGARLE</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;futureofcoding.org" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;futureofcoding.org</a>
