Some quick thoughts..

There's some strong ideas in here. The concept of presentation views is good
and the collaboration works well. Where it is weak is in the actual
interface. There is simply too much competing on the screen to make this a
strong interface from user experience point of view. Demos often do take the
'show it on screen' approach as they can showcase more features as opposed
to an interface that uses time more.

In general it takes many ideas that exist (the 3D space to explore files has
been done many times) and puts them together in a very condensed way. Users
may get very confused using the interface shown, not to mention 'Gorilla
arm' from using that 3D mouse.

So some good background thinking but the execution is fairly weak in terms
of strong clear user interface. Respect to them for putting this together
but some better interface design could have presented the ideas better.
