You proposal of a 3D environment seems quite interesting !

We could imagine a sort of Second Life
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Life>
were visitors could navigate from places to places, each place containing 
medias about a subject.

For that we would need to have 3D object files in Commons, a much needed 
feature.

For a distant future, we could use an electronic nose 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_nose>
to smell odors in a location and put on Commons a file that could then be used 
with a odors generating machine to reproduce the smell of that location :-)

Regards.
