Wow, thanks for stopping by! I absolutely love the site and have sent it to countless people. I love open world computer games (the game Everything springs to mind as a console-specific example) and your site put me in mind of those kind of expansive, dream-like worlds.
I agree, I think a virtual environment to randomly encounter music could be really engaging and fun - this Nonpareils video popped into my head as a nod to that: https://youtu.be/RhutMIjpY-s
It feels as though even something simple like the above (which reminds me of very old Windows player graphics) would work as a channel for discovery, although like you say, different folks will gravitate towards different displays of works/links/music. There have been some excellent search and data-based suggestions too.
If you’ve any more thoughts to share on any of this, would be great to read them!
