Try a tiling window manager like DWM or Awesome and open up lots of black terminals (be sure to customize the .Xdefaults to get cool colours). Tiling window managers can turn anyone in to a pro Hollywood movie hacker.

the type of display is a natural user interface. at least, the interaction is. the actual 3D projection stuff isn't particularly possible right now but the other stuff is.
