What Hacker News says?
This piqued my interest so I browsed your site a little bit and would like to highlight a couple of links to other people ITT. http://www.lasselaursen.com/interactive-interview an interactive interview http://www.lasselaursen.com/project/planmixplay talks a bit more about PlanMixPlay and also mentions a source of inspiration that is worth checking out as well, namely https://vimeo.com/25861552

HN discussionHaving recently re-vamped my own online-projects portfolio (obligatory plug - https://www.lasselaursen.com/#projects-on-blog ), I think some images in the bubbles would not go amiss.
