Back in the early 2000s, there was a desktop interface that explored this concept. Your desktop was displayed as an actual 3D desk, and you could stack files on top of each other, smack them into each other, etc, all with physical properties applied. The name, unfortunately, escapes me, though.
That might be BumpTop 3D. I remember having lots of fun with it in the XP days. Apparently it was acquired by Google at some point, and later open sourced.

That’s the one, thanks! It was driving me insane trying to remember the name.
