A three dimensional graphical user interface module operating within a computing system in a manner to display information retrieved from a database within or operatively connected to the computing system that stores a plurality of data files. The graphical user interface is configured as a plurality of viewable surfaces, wherein at least one of the plurality of viewable surfaces is configured as a sphere, displayed three-dimensionally and includes a plurality of interface items displayed thereon. In using the three dimensional graphical user interface, the user may access a second viewable surface configured as a three-dimensional sphere through an entrance point within a first viewable surface configured as a three-dimensional sphere. The three dimensional graphical user interface allows the user to access and retrieve the data stored in the database upon selecting one of the plurality of interface items illustrated on the surface of one of the plurality of viewable surfaces.
