Looks very cool!

I'm interested in running video on the solid platform [1]

It also uses linked data and I have added basic support for byte ranges so
that you can seek within a video file

Do you see any synergies or possibilities to interop between the two
systems?

One thing I'd like to develop is video playlists, and a viewer and ontology
for that, for example.
