Indeed! Have you ever tried something like the vOICe http://www.seeingwithsound.com/ http://www.seeingwithsound.com/ ?
- bramd 12y ago> Have you ever tried something like the vOICe http://www.seeingwithsound.com/ http://www.seeingwithsound.com/ ? Yes, I have played with it. However, I'm not convinced yet if I should invest a lot of time learning it. Another useful and interesting skill is echolocation[0]. I have used that since Iwas a child to survey my environment. 0: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_echolocation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_echolocation
- leoc 12y agoI seem to recall research claming that vOICe users already had very impressive results after 50-100 hours of use/training, so I would guess that it's worth the time. Human echolocation is absolutely balling, what else can I say?
