I really wonder why no one's heard of AudioQuake with MindGrid. The project has somewhat stalled out over the past two years, but the "Jedi Quake," version, written by Cara Quinn and others, is the best 3D audio simulation I've seen. I can't speak for the parallel- processing audio capacity of the brain, but immediately this game and its maps made me start thinking about "mobility orientation," applications. Having only ever encountered a mobility orienting instructor for the first time in memory last year, I don't know much about how most blind people do it, but I'm sure my skills aren't that different from the norm, and I saw implications for map-making and environment-learning, which is where I wanted to go with apps for the Iphone. I still have a Windows laptop running XP; I'll check out shades of doom.
