     Our Visual Ear?  With vision there are, broadly speaking, two different kinds of blindness.  First, there is blindness due to damage or disruption of our bodily, sensitive apparatus.  Second, blindness is due to a person’s inability to integrate sensory stimulation with patterns of movement, sound, and thought... this is a kind of experiential blindness. 

     To see is not just to have visual sensations, it is to have visual sensations that are integrated, in the right sort of way, with bodily skills and critical awareness.  Much of human blindness, as with deafness, results from disjunctions of integration.

     Integrating perception with our entire body is crucial for cognition, thought, action... but also within commodity creation.  For once our commodities become truly sensorily integrated, cognitive control is achieved... and control is the ultimate logic embedded in every media technology.  Hence, once our technologies master human sensorial integration, which is the holy grail of all technological innovation, we shall never be left to our own senses again.
