Abstract

In recent talks, I mentioned how my artist friends often complain that their clients see with their ears. It recently dawned on me that nobody understood what I said, or—worse—got the wrong idea. The audience thinks of bionic devices (Proulx, Stoerig, Ludowig, & Knoll, 2008) or bat echo location (Moss & Sinha, 2003)—not my intention at all. So what might this ‘‘seeing with the ears’’ be?
