you mean, The Go Beyond Step! ..?
It feels intuitive to take a multimodal approach to understanding place in time, in audio. (visual scrubbers, transcripts, audio timeline etc)
What about effects such as panning/fading for audio orientation? One talks about a "phantom center" of audio, perhaps one can use a left-to-right panning (or RTL) to represent "phantom time-travel"?

The high-speed harmonics! The over-shoot! … anyone?Consider the following fact: with a 16x speed fast-forward (as implemented above), it takes a minute of your life to fast-forward through 16 minutes of audio.If the laser pointer extends our reach and allows us to maintain orientation while annihilating distance, what is the sonic metaphor for a rapid time-travel (i.e. random access)? And what sonic tools—if any—can maintain some degree of orientation?R.M.O.
