What are you creating tonight?

from AI For the Blind Club

What Are You Going to Create Tonight? or this weekend? Back in my day—and I’m 50, so that could be last week—I was all up in this game. Not in that way, but fully immersed. It’s called Swamp. A first-person shooter (FPS), but not just any FPS. This one’s for blind players. It’s played on a PC, with headphones, using sound to navigate. That’s the simple version. The real version? It’s loads of fun. If you have a PC, you should check it out. No iPhone version yet—but hey, some blind guy wrote this in his basement in Florida. If you’ve got skills (or AI), imagine what you could do. I love sound-based games like this because they remind me of real-world mobility. And that got me thinking… What if Swamp could load OpenStreetMap data and turn your hometown into a soundscape adventure? Imagine training for your route to the store by navigating through an FPS—dodging obstacles, shooting targets, or even just collecting flowers along the way. Multiplayer mode. Audio chat. Maybe even the metaverse. That’s dreaming, right there. But dreams spark reality. I bet you have ideas like this—maybe even better ideas. So here’s the challenge: take that spark and make something. Maybe not this exact thing, but your thing. The night is young. It’s Friday. What are you going to create tonight? As for me? I think I’ve got a date with an AI music model. Drop your wildest idea in the comments. Oh, and I’ll drop the link to Swamp too, in case you want to check it out. See you around.
