Today, most of the information that we can obtain it is being processed by the mass media such as a newspaper and a magazine. Because this kind of information is being processed so that we may be easy to receive, It is possible for us that this kind of information is understood easily. However, processed information is the information transformed by the intention of the processing person. Therefore, we must grasp the information that can be hard to be seen in the eyes to catch the true nature of the information.
We have one more concept for the world of "A-X-E-S." The concept is "presentation of the importance of the information which can't be seen with the eyes." The whole information of the world of "A-X-E-S" can't be grasped with the sense of sight. For example, the sound source doesn't indicate in the form of "component." When ordinal two-dimensional display is used as the indication device, we can't get the information of the spatial structure in virtual three-dimensional space. The spatial information of each object is annulled. If we want to get this kind of spatial information with the sense of sight, we must use the some devices for virtual reality such as CAVE. In addition to this kind of annulment of spatial information, there is another problem which user's sight is very limited in virtual three-dimensional world. As a result, it is very difficult for the user to grasp the existence of other users in virtual three-dimensional world with the sense of sight.
A user can grasp the whole information of the world of "A-X-E-S" by feeling the statements of the soundscape through the sense of hearing.
