Whether big or small. We all have that one thing from Scifi we wished were real. I’d love to see a cool underground city with like a SkyDome or a space hotel for instance.

    The problem it that sound is limited in physical space, so you can move around a room, talking to one person and then another.

    Your proposal is like getting two groups of people to stand on opposite sides of a room and then communicate by shouting at each other.

      Think of it like two groups of people in separate rooms with a large open window between them. Not everyone is trying to talk one on one to the other group all the time. And sometimes just feeling like you’re in the same physical space can be nice.

      It’s not perfect, but in many circumstances it’s worlds better than having tiny portable windows that mostly facilitate one on one conversation.

        A one on one conversation sounds far preferrable to what you are describing. There would be far too much crosstalk.
