I'd be really interested to know if there are cultures that don't
perceive sound as directional - I'd say it is for the same reason we
perceive time as directional though.  We understand events to happen
one after the other, linearly, and because of that we probably model
our writing and music against them.  It would be really interesting to
know though if there is a culture out there that has a kind of
rhizomatic perception of time - events branching off from each other
in a mess of lines, maybe even feeding back onto itself...  I can't
imagine there are such cultures, but I bet their languages would look
cool!  (Maybe to us something like paul's message...)
