I won't pretend to understand all of this. My degree is computer science, not higher mathematics or engineering. Still, I'm intrigued, and would love to hear a practical example. To keep things on topic, would this library be usable from a Swift or Objective-C app for iOS or OS X? If so, can you give a real-world example of how? I understand representing things as sounds, but how would it handle in a real app? That is, what about loading/managing sound buffers (you can only have 16 at a time in OpenAL), handling stereo sound samples, generating sounds on the fly instead of relying on recorded audio, applying real-time filters or effects, managing occlusions and distance roll-offs, that kind of thing? Is there a mapping engine, where the programmer can lay out the "world" in some kind of XML or JSON format?
