It's like knowing where everything in front of you is without having to touch or hear it. Sight works with your other senses too. For example, if a pillow is laying on the floor in an unfamiliar room I'll know what shape it, how far away it is, and that if I pick it up it'll feel soft. If the pillow was really gross looking I'd be able to tell without smelling it first.

I really like these sculptures, but would hate them in person, because not soft.
