software and space


I've been getting up to date on Agile development and what has struck me has been the interesting link between the team and space. Trying to do this remotely is partly about trying to overcome space - something we inhabit in a very tacit way. Makes me want to map out the conversations between people and how they sit. 

Could this be reproduced by some kind of 3D sound system? If not why not?
