Would you like to be able to see air? I wouldn't, because I'd never be able to see anything else if I did.

Would be cool. I'd much rather be able to slamdunk a basketball however,

I think it would be trippy to be able to see air.

You should go to kind of industrial district - there you can see the air

Or, if you don't like polluted air, you can see air vibrating over hot road

I'd rather be able to see a broader portion of the EM spectrum.

Lets all just do what Sylkat says when we want to see air/air currents, its safer than magic mushrooms anyway :)

Well, if I was able to see air I wouldn't be able to see what's behind air. Think about fog, or smoke. Even if it was almost transparent, if it was opaque enough for me to be able to see it then it would interfere with long-range sight.

Being able to sense air currents without compromising my sight would be great though.

Not air,no.

I would *love* to see music.
I get all tingly at the thought of it.
So trippy, but so amazing.

This.
And if you could see ALL air you'd effectively be completely blind.

Well I think I can. I can always see this kind of grainy texture, I ignore it most of the time because you have to but when I think about it I become very aware of it. It's not dust motes in the sunlight, it's this kind of molecule-y type of graininess in the atmosphere. I don't have vision problems and have regular eye tests. It's just an awareness of the texture of the air. Probably sounds weird to most people.

I'd hate to see air going into people's noses and mouths and coming out. Don't want to be reminded that we share it.
