abstract socio environmental echolocation
Collective (un)consciousness may be percieved by active curiosity; throwing things into the void, watching what comes back and what does not. I like Walt Whitman's words though it may not refer to echolocation but follows a similar thread


A Noiseless Patient Spider
By Walt Whitman (1891)
I mark'd where on a little promontory it stood isolated,
Mark'd how to explore the vacant, vast surrounding,
It launched forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself.
Ever unreeling them, ever tirelessly speeding them.

And you O my soul where you stand,
Surrounded, detatched, in measureless oceans of space,
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing, seeking the spheres to connect them.
Till the bridge you will need be form'd, till the ductile anchor hold,
Till the gossamer thread you fling catch somewhere, O my soul
