	Blindfold chess - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Blindfold Chess is a way to play chess, whereby play is conducted without the players having sight of the positions of the pieces, or any physical contact with them.
		Blindfold chess was first played quite early on in the history of chess, with perhaps the first game being played by Sa'id bin Jubair (665–714) in the Middle East.
		While blindfold chess has been recommended in moderation by many sources as a method of increasing one's playing strength, simultaneous blindfold exhibitions were officially banned in 1930 in the USSR as they were deemed to be a health hazard.

		Blindfold is a strong novel from the prolific Anderson (see what else he has done), who is most widely known for his best-selling Star Wars books.
		The biggest weakness of Blindfold is Anderson's tendency to create pigeon-holed characters whose actions never seem quite justified by their motivations.
		Despite these flaws, Blindfold is a compelling read with an intricate plot and a wonderfully rendered new world.

	Blindfold 8x8x8 3D Chess
		Similarly, when I'm blindfold in a complex midgame of Chess, I don't picture the whole huge 8x8 chessboard with the pieces on it, and one ear broken off this Knight and a coffee stain on g3.
		Sometimes when the blindfold player stops to think, he might be reviewing the score of the game to try and remember if White's h-Pawn is still on h2, or if it moved to h3 ten moves ago.
		It seems as though the same mental programs are used for remembering the moves, remembering the position, remembering the current locations of the pieces, and remembering the current relationships of pieces to each other; and so when part of it has trouble, so does the rest of it.

	Splendid Magazine reviews Blindfold: Self-Titled
		With every element just slightly out of place, from Hilmarrson's echoing vocals shimmering in the higher registers to drums that can't decide quite how low they want to be, to droning guitars carving out space for more delicate instrumental flourishes, "Sleepless Nights" leaves you with the impression of a song barely made.
		The briefest and most inexplicable of sexual encounters -- the vaguely pornographic, the beautifully unnecessary and unexpected -- are infused with this same exact melancholy.
		If you can't imagine why Blindfold evoke in some listeners such sordid ideas, you'll at least be able to understand the sense of closeness.

	Kevin J Anderson: Blindfold - an infinity plus review
		Anderson may have laboured long and hard in the satanic mills of the media empires, pumping up the profits on particular product lines, but it doesn't necessarily mean he's really learned how to write a convincing work of science fiction.
		Maybe Blindfold is just the kind of book that helps a young reader graduate from media tie-ins to 'proper' SF, led along by a familiar name.
		Trouble is, that reader might be left with the idea that SF is all as flawed and obvious as this book is, which does no one in the field any favours.
