This paper describes ongoing work with auditory direct manipulation for blind computer users. Two studies have been performed on an auditory version of the game Towers of Hanoi, and the results have pointed out important aspects of auditory direct manipulation such as focus in the auditory space and articulatory directness. Future research directions include studies on these aspects, collaboration between sighted and blind subjects and an implementation of auditory drag & drop in a file system
