This is indeed sad news. I was profoundly influenced by Al’s ASA book. I still remember vividly the first time I heard about his book from a colleague at Ohio State in the early 90s. Besides his impact on audition,
perception and cognition, his book directly inspired the development of computational auditory scene analysis, with lasting impact on computation. A true intellectual giant! DeLiang From: AUDITORY - Research in Auditory Perception <AUDITORY@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

career as a scientist. His deep thinking, limitless generosity, creative mind, and unrelenting search for understanding how we hear and listen have had far reaching influence not only on the field of auditory perception and cognition, but in the fields of
cognitive science, cognitive neuroscience, computational modeling of hearing, music psychology, and even the philosophy of sound more generally. He will be sorely missed, but his thought-provoking legacy will endure. Stephen McAdams |
