First Announcement Proposed Special Session, the 163rd Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America, Hong Kong Dear Colleagues, The 163rd Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America will be held in Hong Kong, between 14-18 May 2012. A special session, to be co-sponsored by the Technical Committees on Architectural Acoustics and Psychological and Physiological Acoustics, has been proposed and is tentatively titled: Auditory Psychophysics in Rooms The session concept is to join Psychological and Physiological researchers with Architectural Acoustic researchers and practitioners to discuss how the work of each influences, and is applied by, the other. Research and application of common topics like masking, speech transmission and intelligibility, spatial hearing, and scene analysis will be presented.  This session is an opportunity to come together and discuss different points of view. The session will be structured around a list of topics common to our fields including but not limited to: source width, envelopment, distance perception, localization, loudness, noise, reverberance, scene analysis, speech intelligibility, and room synthesis. The proposed format is for pairs of researchers, from different research backgrounds, to present talks about current work on each topic. An alternative format to the standard ASA session is under consideration that may include two 10 minute talks followed by 10-20 minutes of panel discussion on the topic.  Please email Philip Robinson: philrob22@xxxxxxxx with a potential topic or paper title if you are interested in participating in this session.
