Sub-saharan African music, visibly stressed E. coli, and the sounds of Mars at,,National Acoustics meeting

How will a vibrating machine sound on Mars? What subtle characteristics of African music distinguish it from other forms? What is the explanation for the "sound of growing corn" that farmers always hear?

These and other questions will be addressed at the 138th Meeting of the Acoustical Society of America (ASA), which will be held at the Hyatt Regency Columbus Hotel from November 1-5, 1999 in Columbus, Ohio. The ASA is the largest scientific organization in the United States devoted to acoustics, with nearly 7000 members. This is the second major ASA meeting of the year--the last one was held in Berlin last March as a joint meeting with two European acoustics societies.

Daniel Costley, University of Mississippi (acoustical technique for inspecting sealed drums at waste sites); others will be announced shortly.
