Minneapolis Meeting Streamed Sessions

News and Announcements

 

Viewing Minneapolis Meeting Streamed Sessions

 

The Acoustical Society of America (ASA) once again facilitated remote participation in some technical sessions recently held at the ASA meeting in Minneapolis (7-11 May 2018). A number of papers in the special sessions listed below were broadcast in real-time over the internet using GoToWebinar.

Recordings of certain talks are now available for delayed viewing through 4 July 2018, if successfully captured and agreed upon by the authors.

ASA is offering this service specifically for members who were unable to attend the sessions in person, thereby broadening access to meeting content. During this piloting phase, there is no cost to ASA members.  Please note that photography, audio, and video recordings of content from ASA sessions are strictly prohibited, whether in person or over the internet.

Many thanks to all of you who have participated and given us your feedback on the initiative.  We have now broadcast content from six ASA meetings in a row, and are in the process of editing a number of the recorded talks and posting them to the ASA YouTube channel.  Please subscribe now to the ASA YouTube channel to be notified when new material is added.

We want to thank the members of the live stream subcommittee for their work in moving this initiative forward: Lily Wang (chair), Ken Bader, Anna Diedesch, Judy Dubno, Josh Gladden, Andrew Morrison, Himanshu Shekhar, and Anand Swaminathan.  Many thanks also to Anna Catton and Kieren Smith for coordinating the effort onsite at the last two meetings.

Streaming Broadcast – Spring 2018 Minneapolis

Streaming Broadcast – Spring 2018

Minneapolis

The Acoustical Society of America (ASA) is again facilitating remote participation by members in certain technical sessions to be held at the upcoming spring meeting in Minneapolis. A number of papers in the special sessions listed below will be broadcast in real-time over the internet using GoToWebinar.

ASA is offering this service specifically for members who are unable to attend the meeting in person, thereby broadening access to meeting content. If you are unable to attend these sessions in person, you can watch the live presentations and ask questions through a Q&A feature over the internet from any location. Simply register for each session of interest by clicking the associated internet link shown, and a web access link will be sent to you for that session by e-mail immediately after you register.  Some talks may also be available for delayed viewing in the two weeks following the meeting, if agreed upon by the authors.  Registering for the sessions through the links below will provide access to their available recordings.

Note that live feed will pause for presentations that will not be broadcast and for session breaks.
