| General Information: |
| Warren Creel and Paul Boomsliter worked together closely in the field of auditory perception and |
| organization, studying pitch relations and durational effects in tonal perception, sensation, rhythm and |
| cadence in language which they studied through music and poetry with related psychoacoustic studies, |
| including animal experimentation. Starting in the early 1960s, Warren worked as a research associate in |
| the Department of Surgery, Albany Medical College, after an early career in teaching. His interest in the |
| work of the CAS started in the mid 1960s, both in the research and development as well as in the |
| functioning of the Society, which lasted until his death. He was chairman of the Committee on By-Laws, |
| for many years Treasurer, and later Vice-President. His own research in psychoacoustics |
| complimented much that we were doing on the development of the new instruments of the Violin Octet. |
| Warren was great fun to work with and always had some interesting new ideas, and arguments could |
| go on far into the night. This file contains mostly correspondence. For his published papers and research |
| work see the file of Paul Boomsliter. |
