ABSTRACT
Platt and Warren stress the role of a lighted visual environment, while Jones and Kabanoff stress the importance of eye movements, claiming they can facilitate auditory localisation even in the dark. Deciding between these accounts is difficult. This is because no single experiment directly compares auditory localisation accuracy with and without eye movements in a lighted and a dark environment. Your workshop may go some way towards correcting this omission, and it will certainly provide some further data regarding this puzzling visual effect on hearing.
