Sonic Ecology and the Role of Sound Art in Creating a Healthy Urban Environment
摘要
This chapter on “Sonic Ecology and the Role of Sound Art in Creating a Healthy Urban Environment” focuses on the influence sound has on collective health and social well-being in general. This implies that sound will be connected to social, economic, cultural, ecological, political, ethical, and aesthetic issues. Thus, the emphasis is on the positive role sound can play. The idea being developed here is that an important opportunity for improvement can be found in sound’s supportive role in establishing more attentive interactions between human (and non-human) beings and their (sonic) environment.
