Different types of sounds have been the basis of many accounts of the war experience and ambiance inhuman history. At present in Ukraine, artists and sound engineers, like many other civilians, have beencollecting a lot of sound material in the war that Russia has been waging since February 22 in Ukraine.The presentation will feature work by sound ...
Urban noise maps and noise visualizations traditionally provide macroscopic representations of noise levels across cities. However, those representations fail at accurately gauging the sound perception associated with these sound environments, as perception highly depends on the sound sources involved. This paper aims at analyzing the need for the ...
As part of the French pavilion at the XVIII Venice Architecture Biennale 2023, muoto architects with Georgi Stanishev designed the Ball Theater, associating the idea of sound creation with the architectural project from the outset. Radio Utopia occupied the Ball Theater for five days in August as part of the Pavilion's vision of architecture as a r...
The Laboratoire d'Expériences du Bureau (LEB) is designed as an experimental, educational and experiential space for workspace designers. Its purpose is to provide a better understanding of the implications of design choices on the likely sound experience of people at work. Equipped with a set of mobile acoustic devices, an sound ambience generator...
The exploration of the soundscape relies strongly on the characterization of the sound sources in the sound environment. Novel sound source classifiers, called pre-trained audio neural networks (PANNs), are capable of predicting the presence of more than 500 diverse sound sources. Nevertheless, PANNs models use fine Mel spectro-temporal representat...
Dans les théories et pratiques architecturales et urbaines, dans les réglementations et les labels de la construction, le son est abordé principalement comme une source de bruit, de nuisance contre lequel il faut isoler le logement. Malgré cela, les constats répétés de manque de qualité sonore des lieux de vie révèlent l’insuffisance de cette appro...
1. Passive acoustic monitoring has become increasingly popular as a practical and cost-effective way of obtaining highly reliable acoustic data in ecological research projects. Increased ease of collecting these data means that, currently, the main bottleneck in ecoacoustic monitoring projects is often the time required for the manual analysis of p...
Protected areas are typically managed as a network of sites exposed to varying anthropogenic conditions. Managing these networks benefits from monitoring of conditions across sites to help prioritize coordinated efforts. Monitoring marine vessel activity and related underwater radiated noise impacts across a network of protected areas, like the U.S...

Researchers increasingly look at augmenting soundscapes to reduce Behavioural and Psychological Syndrome of Dementia (BPSD). However, methods to select suitable sounds still need improvement. This study proposes a sound selection methodology to augment the soundscape in nursing homes to lower BPSD, using sound characteristics and recognition method...
