The purpose of the workshop is to investigate, on an empirical basis, the empirical aspects of the acoustic quality of spaces and to assess their auditory perception, quantifying the disturbance caused by sounds defined as undesirable. This integrated approach makes it possible to assess sound environments through objective and subjective parameters, with a focus on community acoustic well-being and overall improvement of soundscape quality.
teacher profile teaching materials
The course will focus on methods for analyzing and estimating the perception of sound in both open and enclosed spaces, through the evaluation and quantification of psychoacoustic parameters. Practical activities will include the acoustic characterization of an environment and the use of binaural microphones to fully understand the auditory sensations perceived by listeners in a specific sound setting.
Binaural recordings provide an acoustic immersion that faithfully reproduces spatial sound perception, enabling a detailed evaluation of the soundscape. This approach not only enhances the quality of the analysis but is also essential for assessing the effectiveness of procedures aimed at improving the sound environment.
Regulatory frameworks and administrative constraints, particularly those related to performing arts, will be presented. Furthermore, the laboratory seeks to explore the procedures for the acoustic characterization of open spaces with a focus on environmental sustainability, as well as the reduction and control of noise pollution.
