WORKSHOP “BEAUTIFUL SOUNDS: POSITIVE SOUNDS FOR HAPPY PLACES”

5 Mar , 2020 - Event

After the success of the initiative “NOISE AND THE CITY – L’ANIMA SONORA DELLE CITTÁ” and “A QUIET PLACE – UN POSTO TRANQUILLO”, acoustics experts, doctors, designers and philosophers of sound are again meeting in Palazzo Vecchio in Florence to talk about how an environment can be considered of quality thanks to the presence of “BEAUTIFUL SOUNDS – POSITIVE SOUNDS FOR HAPPY PLACES”. Since 1998, the City of Florence has organized Workshops on Acoustics, in collaboration with the Italian Acoustics Association and the Association of Engineers of the Province of Florence.

Sound is an essential part of communication between humans, in the form of speech and listening, warning, music and creative sounds. Undesirable and disturbing sounds, perceived as noise, must be controlled to ensure quality living and working environments.

The initiative includes a workshop and some musical performances.

Location: Palazzo Vecchio, Firenze, Italy
