Author: Karen Van Lengen and Jim Welty'Soundscape Architecture' presents historical examples, design projects and art works related to the sonics of architectural spaces and landscapes. This work grew out of Lengen and Welty's interest in listening to places that sponsor distinct sonic characteristics with specific and memorable identities. They have addressed this challenging design territory by beginning with the act of listening itself. They record the spaces, create new compositions from the recordings, draw (by hand and digitally) the sounds of these compositions, animate these drawings, and then create digital paintings as a memory of this process. They also present sonic installations, projects, and other exemplary art works as creative demonstrations that support the act of listening to the atmospheres of our natural and built environments.ISBN 9781961856745.
