Acoustic Context
Nick will describe how we perceive sound and noise and the physical principles that govern how the built environment affects our sonic experiences. The talk will be supplemented with examples and demonstrations. Recent advances in digital techniques in acoustic design will also be discussed and how these are being used to involve users in the decision-making process in building design and environmental noise mitigation.
Attendees will learn:
How sound is described and measured
Why the aural environment is so important?
The fundamental acoustic properties of materials
How sound behaves in rooms
