Soundscape design through evolutionary engines

2008

Abstract Two implementations of an Evolutionary Sound Synthesis method using the Interaural Time Difference (ITD) and psychoacoustic descriptors are presented here as a way to develop criteria for fitness evaluation. We also explore a relationship between adaptive sound evolution and three soundscape characteristics: keysounds, key-signals and sound-marks. Sonic Localization Field is defined using a sound attenuation factor and ITD azimuth angle, respectively (Ii, Li). These pairs are used to build Spatial Sound Genotypes (SSG) and they are extracted from a waveform population set. An explanation on how our model was initially written in MATLAB is followed by a recent Pure Data (Pd) impleme…

Rooftop Oasis. Re-commoning urban natures. Regenerating So-Ho and its energies

2022

In the age of increasing global warming, in an era in which sustainable design practicies are entering the mainstream of the profession, we must develop novel ways of design thinking that must address a variety of dominans. The contribution describes present and future paradigms of city design.

Musica a Palermo al tempo dei Chiaromonte: il Liber continens capitula per totum annum (ms. 8) e il Cantus diversi ad usum Panormitanae Ecclesiae (ms…

2020

Dopo aver delineato un quadro generale della musica a Palermo nel Trecento, il contributo si incentra su due codici conservati presso l'Archivio Storico Diocesano di Palermo: il "Liber continens capitula per totum annum" e il "Cantus diversi ad usum Panormitanae Ecclesiae". Dei due codici si esplicitano alcune caratteristiche degne di interesse, in particolare la presenza nel primo dell’antifona "Salve regina" tropata, e nel secondo della sequenza "Victimae paschali laudes" con varianti testuali che permettono di cogliere alcune specificità della tradizione liturgico-musicale siciliana.

When Soundscape Studies Encounter Buddhism : Methodology Development of Soundscape Studies conducted at Chinese Buddhist Temples

2012

The ethnographic ideals of ‘reflectiveness’ and ‘openness’ inspire the researcher to think deeply about how to develop ethnographic soundscape methodology during the research process. This Paper focuses on developing adaptive research methods for soundscape studies on Chinese Buddhist temples. Chinese Buddhist temples are monasteries and dwelling places of monks. They are also the miniature of “pure land”. Temples have been considered as the landmarks of quiet and peace in China for thousands of years. What and how are the soundscapes of Buddhist temples? Have any changes happened in the soundscapes? How does the Buddhist way of thinking about hearing impact the Buddhists’ way of hearing? W…

Indexing the Local, State and Global in the Contemporary Linguistic Landscape of a Hungarian town in Slovakia

2015

On the basis of photography and fieldwork, the linguistic landscape (LL) of the central square of Dunajská Streda/ Dunaszerdahely is analyzed. I focus on commercial names, which dominate the LL of the main square. The research site, a town in Slovakia of which population 80 % is Hungarian speaking, is significant, since historical minorities form the majority in very few European towns. The characteristics, functions and meanings of a linguistic landscape are best charted through a combination of methods. A distributional account provides us a basic account of what languages there are in the investigated scene. We may compare this with surveys, censuses and other similar cities, as in our c…

Comparative transcriptomics of albino and warningly‐coloured caterpillars

2021

Abstract Coloration is perhaps one of the most prominent adaptations for survival and reproduction of many taxa. Coloration is of particular importance for aposematic species, which rely on their coloring and patterning acting as a warning signal to deter predators. Most research has focused on the evolution of warning coloration by natural selection. However, little information is available for color mutants of aposematic species, particularly at the genomic level. Here, I compare the transcriptomes of albino mutant caterpillars of the aposematic wood tiger moth (Arctia plantaginis) to those of their full sibs having their distinctive orange‐black warning coloration. The results showed >29…
