SOUNDSCAPE OF THE OLD TOWN IN BYDGOSZCZ – ANALYSIS, COMPOSITION AND ACOUSTIC MANAGEMENT GUIDELINES

Abstract

Sound plays an important role in shaping the landscape, creating the so-called soundscape, i.e. a mosaic of sounds in a given place and time. It affects the well-being, emotions and perception of space by its users. Sound is one of many stimuli found in the city, which can enrich the experience of specific places and strengthen the bond with them. The aim of the study was to learn about the sounds occurring in the Old Town area of Bydgoszcz and to characterize them. The study used field and camera spatial analyses. Examples of sounds from the biophonic, geophonic and anthropophonic categories were presented. They presented variable duration of occurrence and location. The soundscape also showed the presence of noise. Mill Island and the adjacent areas showed great potential for the occurrence of sounds that could be perceived as pleasant.
