Project: Sound Mapping Bologna


T-Days Mappatura Acustica (3:36) This short non-narrative video documents a project in Bologna, Italy September 17-23, 2011 in which a section of the city's historical center was compared acoustically with and without traffic. The occassion, known as T-Days, was a unique chance for citizens to discover and appreciate for the first time the historic center of Bologna without the anxiety of everyday traffic life. During this period citizens could participate in a calm and easy walk or a bike ride through three specific locations: Independence Way, Via Ugo Bassi, and Via Rizzoli. The video compares, contrasts and maps the locations with and without the normal traffic sounds. Click2Read more or learn more about a sponsoring group: Sounday Times.

Pedobus: autobus fatto con i piedi di lunghezza non determinata. Consente di raggiungere scuole parchi e perfino gelaterie, visitare musei e monumenti. Non puzza, non costa niente, fa un rumore allegro, aiuta la città a liberarsi del traffico.
