Representações sonoras na Cidade de Goiás: uma investigação narrativa da dimensão sonora na antiga capital do estado

Abstract

This is a project that aims to study and capture the soundscape of the City of Goiás in the year 2021, it consists of two stages, the first an analysis of the sounds captured in three public places in the City of Goiás, namely: The Largo da Carioca, Praça do Coreto and the bus station in Goiás, and the second stage consists of developing a sound narrative created from the sounds captured during the first stage. The concept "sound landscape" was created by Canadian musician, composer and teacher R. Murray Schafer, and concerns the sound environment in which we are present, all sets of sounds that surround us, whether pleasant or unpleasant, strong or weak, simple or complex, treble, medium or bass, natural or artificial, from the most present sounds in our life to the most insignificant noise, all the sounds which constitute an atmosphere, which can be real or an abstract construction. The chosen locations represent points of intense movement and are frequented for different purposes,these public spaces will be visited for recording at three times of the day: in the morning, afternoon and evening, in order to cover a greater range of sound and understand the functioning of the sound for a day. And the development of the sound narrative aims to compile these sounds in order to make the recorded soundscapes more disseminated.
