ArchitectureWeek Description
Every environment has an aural architecture. We can navigate a room in the dark, and "hear" the emptiness of a house without furniture. Our experience of music in a concert hall depends on where we sit. The acoustics of religious spaces acquire symbolic meaning. Integrating the disciplines of architecture, music, acoustics, evolution, anthropology, cognitive psychology, and audio engineering, this book presents a guide for anyone interested in gaining a better understanding of how space enhances our well-being.
