train journey to uppsala with jeanette

new positive noise:

I like all the sounds of the city as long as they are not disturbed by cars and traffic sound. That's why the best moment in the city is the Sunday morning. I don't understand why our contemporary society accepts the killing dominance of the traffic, in everything, sound, view, smelling, accesibility,... . I love the sound of a bird in the city because it is exceptional, there are bird but it is if they don't sing, or the sound of happy children who are playing, something difficult to find nowadays. I suppose everything that has a human sound. Silence, clinking of cups of coffee, people speaking and laughing.

I suppose that is why many people like the Historical Centres in a city, or the parks, or the riversides. Places where the dominance of the traffic noise is not that much.

i met nina today. was a really good meeting. gave me some new points of views but also confirmation in my ideas:

noise:
outside, in the city, from long distance, movement, traffic, people, happenings, public spaces, way to destination, avoid / appreciate noise, living in the city, noise synphony

pod:
inside-outside, soft-hard, sitt/lay/stand, rubber-felt, shape after function and ergonomy inside, light: deep-midrange-high, choose noise after need in the moment, choose by testing what is needed


--
