  332. The power of music, sound and noise to denote place and demarcate space is used here to develop&#13;
  333. the idea of a sonic ecology. The paper attempts to map the relative order of this unseen city and to&#13;
  334. theorise its spatial and temporal patterning. The sonic ecology, a relatively persistent and&#13;
  335. chronologically ordered quality to sound in urban space, is used as a means of examining the&#13;
  336. distribution of sound and to weigh the broader social impact of these qualities. The ambient&#13;
  337. soundscape of the street is made up of a shifting aural terrain, a resonant metropolitan fabric,&#13;
  338. which may exclude or subtly guide us in our experience of the city, thus highlighting an invisible&#13;
  339. yet highly affecting and socially relevant area of urban enquiry.</p></div><table style="margin-bottom: 1em" cellpadding="3" class="not_ep_block" border="0"><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Item Type:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Article</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Keywords:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">Sound, noise, Cities, Urban ecology</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Subjects:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/370104.html">370000 Studies in Human Society &gt; 370100 Sociology &gt; 370104 Urban Sociology and Community Studies</a><br /><a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/view/subjects/370401.html">370000 Studies in Human Society &gt; 370400 Human Geography &gt; 370401 Urban and Regional Studies</a></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ID Code:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">1987</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited By:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><span class="ep_name_citation"><span class="person_name">Dr Rowland G Atkinson</span></span></td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Deposited On:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">27 Sep 2007</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">Last Modified:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row">09 Jan 2008 02:30</td></tr><tr><th valign="top" class="ep_row">ePrint Statistics:</th><td valign="top" class="ep_row"><a target="ePrintStats" href="/es/index.php?action=show_detail_eprint;id=1987;">View statistics for this ePrint</a></td></tr></table><p align="right">Repository Staff Only: <a href="http://eprints.utas.edu.au/cgi/users/home?screen=EPrint::View&amp;eprintid=1987">item control page</a></p>
