Abstract(s)
A exposição prolongada ao ruído afeta a saúde e o bem-estar de milhares de pessoas em todo
o mundo. Os tráfegos rodoviário, aéreo e industrial são as principais fontes de ruído nas grandes
cidades das sociedades modernas. Desde os anos 70 do século XX, a Paisagem Sonora tem-se
dedicado ao estudo de abordagens qualitativas multidisciplinares, tratando a questão do ruído
(e do som), inserindo-o no respetivo contexto e nas diversas dimensões humanas que o
envolvem.
Na presente investigação descrevem-se as principais características do som, a sua perceção e
memória, o conceito de paisagem sonora e as suas diferentes tipologias e classificações. Foi
também realizada uma seleção de casos de estudo como paisagens sonoras de exceção em
Portugal: A crise sísmica dos Açores em 1647, o terramoto em Lisboa em 1755 e as aluviões
na Madeira (fenómeno que se tem verificado desde 1803 até ao presente).
Dada a importância das alterações à Paisagem Sonora provocadas pela pandemia mundial da
COVID-19, pretende-se aqui compreender que memória e perceção as pessoas têm sobre o som
em tempos de exceção. Deste modo, desenvolveu-se um método para captar, gravar, medir e
classificar os sons que ocorreram num período de quarentena (todo o Estado de Emergência e
nos primeiros quinze dias do Estado de Calamidade) e realizaram-se inquéritos aos residentes
no local das captações/ medições. A análise dos dados recolhidos permitiu uma melhor
compreensão do modo como é percecionada a Paisagem Sonora em tempos de exceção e que
alterações trouxe a pandemia da COVID-19 à Paisagem Sonora portuguesa.
ABSTRACT: Prolonged exposure to noise affects the health and well-being of people around the world. Road, air and industrial traffic are the main sources of noise in large cities in modern societies. Since the 1970s, soundscape has been dedicated to the study of qualitative multidisciplinary approaches, addressing the issue of noise (and sound) by including this in the respective context and in the various human dimensions from which it evolves. We will address the main characteristics of sound, its perception and memory, the concept of soundscape and its different typologies and classifications. We have selected several case studies as exceptional soundscapes in Portugal. The seismic crisis in the Azores in 1647, the earthquake 1755 Lisbon earthquake as well as the floods in Madeira (a phenomenon that has occurred since 1803 through present times). Given the importance of the changes made to the soundscape due to the COVID-19 global pandemic, we intend to understand what memory and perception people have in relation to sound during these unique times. We created a method to capture, record, measure and classify sound during the quarantine period (the entirety of the State of Emergency as well as the first fifteen days of the State of Calamity). We conducted surveys of non-local residents of the fundraising / requirements. The analysis of the collected data brought a better understanding of how the Soundscape is perceived in unique times, and the changes caused by the pandemic of COVID-19 to the Portuguese Soundscape.
