Kent Gürültüsüne İşitsel Peyzaj Yaklaşımı ile Bir Bakış: Kentin Sesini Dinle, Kendi Sesini Sestele “Eskişehir”

Abstract

Sesleri duymanın öneminin dünyanın her yerinde anlaşılması ümidiyle 2020 yılı, Uluslararası Ses Yılı olarak ilan edilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda, Eskişehir’de düzenlenen ”Kentin Sesini Dinle, Kendi Sesini Bestele’’çalıştayının sonuçları, gürültü ile mücadelede işitsel peyzaj yaklaşımı üzerinden ses türü tercih eğilimlerinin örnek bir kentsel ses ortamda sorgulanması ve bu sorgulama üzerinden ses türlerinin işitsel kimlik ile ilişkisinin araştırılması amacıyla tartışılmıştır. 38 kişilik katılımcı grubuyla, çalışma alanı olarak seçilen Eskişehir kentinin yoğun ve önemli ticaret ve turizm bölgesinde belirlenen üç farklı rotada ses yürüyüşü yöntemiyle yapılan alan çalışmasında elde edilen veriler doğrultusunda katılımcıların, kentin sesleriyle ilgili deneyimleri ve değerlendirmeleri paylaşılarak tartışılmıştır. Katılımcıların kentsel alanlarda doğal sesler ile birlikte insan ve günlük yaşam sesleri ile teknolojik seslerin de var olmasını bekledikleri görülmüştür. Buna göre ses kaynağı türü itibariyle mevzuatta gürültü olarak kabul edilen ya da düzeyi kabul edilebilir sınırların üzerine çıkan sesler; kentsel ses ortamın kimliğine ait (yere ait) olduğunda istenilen/tercih edilen sesler olarak değerlendirilebilmektedir.

A View to Urban Noise with Soundscape Approach: Listen to the Sound of the City, Compose Your Own Sound “Eskisehir”

Abstract

The year 2020 has been declared as the International Year of Sound with hoping that the importance of hearing sounds will be understood all over the world in 2020. On this matter, the results of the "Listen to the Sound of the City, Compose Your Own Sound" workshop organized in Eskişehir were discussed in order to the preference tendencies of sound type in an urban sound environment sample through the soundscape approach in the fight against noise and investigating the relationship of sound types with acoustic identity through this questioning. In this article, the experiences and evaluations of the participants about the sounds of the city were shared and discussed in line with the data obtained in the field study with a participant group of 38 people by the sound walk method in three different routes determined in the urban area which is the busy and important trade and tourism region of Eskisehir city. It has been observed that the participants expected the presence of natural sounds, human and daily life sounds, and technological sounds in urban areas. According to this sounds that are accepted as noise in the legislation or whose level exceeds the acceptable limits due to the type of sound source; can be evaluated as desired/preferred sounds when the sounds belong to the urban identity.
