Akustická ekologie a soundscape v kontextu multimédií / Acoustic Ecology and Soundscape in Context of Multimedia

This thesis is focused on perceptual and compositional aspects of soundscape art in the 40-year tradition of acoustic ecology. From the long history of acoustic ecology I selected important community, institutional worldwide and Czech projects. My main focus is to bring the keywords of acoustic ecology and soundscape into Czech theory.

I use two points of view for the study of soundscape:
1. soundwalk / listening walk - specific way of listening to the acoustic space in the form of a soundwalk or listening walk
2. analysis of sound composition - the analysis is focused on traditional composition approaches to the study of sound compositions

The first approach is active listening ? the psychology of listening that R. M. Schafer uses for interaction with our surroundings. The second approach fo-cuses on looking for traditional composing approaches in the analysis of sound compositions "Winter Diary" (R. M. Schafer) and "Un altro ferragosto" (A. Curran). The thesis is also narrowly focused on autobiographical reflection, which provides a link to both of the examined approaches. This is a pilgrimage to the city of Santiago de Compostela. The pilgrimage gave rise to the soundscape composition Ultreia: El diario del peregrino / The Pilgrim's Diary itself.

The objective of the analysis is to give an answer to the following question: In what way has the tradition of acoustic ecology and R. M. Schafer?s way of thinking, influenced approaches / thinking of composers in the field of sound composition?
