New Ears for A New Noise. Interrogating Smart City Noise Pollution Through Sound Art.

家庭和办公室的基础设施、建筑和陈设将与电子设备、汽车和家用电器进行无线通信。通过嵌入式发射器和接收器存储我们的活动数据，尤其是城市将依赖于无法预测的无线信号密度。虽然对智慧城市的批评存在于隐私和健康问题上，但这项研究担心，作为智慧城市数据的载体，5G需要更多的短程发射机，从而导致全球无线信号密度达到新的水平。这个基于实践的项目探讨了这些无线信号与噪音污染的关系。它将噪音污染的历史和当代研究与智能城市公共和私人环境中存在的听不见和看不见的无线信号的研究结合起来，调查对公众心理健康的影响。通过我自己的实践，这个研究将专注于可感知的无线信号，发展“扩展倾听”和“超越声音的倾听”的想法，将噪音作为一种参与这种无声和无形“污染”的新方法的方式。两个采访元素为这个项目的研究和实践提供了信息：焦点小组：“制作作为研究”，记录正在进行的回应艺术作品并讨论他们的主题。在同意后的背景下探索城市化和代表性的政治问题，结果将为艺术作品的最终迭代和生产档案提供信息（与作品一起展出）。我选择与收入较低的伦敦人合作，因为在当今社会，他们与艺术界疏远，既缺乏决定城市未来的机构，也无法接触到高度商品化的智能经济。-与智能计算科学家。我将整理有关预计无线信号强度和数量的数据，并根据焦点小组的关注点对他们的研究进行批评，例如可访问性（语言、成本）和代理（控制、所有权）。

infrastructures, the architecture and furnishings of homes and offices will converse wirelessly with fit-bits, cars and domestic appliances. Storing data about our movements via embedded transmitters and receivers, cities in particular will depend on unforetold densities of wireless signals.While Smart City critiques exist on privacy and health concerns, echog mobile phone detractions, this research is concerned that 5G, the carrier for Smart City data, requires many more short-range transmitters, contributing to new levels of wireless signal density globally.This practice-based project interrogates these wireless signals in relation to noise pollution. It engages historical and contemporary studies of noise pollution with the study of the inaudible and invisible wireless signals present in Smart City public and private environments, investigating impacts on public mental health. Through my own practice this research will focus on wireless signals as perceptible, developing ideas of 'expanded listening' and 'listening-beyond-sound', engaging with noise as a way of engaging with new approaches to this silent and invisible 'pollution'Two interview elements inform this project's research and practice:- Focus groups: "making as research", documenting responses artworks in progress and discussing their themes. Exploring political issues of urbanisation and representation in a post-consent context, the results will inform the artwork's final iteration and production archive (to be exhibited alongside work). I elect to collaborate with Londoners of lower income because in today's society they are alienated from the art world, lack both agency in determining their city's future and access to highly commodified Smart economies.- With Smart Computing scientists. I will collate data on projected wireless signal strengths and numbers, and critique their research based on the focus groups' concerns, e.g. on accessibility (language, cost) and agency (control, ownership).
