SOUND in a man-made environment

拟议的方案是发展和扩大现有的人造环境中的声音方案（GR/S83203/01），其主要特点是举办一个题为“声音”的当代艺术展览，旨在促进公众认识技术进步如何导致环境中声音水平的提高，以及这如何影响我们的日常生活。国家物理实验室将作为合作伙伴加入，并将在技术方面提供建议，并协助整体管理和评估。展览包括原始绘画和3D声景，并辅以海报，解释基本的物理概念以及研究人员解决科学和环境问题的方式。《声音》已在英国五个主要中心展出，即苏格兰议会、爱丁堡动态地球、格拉斯哥科学中心、格拉斯哥当代艺术中心和伦敦城市大学;不久将在贝尔法斯特的海滨和声波艺术研究中心展出。出席人数已经超过目标人数三倍以上。在拟议的新方案中，展览将进一步发展，增加新的绘画和增强音景，以扩大所涵盖的主题范围和展览场地的范围。将在英国和国外寻找新的场地，重点是具有国际意义的大型公共空间，这将吸引媒体报道。已经收到了在班加罗尔市中心的文卡塔帕画廊和在明斯克文化宫举办展览的坚定提议，那里将在国家电视台上播放关于该项目的相关节目。南肯辛顿的自然历史博物馆和基尔马诺克的迪克研究所也表示了兴趣。此外，我们计划开发一个缩小版的展览，可以在较小的场地同时展出。例如，已经收到了在利兹的Round Foundry媒体中心和邓迪的Sensation展出的邀请。在展览的同时，还将在Scifun（爱丁堡大学）和爱丁堡皇家协会的协助下安排一系列的公众和学校会议。

The proposed programme is a development and extension of the existing SOUND in a man-made environment programme (GR/S83203/01), whose central feature is a contemporary art exhibition entitled SOUND aimed at promoting public awareness of the way in which technological advance has led to increased sound levels in the environment and how this affects our every-day lives. The National Physical Laboratory will be joining as partners and will advise on technical aspects as well as assisting with overall management and appraisal.The exhibition consists of original paintings and 3D soundscape supported by posters explaining the basic physical concepts and the way in which researchers are addressing the scientific and environmental problems. SOUND has already been shown at five major centres in Britain, namely the Scottish Parliament, Dynamic Earth Edinburgh, Glasgow Science Centre, Centre For Contemporary Arts Glasgow and the London Metropolitan University; it will shortly show at the Waterfront and Sonic Arts Research Centre in Belfast. Attendance has already exceeded the target number by a factor of more than three. In the proposed new programme the exhibition will be further developed by adding new paintings and enhansing the soundscape in order to extend scope of the topics covered and the range of venues where the exhibition can be shown. New venues will be sought both in the UK and abroad with emphasis on large public spaces of international significance which will attract media coverage. Firm offers have already been received to show the exhibition at the prestigeous Venkatappa Gallery in the centre of Bangalore and also at the Palace of Culture in Minsk where there will be an associated programme on national television about the project. Interest has also been expressed by the Natural History Museum in South Kensington and the Dick Institute in Kilmarnock . In addition, we plan to develop a scaled-down version of the exhibition that can be shown simultaneously in smaller venues. For example, offers have already been received to show at the Round Foundry Media Centre in Leeds and Sensation in Dundee.Alongside the exhibitions will be a series of talks to public and school meetings arranged with the assistance of Scifun (Edinburgh University) and the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
