N2 - In the wake of present European interest for mapping urban noise, it seems increasinglyrelevant to investigate the multiple ways in which sound intersects with the everydayexperiences of urban citizens. Focusing on the polluting effects of infrastructural noise,the EU-initiated project of assessment and management of environmental noise bringsforth the disturbing and potentially damaging effect of environmental sound.1 But asmaps of coloured streets start to circulate, and real estate prices drop in designated blueand red areas,2 it is worth remembering that sound itself is not a killer. Most of the timesound is a trivial part of everyday life involved in interactions, experiences, atmospheres,actions, etc. Although trivial, the role of the aural in the urban life world is more complexthan what is suggested by sound level maps, and as such it may be a vital part of urbanityitself. The challenge for planners, designers, and architects is to deal with the auditory notonly as pollution but also as an integrated part of urban experience, promoting fellowshipand liveliness as well as distress.
