For today's episode, our hosts Francesco and Andrew met up with Prof Catherine Guastavino in Ottawa, during the May meeting of the Acoustical Society of America.

They will be talking about the science and beauty of Sounds In The City - la ville sonore - easily one of the most famous research projects in the soundscape community that has been running for 10 years now. So, how it all started? What's the role of music here? What's the role of noise? And what does the rest have to do with international standards? Stay tuned to find out.

Find Catherine at McGill University.
