Re-writing of city-text through audial

Abstract

This thesis investigates and argues for the new ways of experiencing the city through audial. In this context, sound environment of the city is considered as potential for new possibilities of urban experience. Simultaneously, borrowing from Roland Barthes, semantic reading of the city is used as a method to analyze the urban in all contexts. In other words, city-text is analyzed through sounds of the city and number of video/sound experimentations accompany this analysis both as subjects and objects of this study
