Summarize and what did you learn from the lecture

Answer 1

Electric cars will create less noise a much-needed innovation. They will allow silence and peace in the streets but for the blind and for those who are detached from the surrounding being busy, it can be a problem. Regulations had to be enacted to deal with this problem around the world. These regulations, however, have generated different reactions some favouring sounds and some fearing too much noise. In order to deal with noise creation, we need to compose a new sound that is in harmony with the environment. The landscape can also allow us to develop new solutions so as to reduce the chaos created by the noise. We can, in fact, do that within the legal requirements and with the help of sound design, where sound genres are composed and based on sound genetics.
