Dr Lawal Marafa of the Chinese University of Hong Kong's Department of Geography and Resource Management explains what soundscaping is.
Soundscaping is a method of filtering or masking sounds which are annoying or stress-inducing with either physical obstacles to block sound waves or using calming, natural sounds to drown out noise pollution. In the way landscaping makes environments more aesthetically pleasing, soundscaping aims to make environments more aurally pleasing.
In this video, Dr Marafa explains the process in more detail before giving a few examples of how soundscaping is used in Hong Kong and talking about the benefits of the process.
