Since 2010, the port area of Rio de Janeiro has undergone accelerated structural and architectural changes that also transformed the use of public spaces. The Port Sounds (Sons do Porto) project was born in order to accompany these changes, focusing on the sound aspect.
The sound is an important variant of the urban experience that can give clues about how people relate to the city. Space and sound have intimate relationships. The sound creates territories and itself is also modified by cultural manifestations, social and physical place.
