Canadian Origins

Acoustic ecology, sometimes called ecoacoustics or soundscape studies, is a discipline studying the relationship, mediated through sound, between human beings and their environment. Acoustic ecology studies started in the late 1960s with R. Murray Schafer, a musician, composer and former professor of communication studies at Simon Fraser University (Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada), with the help of his team there as part of the World Soundscape Project. The original WSP team included Barry Truax and Hildegard Westerkamp, Bruce Davies and Peter Huse, among others. The first study produced by the WSP was titled The Vancouver Soundscape. This innovative study raised the interest of researchers and artists worldwide, creating enormous growth in the field of acoustic ecology. In 1993, the by-now-large and active international acoustic ecology community members formed the World Forum for Acoustic Ecology.

Eight groups make up the World Forum for Acoustic Ecology

1. Australian Forum for Acoustic Ecology

2. Canadian Association for Acoustic Ecology

3. Finnish Society for Acoustic Ecology

4. Hellenic Society for Acoustic Ecology

5. Japanese Association for Soundscape Ecology

6. Midwest Society for Acoustic Ecology

7. Red Ecologia Acustica Mexico, and the UK

8. Ireland Soundscape Community
