    C3Places - Using ICT for Co-Creation of Inclusive Public Places
    (Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2021-03) Costa, Carlos Smaniotto; Batista, Joana; Almeida, Inês; Menezes, Marluci; Skaržauskienė, Aelita; Mačiulienė, Monika; Botteldooren, Dick; Renterghem, Timothy Van; Pizzi, Rita; Ceravolo, Paolo; Erjavec, Ina Šuklje; Žlender, Vita; Marušić, Barbara Goličnik; CeIED (FCT) - Centro de Estudos Interdisciplinares em Educação e Desenvolvimento
    This e-book and correspondent platform MyC3Place present the collection of the outcomes carried out by the partners of the C3Places Project.It explores the new dynamics of open spaces as a trusted service for community and expands our understanding on how mediated public open spaces function, paying attention to stakeholders, local context and different social groups. The e-book shows how it's possible to increase the quality of public open spaces (squares, parks, green spaces) as a community’s service, reflecting through ICT the needs of different social groups. Public spaces are critical for cultural identity, as they offer the place for interactions among generations and ethnicities. Even in the digital era, people still need contact with nature and other people to develop different life skills, values and attitudes, to be healthy, satisfied and environmentally responsible. Using ICT and co-creating with users, this e-book expands our knowledge on meeting emerging citizens’ needs about the future public space. All the contents are classified by means of keywords that are described on the following pages. Then the work of each partner is presented in detail.

    Modifying and co-creating the urban soundscape through digital technologies
    (Edições Universitárias Lusófonas, 2020) Botteldooren, Dick; De Pessemier, Toon; Filipan, Karlo; Sun, Kang; De Coensel, Bert; Van Renterghem, Timothy; CeIED (FCT) - Centro de Estudos Interdisciplinares em Educação e Desenvolvimento
    Sound is one of the most dynamic elements of the public open space in cities. The perception and understanding of this sonic environment by its users or society as a whole is commonly referred to as the soundscape. It depends on the noticeability of the composing sounds; the preference, expectations and beliefs of the users; and the overall context that is set by the visual environment and the envisaged use of the space. The local character and the volatility of the soundscape make it an ideal subject for co-creation involving citizens. Digital technologies are applicable for audiovisually predicting the impact of design options. Auralisation, either ab initio or based on multichannel recordings, still involves technological challenges that will be explored in this chapter. Digital technologies can also be used for adding sound accents that allow to change the character of the soundscape, e.g. making it livelier or increasing its mental restoration potential. Such digitally augmented soundscapes can be the direct result of a co-creation effort with the users of the public open space. The innovative combination of creating a tailored soundscape and the ability to achieve this through a co-creation process has a promising potential impact on the user experience in public open spaces.
