Like a music concert except is free in which Schafer referred soundscapes. We have to listen to the sounds and since we make music ourself we could improve it. There are things that are attached to other things but produce one song or sound. Through sound we are able to have information and if we practice hearing does sounds we can then make things like maps and guides.
