Edda Bild
is an academic with a passion for sound.
I am currently a postdoctoral researcher at McGill University, in Montréal, Québec, Canada, working on urban soundscapes and their relationship to the use of urban spaces.
My interest in sound centers around developing and testing methodologies to document the urban auditory experience and identifying ways to improve it through intentional urban design and planning for both private and public sectors.My work has a strong outreach component, and I engage in multidisciplinary collaborations to promote sound awareness among practitioners, the private sector, and the public.Currently, my research is informed by my teaching and guest lecturer appointments at various educational institutions in the Netherlands and North America (both online and offline). I am based at McGill University in Montréal, Québec, Canada.
