We often rely on sight to experience a city, yet its most intimate and widely shared memories are often woven into the sounds of everyday life. This book brings together 26 writers to explore Taipei’s sonic memories across different neighborhoods, communities, and times of day. It also features interviews with radio hosts and soundscapists, inviting readers to walk alongside them and rediscover the city’s rhythms through listening.

This is Taiwan’s first anthology devoted to the concept of “soundscape”. In an urban environment dominated by visual culture, this book introduces an alternative perspective—experiencing the city through listening.
