都市環境中的交通噪音與資訊過載，使居民長期暴露於高密度聲音刺激之中，不僅造成感官疲勞，也逐漸削弱個體對聽覺經驗的自主感知能力。本研究以「感官主體性」為核心議題，透過科技藝術創作建構一套資料驅動的自適應互動聲景系統，探討即時都市資料、物理痕跡生成與互動設計，如何回應資訊過載下的感知壓力，並重新喚起個體對聲音環境的覺察能力。
本作品以臺南市即時交通流量資料（Transport Data eXchange）作為主要環境輸入，透過資料—物理—感知轉譯鏈（即時交通資料 → 物理痕跡生成 → 紅外線感測讀取 → 聲景輸出），結合觀者介入行為，實現 Chaos、Transition、Silence 三種聲景狀態的自適應轉換，系統強調人類介入的權重，邀請參與者透過身體行動影響聲音表現，從而創造重新覺察自身聽覺經驗的契機。
在創作過程中，本研究發現：跨域轉譯不僅將抽象交通資料轉化為可感知的聲景，更重要的是創造了一個可被介入的感知場域。本創作不以「解決」噪音為目標，而是批判性地探問：在技術中介的都市生活中，個體如何透過互動重新找回聽覺自主性？靜默狀態並非完全無聲，而是保留日常環境般的輕微白噪音，讓參與者自行感受與覺察，透過公開展示，本作品試圖提升觀者對都市聲音環境的敏銳度。

In urban environments, traffic noise and information overload constantly expose residents to dense auditory stimuli. This not only causes sensory fatigue but also gradually diminishes individuals’ autonomous perception of auditory experiences. Centered on the core issue of “sensory subjectivity,” this research constructs a data-driven adaptive interactive soundscape system through techno-artistic practice. It explores how real-time urban data, physical trace generation, and interactive design can respond to perceptual pressures under information overload, while reawakening individuals’ awareness of their sonic environment.
This installation primarily utilizes real-time traffic flow data from Tainan City (Transport Data eXchange) as its environmental input. Through a data–physical–perceptual translation chain—real-time traffic data → physical trace generation → infrared sensor reading → soundscape output—and incorporating audience intervention, the system achieves adaptive transitions among three soundscape states: Chaos, Transition, and Silence. By emphasizing the weight of human intervention, it invites participants to influence the sonic expression through bodily actions, thereby creating opportunities to rediscover their own auditory experiences.
Through the creative process, this study finds that cross-domain translation not only transforms abstract traffic data into perceptible soundscapes but, more importantly, creates an intervenable perceptual field. Rather than aiming to “solve” the noise problem, this work critically questions how individuals can reclaim auditory autonomy through interaction in technologically mediated urban life. The Silence state is not a complete absence of sound; instead, it retains subtle white noise resembling everyday environments, allowing participants to sense and perceive on their own. Through public exhibitions, this installation seeks to heighten viewers’ perceptual sensitivity to urban sound environments.
