Abstract

Music induced hearing disorders and noise pollution emerge on the crossroads of technology, culture, and society. This paper argues that multidisciplinary approaches are required to reduce hearing risks at music concerts and related problems of noise pollution. The paper segues from a broad to a narrow perspective looking at the interactions between stakeholders "on the floor." The paper argues that even though noise regulations and hearing risk mitigation policies may be different between nations and states, best practices originate from procedures and policies that are developed from an understanding of the multiple stakeholder perspective and that facilitate dialogues between the different agents involved.
