Abstract(in English) The authors propose employing interactive music systems for designing soundscape of life space. Expected users of the system are municipal governments, and expected usages are activation of city area, improvement of environment of public spaces and promotion of events. The principles on developing the system are: 1) to be inexpensive. 2) to be easy to cater to needs of measures. The authors named the system M[you]sic and developed the prototype system. It monitors pedestrian traffic with infrared sensors, and generates music. Demonstration experiments have been carried out in Maebashi, Gunma. The results of experiments are: 1) Impression of M[you]sic seems to be fair (from the questionnaire). 2) M[you]sic can be utilized to attract people. The authors are planning to improve the system and to evaluate effects of it, based on analysis of the results of experiments and feedbacks from municipal governments.
