John Drever coined this phrase, extrapolated from Yi-Fu Tuan's concept Topophelia.
For Tuan, topoplelia is the emotionally positive feelings people have to a given place. Positive feelings such as pride, fondness for a place and its subjective history. Ownership of a place, health, family and personal involvement in the place. (Tuan, Topophelia, 1974).
Drever takes this notion and concentrates it upon the sonic. The positive and subjective principles remain, but we focus on the relationship to the sounds.
