Event Description
Sounding Difference / Listening Care

***SOLD OUT***


An open level listening and sounding event for a collective creative experience


The text scores of Pauline Oliveros are spoken word instructions that are accessible to all: they propose listening strategies and voice toning based on the universal system of seven vowels, the breath, and one's own senses as sources for collective improvisation. Consider Oliveros' thought on listening as multi sensory perception, as care, as a map for social and environmental evolution, as self-organizing sonic beauty,


This will be an experiential gathering to focus on well being and inclusivity in relation to listening attention: to our environment and the more than human sound field, in a memory archive and creative imaginative world making sense. 


In this resonant space, begin with land and body of water acknowledgement, internal listening, a warm up for sounding, toning in microtonal difference tones, exploring the Sonic Meditations and improvisatory Text Scores of Oliveros. Simple phrases that show the way into a sound field.
