This workshop is designed to give participants an experience with the different modalities of Pauline Oliveros’ Deep Listening. Though the study of Deep Listening was led by musicians and artists, the practice expanded across disciplines to include martial artists, therapists, bodyworkers, psychologists, and more. This expansive practice can provide great clarity to the listener and is widely applicable to all people seeking a new way to connect with the self and sphere.

Abdominal muscles weaken and lose shape due to past pregnancies, surgeries, sitting at a desk all day, being sedentary and poor posture. Learn a series of extremely effective exercises to quickly strengthen all four layers of your abdominal wall, without stressing back or neck joints and without getting on the floor. Common abdominal exercises like crunches can place too much stress on back and neck joints. *Class will be held online through ZOOM.

Create original experimental sound pieces or present your field recordings and discuss how deep listening affected your mapping of the soundscape.
