Event Name: Listening as Activism Event Locator: 2024-AASGSB Event State: Confirmed Organization: Gros Institute Pauline Oliveros (1932-2016) was a pioneering electronic composer and academic who devised a unique approach to music called “Deep Listening,” which focused on meditative and improvisatory aspects of music-making, hearing, and listening. Her activism was rooted in the idea that “the personal is political,” and the act of deep listening while engaging in exercises that explore sound creation is a way to heal ourselves and, in turn, the world. The series of pieces, "Sonic Mediations", invites participants regardless of musical experience to perform the works as a healing practice, or a “tuning of mind and body.” For this presentation, we will learn more about Oliveros and her career, and move on to impromptu performances of the “Sonic Meditations.”
