- Summary:
- Offers a guide to ways of listening and sounding, providing insights and perspectives for artists, students, teachers, meditators and anyone interested in how consciousness may be affected by profound attention to the sonic environment. Deep Listening is a practice created by composer Pauline Oliveros in order to enhance her own as well as other's listening skills. She teaches this practice worldwide in workshops, retreats and in her Deep Listening classes at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and Mills College.
