Quantum Listening: Pauline Oliveros at 90

SEE EVENT DETAILS
What is the difference between hearing and listening? Does sound have consciousness? Can you imagine listening beyond the edge of your own imagination?

This coming Monday, join IONE, Morton Subotnick, Ramon Sender, Laurie Anderson, Aura Satz and members of the San Francisco Tape Music Center and Center for Contemporary Music to celebrate Pauline Oliveros' life and work, as well as her book Quantum Listening. IONE will lead a Sonic Meditation which will be followed by reflections and remembrances from friends of Pauline.

In response to the anti-war movements of the 1960s, pioneering musician and composer Pauline Oliveros began to expand the way she made music, experimenting with meditation, movement and activism in her compositions. Fascinated by the role that sound and consciousness play in our daily lives, Oliveros developed a series of Sonic Meditations that would eventually lead to the creation of Deep Listening.

Quantum Listening is a manifesto for listening as activism. Through simple yet profound exercises, Oliveros shows how Deep Listening is the foundation for a radically transformed social matrix: one in which compassion and peace form the basis for our actions in the world.

This timely edition brings Oliveros' futuristic vision - blending technology and spirituality - together with a new Foreword and Introduction by Laurie Anderson and IONE.
