What would a culture be like, one that placed as much emphasis in the necessity of listening as in the value of expression?
When we listen we become consciously, and sometimes painfully, aware, and the longer we sustain listening the deeper/vaster our field of awareness becomes - revealing a field of possible relationships. The more embodied the experience of listening, the more its practice alters our habits of attention, allowing ever new attunements to our inner and outer sensory, feeling, and thinking capabilities.
What else is trying to speak, or trying to simply be? And how would a voice, a speech, sound like then, along and amidst all else that which consciousness may be?
In this session we will explore and play together with changes of tempo, with vocal and speech plays, we will surf together waves of sound breath, and more!
Deep Listening is an interdisciplinary awareness and attention practice created by composer Pauline Oliveros, using as main resources listening and sounding scores or meditations, somatic exercises, and imaginal/dream play. It is open to anyone interested in exploring embodied listening as a means to research, play, and recreate relationships with selves, others, and environments.
If possible, bring comfortable clothes, water, and pen/notebook.
