Deep Listening Day – Workshop Anchorage Museum

The Anchorage Museum is pleased to host a Deep Listening® workshop in partnership with the Center for Deep Listening at Rensselaer, led by facilitators Simonetta Mignano, Ximena Alarcón-Díaz, IONE, and Stephanie Loveless,.

Deep Listening® is a practice developed by groundbreaking composer and electronic music pioneer Pauline Oliveros, who described it as “a way of listening in every possible way to everything possible, to listen no matter what you are doing.” The practice encompasses bodywork, sonic meditations, interactive performance, and listening to the sounds of daily life—nature, one’s own thoughts, imagination, and dreams. Deep Listening® cultivates a heightened awareness of the sonic environment and encourages experimentation, improvisation, and collaboration.

In this workshop, participants will explore Deep Listening® through sound, movement, and dream. The program begins with an in-person introductory session focused on embodied listening, followed by a hybrid session with renowned guest facilitators that centers on sound and dreams. Participants will also be invited to create their own Deep Listening score. Selected materials generated during the workshop will be assembled into a collective Deep Listening zine, produced by the Anchorage Museum in collaboration with the Center for Deep Listening at Rensselaer.

This workshop is designed for adults and limited to 15 participants who can commit to the full duration. Participation is free, thanks to the support of the Alaska State Council on the Arts. Registration is required. If you have any questions about this program contact Simonetta Mignano at smignano@anchoragemuseum.org.
