The Center For Deep Listening

Deep Listening Workshop
2026-03-13 17:30 - 19:30 (America/Denver) | Nalanda Campus, 6287 Arapahoe Ave, Boulder, CO, 80301, United States
In this worksho, we will practice listening to a depth that goes beyond your ears, that moves into the dream world and takes you to move in your body and connects with your more intimate self. We’ll delve into an exploration of the many possibilities in which we can pay attention to all and to one. We will have moments of gentle movements, guided sonic meditation, we’ll share sounds and we’ll sing, and we’ll work with our dreams and imagination.

Sound Sangha
2026-01-30 12:00 - 13:00 (America/New_York) | Zoom, Array, Array, Array, Array
Sound Sangha is an invitation to explore and celebrate Pauline Oliveros’ Deep Listening®—attention, awareness, embodiment, and the cultivation of sonic imagination.
Together, we engage in practices that expand perception: listening to the environment, listening to each other, and listening to our own inner resonances.
In this weekly community, we listen—with the whole body, with dreams, with memory, with imagination, and with the shifting acoustic field in which we’re embedded.
This is a space for inquiry, experimentation, and shared reflection in community.

Deep Listening Day - Workshop Anchorage Museum
2025-11-21 14:00 - 18:30 (America/New_York) | Anchorage Museum, 625 C Street, Anchorage, AK, 99501, United States
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.
