Deep Listening in Northwoods (prohibitive weather location: Wilson Chapel), including a reading of Now by Wren Brian
“Deep listening,” is a concept coined by Pauline Oliveros referring to the conscious listening to nature, as opposed to involuntary hearing. Our event invites members of the Skidmore community to join us in North Woods for a deep listening exercise, aiming to cultivate a heightened awareness of the natural world around us.
