What can sound teach us about the spaces we inhabit, and the spaces of our very bodies? Sound’s power to penetrate, permeate, and envelop has been used by many composers and sound artists to explore this and related questions.  Join me in exploring the workshop space acoustically. We will explore sound-art processes and textual scores by composers like Alvin Lucier, Maryanne Amacher, and others, as well as some of my own and any we enact collaboratively following the curiosity of the moment.

(No musical training required!).
