Ximena

Deep Listening® is a creative practice developed by the pioneering composer Pauline Oliveros, informed by expanding the range of audible forms beyond ordinary sound perceptions in daily life. The practice of Deep Listening is intended to heighten awareness of sound, silence and sounding.

 

Deep Listening® includes IONE’s Listening in Dreams, and Heloise Gold’s Deep Listening body experience.

​

I offer Deep Listening® workshops (one to three hour sessions) and immersions one to two days), customised to your community.

 

I also mentor students and researchers, who are interested in incorporating Deep Listening® practice in their work, and offer consultancy to organisations.

Experience

​

I have been studying the practice since 2008, and in 2012 became a Deep Listening® Certificate facilitator. I am based in Bath, UK. I have offered Deep Listening meditations and taught the practice at Sound Art, Technology and Music Festivals, Museums, and Universities, across the world, bringing together cross-arts and interdisciplinary communities, to experience and reflect on their listenings, soundings and silences, within their communities of practice. 

​

Currently, I am a Senior Tutor at the Center for Deep Listening online certification program, at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, NY.
