Join us for a two-day hands-on workshop for adults led by sound artist Ludwig Berger, inviting participants to attune to their sonic environment in dialogue with the themes of Oscillating Spaces. On the first day, the participants will focus on deep listening practices developed by Pauline Oliveros—an ensemble of sonic meditations, movement, and breathwork intended to deepen auditory perception. On the second day, participants will explore the urban soundscape surrounding the CCA, working with a range of field recording techniques to compose brief audio pieces that respond to our shared acoustic and built environment.

Open to 16 adults. No prior experience is required. Participants are expected to bring their own laptops and, if possible, wired headphones for the workshop on Sunday 15 June.

Workshop participation is CAD 35 for one day or CAD 60 for both days.

Please register here.
