Everyone can be part of this global performance of Pauline Oliveros’s “Tuning Meditation” over Zoom. The piece is one of a number of sonic meditations that Oliveros created to hone what she called “deep listening” — an art that engages both heart and mind, focus and generosity.


“Begin by taking a deep breath and letting it all the way out with air sound. Listen with your mind’s ear for a tone.” - Pauline Oliveros’s first instruction for Tuning Meditation
