Display Case 1. Pauline Oliveros. Retrospective In this display case we can see a selection of technological projects made wholly or partly by the artist during her career. They include some of the telematic performances in which she engaged for several decades, as well as the usage of programming languages, sampling, software, and especially the Expanded Instrument System (EIS). 1 Preliminary documentation for Lion ’s Eye (versión HMSL ). Print Pauline Oliveros was commissioned to compose this work in 1985. She prepared two versions during that year, the first to be performed with Gamelan (a traditional Indonesian instrument ensemble), and the second to be played by a synthesiser. Details of the latter are given in this documentation. In the audio files of this exhibition there is a third version made in 1989 and entitled Lion ’s Tale for Sampler , with samplings of the compositions named. 2 Master score of Lion ’s Eye , 1985. Handwritten 3 Score of Lion ’s Eye , 1985. Print 4 Letter from Cornelia Colyer to Pauline Olivero s. Print First page of the “ COMMAND PROGRAMME FOR THE LEXICON 42 DELAY PROCESSOR” . Print Documents related to the Lightning Box project made by the software programmer Cornelia Colyer, during Pauline Oliveros ’ residency in the Banff Centre (Banff, Alberta, Canada) in 1990. One of the aims was to design a programme that overcame the physical limitations of the use of pedals. This element of research would be used later on as part of the Expanded Instrument System (EIS). 5 Crone Music . Diagram of the sound system . Print This diagram outlines the system of delays, peals, and circuit designed for the performance of the work Crone Music (1989-1990), commissioned by the New York-based experimental theatre group Mabou Mines for its production of Shakespeare ’s King Lear . It is performed by Pauline Oliveros and Panaiotis. The work was composed as a solo for accordion and the Expanded Instrument System, still as an analogue version. 6 Programme of the Music, Technology and Innovation Research Centre. New Media Events , 2007-2008. Wednesday, 21 November 2007, 7:00 p.m. 7 The Princeton Laptop Orchestra (PLOrk) , directed by Dan Trueman and Perry Cook, with Zakir Hussain Pauline Oliveros and So Percussion. Ric hardson Auditorium at Alexander Hall , Princeton University . Tuesday, 4 April 2000, 8:00 p.m. Booklet First performing in 2006, the Princeton Laptop Orchestra, or PLOrk, takes the traditional model of the orchestra and reinvents it for the 21st century. Each laptopist performs with a laptop and custom designed hemispherical speaker that emulates the way traditional orchestral instruments cast their sound in space. Pauline Oliveros collaborated with PLOrk the same year of their foundation. 8 Through the Distance. Musical Connection s. A multi-site concert through PictureTel. Saturday, 6 April 1996, 8:00 p.m. Conference Room. Vogelback Computing Cente r, Northwestern University , Evanston, Illinois. Booklet Pauline Oliveros was a pioneer of telematic concerts. Her first on a large scale was performed in 1991 and linked six cities. The telephone line prioritised the strongest signal, and the still image was updated every five seconds. This 1996 performance permitted the transmission of higher quality images and sound. The Deep Listening Band performed in a distributed format with Pauline Oliveros at Northwestern University in Illinois, David Camper at The Kitchen, a contemporary art and performance venue in New York, and Stuart Dempster at the Speakeasy Café in Seattle, Washington. In the large-screen projection in CGAC's Double Space we can view one of these performances at the Guelph Jazz Festival in Ontario, Canada, in 2010. ALL DOCUMENTS BELONG TO F. W.

Booklet ‘The Ghostdance collaboration with choreographer Paula-Josa Jones began in Monterrey Mexico ... Together with our host—composer/ethnomusicologist Arturo Salinas—we attended El Dia de los Muertos in Chalco to help inform our work. The beauty and depth of the ceremonies, ritual dancing and music honoring the dead touched me deeply as did the dancers we worked with in Monterrey. I am grateful for the experience that was shared with me so graciously by the Nahuatl-speaking families of Chalco and the dancers of Monterrey. The Ghostdance soundscape begins with my recording of a flock of grackles who were roosting in the trees by my hotel in Chalco...’ Pauline Oliveros Ghostdance premiered in 1996 at Lincoln Center, New York, as part of out-of-doors, and Radcliffe Yard, Cambdridge, Massachusetts. 9 Skin Flesh.

INTRODUCTION TO THE ORIGINAL VERSION 1 What Grove printed under ‘Gay and Lesbian Music’ was not entirely what we intended, from the title on. Since we were allotted only two 2500 words and wrote almost five times as much, we inevitably expected cuts. These came not as we feared in the more theoretical sections, but in certain other tar- geted areas: names, popular music, and the role of women. Though some living musicians were allowed in, all those thought to be uncomfortable about their sexual orientation’s being known were excised, beginning with Boulez.

More than any other individual, thanks must go to my wife, who has had to put up with more of my rambling than anybody, and has graciously given me half of every weekend for the last several years to keep working. Thank you, too, to my adviser, David Grayson, whose steady support in a shifting institutional environment has been invaluable. To the rest of my committee: Sumanth Gopinath, Kelley Harness, and Richard Leppert, for their advice and willingness to jump back in on this project after every life-inflicted gap. Thanks also to my mother and to my kids, for different reasons. Thanks to the staff at the New York Public Library (the one on 5th Ave. with the lions) for helping me track down the SoHo Weekly News microfilm when it had apparently vanished, and to the professional staff at the New York Public Library for Performing Arts at Lincoln Center, and to the Fales Special Collections staff at Bobst Library at New York University. Special thanks to the much smaller archival operation at the Kitchen, where I was assisted at various times by John Migliore and Samara Davis.
  • Deep Listening with Pauline

    Deep Listening with Pauline

    DEEP LISTENING WITH PAULINE Celebrating the life and legacy of postwar composer and sound artist Pauline Oliveros (1932-2016) Guest curated by Lucas Artists Composer Fellow Luciano Chessa “Listen to everything all of the time and remind yourself when you are not listening.” —Pauline Oliveros “I first collaborated with Pauline in 2009 when I invited her to create a score for my Orchestra of Futurist Noise Intoners. We became friends and I had the wonderful opportunity to work and interact with her on many occasions in the subsequent years. In early November, I was asked by Montalvo’s curatorial team to contact Pauline to see if she would be open to participating in Montalvo’s summer outdoor exhibition Now Hear This! I reached out and she answered immediately, as was customary. On November 24, 2016, only a couple of days after this Montalvo-related exchange, Pauline sadly left us. The idea to transform her participation in Now Hear This! into a celebration and exploration of her work and legacy evolved spontaneously, naturally. A Pauline event was born with no pretense to be exhaustive, with no ambition of creating a retrospective of any sort, and no other necessity than to simply thank her for the gifts she has given us. The guiding principle of this celebration is Pauline’s own notion that the performer is first and foremost a listener. Our homage features three musicians who are familiar with Pauline’s aesthetics and take her work as a point of inspiration (Ashley Bellouin, Elana Mann and Fernando Vigueras), and two of Pauline’s longtime collaborators: San Francisco Tape Center’s co-founder Ramón Sender Barayón, and Deep Listening Band’s co-founder Stuart Dempster.

    THE EXPANDED INSTRUMENT SYSTEM: RECENT DEVELOPMENTS David Gamper with Pauline Oliveros Pauline Oliveros Foundation PO Box 1956 Kingston, NY 12402 <[email protected]>, <[email protected]> Abstract I demonstrate the current configuration and user interface of the Expanded Instrument System, an improvising performance environment for acoustic musicians used extensively by Pauline Oliveros and Deep Listening Band. The constraints from which this configuration emerged are discussed and provide the rationale for the design and implementation decisions made, including those for a custom MIDI interface for the vintage Lexicon PCM 42 delay. I. Introduction The Expanded Instrument System (EIS) is a performer controlled delay based network of digital sound processing devices designed to be an improvising environment for acoustic musicians. Since its presentation at the 1991 International Computer Music Conference [Oliveros and Panaiotis, 1991] the EIS has undergone a radical shift in implementation while maintaining its roots firmly in the work of Pauline Oliveros beginning in the late fifties [Oliveros, 1995]. In the current configuration each performer has appropriate microphones, a Macintosh computer running Opcode’s Max program and a collection of sound processing electronic devices. Foot switches and “expression” type foot pedals are interpreted by programming in Max to control the signal routing from the microphones among the sound processors, as well as control certain functions of the processors themselves. Each of these set-ups is referred to as an EIS station. Sound outputs from each station are distributed to at least four speakers encircling the performance and audience space. On the station’s computer screen [Figure 1], the performer sees a display of the available functions to be controlled and their current state.

    Annea Lockwood, a New Zealand–Born Composer Who Settled in The

    Annea Lockwood, a New Zealand–born composer who settled in the United States in 1973, distinguishes herself with works ingeniously combining recorded found and processed sounds, live-performance and visual components, and exhibiting her acute sense of timbre. Lockwood first explored electro-acoustic music and mixed media in the mid-1960s in Europe. Initially tutored by Peter Racine Fricker and Gottfried Michael Koenig, she gained inspiration from such experimental American composers as John Cage, Morton Feldman, Pauline Oliveros, and Ruth Anderson. While perhaps best known for her 1960s “glass concerts” featuring manifold glass-based sounds and her notorious Piano Transplants—burning, burying, and drowning obsolete pianos—she was drawn to the complex beauty of sounds found in the natural environment, which she captured on tape. Lockwood was especially fascinated with the sonorities of moving water and water’s calming and healing properties and thus started an archive of recorded river sounds. This project led to various sound installations and, most important, to her now legendary and large-scale A Sound Map of the Hudson River (1982) and A Sound Map of the Danube (2005), soundscapes tracing these rivers from their sources to their deltas.1 Lockwood also incorporated recorded sounds of mating tigers, purring cats, tree frogs, volcanoes, earthquakes, and fire in such works as Tiger Balm (1970) and World Rhythms (1975). From the 1970s, she explored improvisation and alternative performance techniques and asked her performers to use natural sound sources and instruments including rocks, stones, and conch shells in Rokke (with Eva Karczag, 1987), Nautilus (1989), A Thousand Year Dreaming (1990), Ear-Walking Woman (1996), and Jitterbug (2007), among other compositions.

  • Deep Listening, Touching Sound

    Deep Listening, Touching Sound

    WHAT IS DEEP LISTENING? What is Deep Listening? There’s more to listening than meets the ear. Pauline Oliveros describes Deep Listening as “listening in every possible way to everything possible to hear no matter what one is doing.” Basically Deep Listening, as developed by Oliveros, explores the difference between the involuntary nature of hearing and the voluntary, selective nature – exclusive and inclusive -- of listening. The practice includes bodywork, sonic meditations, interactive performance, listening to the sounds of daily life, nature, one’s own thoughts, imagination and dreams, and listening to listening itself. It cultivates a heightened awareness of the sonic environment, both external and internal, and promotes experimentation, improvisation, collaboration, playfulness and other creative skills vital to personal and community growth. The Deep Listening: Art/Science conference provides artists, educators, and researchers an opportunity to creatively share ideas related to the practice, philosophy and science of Deep Listening. Developed by com- poser and educator Pauline Oliveros, Deep Listening is an embodied meditative practice of enhancing one’s attention to listening. Deep Listening began over 40 years ago with Oliveros’ Sonic Meditations and organi- cally evolved through performances, workshops and retreats. Deep Listening relates to a broad spectrum of other embodied practices across cultures and can be applied to a wide range of academic fields and disci- plines. This includes, but not limited to: • theories of cognitive
