A Year of Deep Listening was a 365-day online celebration of Pauline Oliveros’ legacy, coinciding with what would have been her 90th birthday. The Center for Deep Listening, established at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 2014, posted one text score per day, totaling 365 pieces, which will be published in book form on January 28, 2025, as A Year of Deep Listening: 365 Text Scores for Pauline Oliveros. On the podcast, Joseph Bohigian is joined by Stephanie Loveless, a sound and media artist, Director of the Center for Deep Listening, and the editor of this new volume, to talk about the project.
