Can you listen to your insides and outside at the same time?  

A workshop in the form of a rehearsal in the form of a piece of music 

The voice is the most intimate kernel of the self. Expressed up from our insides, our voices resonate the voids of the body, as they make their way through the oral orifice, the portals of our noses and mouths, and out into an external world. “out there”, free of ourselves our voices become part of an acoustic landscape of vibrant chaos. This workshop asks us to feel into voice as a tool for navigation, for knowing how we are (Observe) where we are (Orient) and where we are going (decide) in a landscape for listening.  

We will spend the first 3 hours rehearsing how to “observe, orient, & decide” then for the final hour we will “act” as a group to create a work-in-process with our listening bodies. We will undertake a series of exercises in listening with the felt sense, voicing with the whole body and navigate one another with attunement.
