A Moment of Rest: Integrating Deep Listening
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that.” — Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Listening session. Join multidisciplinary artist James Allister Sprang for 45 minutes of deep listening, supported by an award-winning score of ambient spiritual jazz and poetry. Sprang describes deep listening as a radical act meant to consciously bring awareness to the present moment while welcoming our bodies, our ancestors, our traumas, our pain, our longings, visions, and dreams. Much like a sound bath, he invites you to attend, to turn inward, and to be moved by what you find there. This session will be preceded by a short talk on Sprang’s community work and aural/oral activism using America’s only 4DSound system — an advanced spatial technology that allows one to treat space as an instrument. In this work, Sprang has choreographed individual elements of his compositions to move like physical objects, thereby activating the question, “How can we tune into that which does not physically hold space with us.”
