	Pauline Oliveros Retrospective (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Oliveros' 50 year association with San Francisco and the Bay Area started when she was a student at San Francisco State University, continued through her founding the San Francisco Tape Music Center and her current position as Darius Milhaud Professor of Composition at Mills College.
		Pauline Oliveros' significance is seen in some of the following ways: Her works are an intuitive synthesis of a wide variety of highly eclectic musical traditions as opposed to the logical outgrowth of a single style or school of composition.
		In 1985, she formed The Pauline Oliveros Foundation reflecting her philosophy that "creativity is the vital spirit of personal and public growth." As early as 1980, Oliveros commented on the lack of support for living women composers.

		Oliveros' first contact with Zen came in the 1960s, and she remains a practicing Tibetan Buddhist.
		Oliveros refers to this as the "witness/universe relationship." Since the environment is by nature unpredictable, Oliveros' music is indeterminate—that is, it is affected by elements of chance.
		Oliveros feels that the forms of meditation and improvisation used in Deep Listening allow one to create music with a complexity difficult for notated music to achieve.

		In all three, Pauline Oliveros demonstrates that her compositional technique has always been driven first and foremost by the sonic results of her experimentations: in other words, by her listening to what she produces.
		(Oliveros has always been a pioneer in much more than just musical composition!) I of IV uses super-heterodyning and a complex tape-delay set-up to weave a densely textured edifice, which has obvious resonances (pardon the pun) with the composer's oft-recounted tales of experimenting as a child with her grandfather's short wave radio set.
		Pauline Oliveros' recent instrumental work - which may loosely be termed minimalist - is well known; indeed this aspect of her work enjoys almost cult status.

		Pauline Oliveros, "Godmother of Ambient" gives JdK the premiere live recording from her sold-out concert at the Ijsbreker, Amsterdam in January 1999.
		Oliveros' "deep listening" philosophy, based around the construction of meditative music, more than amply comes into play with the multi-layered texture of these compositions, and it's hard not to reach a level of trance within only minutes of listening.
		Oliveros has been describing forever as "Deep Listening." "It means listening to everything that can be heard," she says, "in all kinds of ways and while you're doing no matter what.

		Following is the transcript of an interview with Pauline Oliveros, conducted the day after she oversaw a performance at Mills, which doubled as a celebration of the 30th anniversary of the school's center of new music.
		Oliveros: As I said, I was performing my electronic music before there were any synthesizers, also before there was Brian Eno and Fred Frith; so, as a matter of fact, I wrote an article in 1969 that sort of covered tape techniques that I had been working with.

	* Dusted Reviews - Pauline Oliveros *
		In their hushed intensity and breadth of vision, Pauline Olivero’s Deep Listening works for accordion and spatial processing (or actual physical reverberant spaces) have become a benchmark, even if relatively unlauded, of American music in the last half of the 20th century.
		These elements reveal the architecture and underpinnings of Oliveros’s voice as a composer and, despite the sonic contrast, are of a piece with her later, more harmonically lush works, exploiting the richness of wind through accordion reeds.
		Unlike many of her peers, Oliveros seems to have grasped early on the concept that repetition and subtle change are a process of space as much as time.

		What is amazing is that Pauline discovered she could use both modes at the same time, that listening to everything generally did not distract at all from her ability to concentrate on specific things.
		Pauline told me that her biggest obstacle in starting out "was finding those things that were compatible for me to do."She scrounged her living for the first fifteen years she was on her own, but usually managed to get jobs that were music-related.

	KQED \| Public TV: Spark: Pauline Oliveros
		Born in Houston, Texas, in the early '30s, Oliveros learned piano from her mother and grandmother before switching to accordion.
		During the '70s, she sought to strengthen the connection between music (and atmospheric sounds) and the soul leading her to begin a series of performances and practices called "sonic meditations" and "deep listening," the most minute sound or unintentional noises are amplified in the composition's importance.
		Through her work, Oliveros explores what music and sound means to each individual, something that goes back to the "listening versus hearing" thing -- a dichotomy far removed from conventional (fortune) cookie cutter wisdom.

		Ever since my good friend Folke Rabe – Swedish composer, radio producer and cultural diffuser – introduced me to the world and music of Pauline Oliveros, I’ve been fascinated by the diversity and intensity of her activities, as a musician, composer and administrator, and not least thinker and philosopher.
		The most entertaining story about Pauline Oliveros from those days – 1965 – took place when Oliveros had borrowed a house with a lovely view and lime trees in the garden from a priest in Berkeley Hills across the Bay.
		Unfortunately the last bottle was forgotten there by the jolly threesome, and in the morning a horrendous holler from Pauline Oliveros rose out of the kitchen downstairs, where she had descended to fix breakfast.
