From 2016 to 2019, I led somewhere north of 15 iterations of SoundMind — a workshop that combined meditation, sensory awareness, and aesthetic activation of the breath, body, and voice. Individually, in pairs, and as a group, participants explored resonance and vibration through touching, listening, and collaborative creation.
Though I had the opportunity to present SoundMind at Westminster Choir College and the Brattleboro Museum and Art Center, the bulk of the workshops were hosted by the Tang Museum, whose site-specific installations I often used as a source of inspiration in the course of developing each workshop. The Tang just published a beautiful catalogue that includes images of some of the first of these workshops, which were held in Liz Collins’ Energy Field installation.
