Mission
Founded on the conviction that creativity forms the vital spirit of public and personal growth, the Deep Listening Institute fosters the creation of innovative art and associated technologies, and cultivates a global perspective in the arts and education through the practice of Deep Listening.

Deep Listening is a philosophy and practice developed by Pauline Oliveros that distinguishes the difference between the involuntary nature of hearing and the voluntary selective nature of listening. The result of the practice cultivates appreciation of sounds on a heightened level, expanding the potential for connection and interaction with one's environment, technology and performance with others in music and related arts.

History
Founded in 1985 Deep Listening Institute (DLI) provides a context, support structure and technology for artists creating new works in traditional and digital media.

DLI began serving artists in New York City with a concert of new music composed by local artists. Activities commenced in Kingston, NY in 1987 with residencies and productions. Deep Listening Space - a building featuring a gallery, recording studio, office and apartments was purchased in the Historic Rondout in Kingston to house DLI activities in 1995 with assistance from the City of Kingston.
