LISTEN event

LISTEN is an audio series that explores the art of intense listening. In collaboration with Audio Rasa and Overlap.org, Christopher Willits has commissioned * unreleased * sound works from an international pool of acclaimed contemporary sound makers. These unique recordings will be amplified within the beautiful Studio Rasa in Berkeley CA. Come prepared to tune in and zone out.
