Ultra rare first edition of this volume of "Collected Writings 1963–80" by the pioneering American composer, published by Smith Publications in 1984.

condition (book): EX

Software for People collects Pauline Oliveros's writings from 1963 to 1980: essays, interviews, reviews, text scores and the reflections that led to the Sonic Meditations and to the idea of Deep Listening. It includes her well-known pieces on the position of women in music, which still read sharply.

Published in 1984 by Smith Publications, the Baltimore house run by Sylvia Smith that did so much for American experimental music on paper. A first-hand source on how Oliveros thought about listening, technology and community.
