While other scholars have studied Oliveros as a disciple of John Cage and a contemporary of composers Terry Riley, Lou Harrison, Gordon Mumma, and Robert Ashley, \u003cem\u003eSounding Out \u003c\/em\u003eresituates Pauline Oliveros in a gynecentric network of feminist activists, writers, artists and musicians. This book shows how the women in Oliveros's life were central sources of creative energy and exchange during a crucial moment in feminist and queer cultural history. Crafting a dynamic relationship between feminism and music-making, this book offers a queerly original analysis of Oliveros's work as a musical form of feminist activism and argues for the productive role of experimental music in lesbian feminist theory. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSounding Out\u003c\/em\u003e combines key elements of feminist theories of lesbian sexuality with Oliveros's major compositions, performances, critical essays, and interviews.
