Britten Voice Range
As we discussed earlier, the voice ranges that Britten chooses in this particular opera is very
interesting. Britten expanded the voice range in all voices in order to allow the listener to have a
better understanding in characters. As Godsalve said "...four special things stand out in setting
voices; the assignment of voice classes to roles, the use of recitative and aria, textual changes, and
the combination of two or more voices..."1 (156). Britten is very aware of all these changes and
make sure that all of these applies to his composition. For an example, by using counter–tenor in the
music, it allows Britten to illustrate the difference between human and fairy. Since Oberon is a
representation of non–mortal, it's very interesting to see ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
It shows that in order to create power and difference between human and immortal, by using unique
voice ranges allows Britten to explore the possibilities that no one else have ever tried. Furthermore,
because Oberon's natural voice was higher, by using the counter–tenor it allows him to have a high
voice sound quality which is best fit with the creature that have magical power. Furthermore, it also
gives the audience an illusion that the characters have "magical" power and also abilities to create
without any restrictions. On the other hand, because Tytania represent power and domination as a
queen, by adding coloratura soprano to her roles it gives her power because as a singer, in order to
have become a coloratura soprano, one must require to have high level of control over her demand,
and have the confident to perform high virtuosity with an ease. Therefore, it can symbolize that

Comparing Voice In Poetry And Psalms 6
Voice is a main force that drives along a piece of literature, it adapts to new paths and takes on new
meanings based on the speaker, addressee, context, and many other factors. In "If You Want to Sing"
from Islamic Mystical Poetry and Psalms 6, through similar basic structures, both writings deploy
voice in order to describe suffering and affirmation of each respective speaker's position. However,
through this fundamental parallel, the differences in the particularities of the voices employed are
further highlighted. The similarity in the general voice and structure allow for higher scrutiny of the
individual texts, accentuating the particular differences in emotionality and clarity that the respective
voices carry. Though seemingly different on first look, the two writings follow a similar pattern and
basic plot. In both, there is an encouragement ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In terms of voice, generally, both deploy a very declarative voice, announcing their struggles and
sufferings. Towards the end, however, both move to a more affirmative voice that sustain their stable
positions in triumphing against their enemies. Through this similar scheme and movement though
different voices, a greater window is created to inspect more meticulously at the detailed differences
between the two works in terms of voice. Although they both do deploy a declarative voice in the
beginning, there are nuances that give the writings a different meaning and light. Specifically,
Psalms 6 brings more emotionality to the way suffering is described. For example, Psalms 6 spends
verse two, three, six, and seven just describing in detail how much anguish is felt. In verse six,
crying is illustrated through two different ways, flooding the bed and drenching the couch, which
constructs a tangible picture in the readers' minds. However, this may be due to the fact that there
are simply more details and quantity of the text for the suffering as compared

Experiments with the Human Voice: Max Mathews Essay example
The voice is a crucial tool within the history of sound as it appears in so many different,
interconnected forms and disguises. An experience of voice auditory within history generally can be
experienced through different movements that can be observed with regards to the figure of voice.
The voice in terms of presence and sound helps in understanding the voice also in terms of
techniques and manipulations. These terms presented are influenced within countless vocal
techniques and manipulations with properties of time and spatial aspects. How it effects the voice
through these aspects can also give the reality or even illusion of times and space, and how it

Extended Vocal Technique can prove to be a very pure management of the voice, and depending on
certain timbral techniques used can effect how we hear and perceive vocal sounds within certain
spaces. An extended vocal method is in some ways a pure voice experience, which is beautiful and
inimitable in itself. It pushes the limitations of what most would think about a standard singing
method by including any or all of the sounds the human voice can make. Luciano Berio wrote
'Sequenza III (1966)' for his wife and also singing actress named Cathy Berberian. It was created as
a unique challenge as it was a piece that could not be imitated exactly the same. In Sequenza III we
experience the voice as the only expressive tool revealing a list of 15 techniques according to Berio.
Some of his techniques include, "salvoes of laughter," "teeth–chattering," "tongue–trill against the
upper lip," as well as "44 agogic markings" such as "far away," "dreamy," "ecstatic," "extremely
intense" and "fading away." It's an exploration that give us a perpetual experience, by using such
distinctive vocal techniques adjusting volumes tones and pitch so it increases and decreases the
space covered. It gives an illusion to the listener in terms of echo, reverberation and the duration of
particular vocal sounds.

Telling A False Statement On Voice Spectrum
Research Plan:
The rationale of this project is to test and experiment on the idea that your voice spectrum is affected
when you lie, to gain further knowledge on how to prevent and detect liars. As human beings, most
of us lie more than we want to think we do. Lying is considered a wrong doing and given time to
think most liars recognize it, but some of the first concerns among humans is self–preservation,
self–esteem, and dodging consequences or dangerous situations. People lie verbally and nonverbally
through body language, facial expressions, etc. A person's voice can demonstrate aspects of their
inner feelings which can help researchers in recognizing cues in someone's voice towards their
emotional state and in making robots that have abilities to allow it to become constructive in our
society, doing tasks like detecting deception. Understanding the basic concept of lying, how, and
why people do it can assist engineers, and scientists to better protect our nation from deceit and to

Theme of Voice in Their Eyes Were Watching God Essay
Breaking Through
In the novel "Their Eyes Were Watching God" written by Zora Neale Hurston, Janie the protagonist
is seen by critics as having no voice. For all women silence knows no boundaries of race or culture,
and Janie is no exception. Hurston characterizes Janie with the same silence that women at that time
& period were forced into, (complete submission.) "Women were to be seen and not heard." Janie
spends forty years of her life, learning to achieve/find, her voice against the over–ruling and
dominate men in her life. But in the end Janie comes out the victor, breaking the silence. In her
essay "What do Feminist Critics Want?" Gilbert states, "Like Wagner's master singers....men had the

Janie's actions are stronger than words, Janie's trial at the end of the novel, proves, Janie's silence to
be more powerful than articulation.
Hurston uses the narrative consciousness in Their Eyes, to characterize those who are silent and lack
their own voice, by doing this Hurston gives depth, to those whose voices, are heard. Throughout
the entire novel, the development of the male voice seems to parallel the development of Janie's.
The men in Janie's life have voices, and it is by her relationships with these men, that Janie's voice
gets stronger. Janie becomes more self confident with each relationship she endures. Hurston, by
using the consciousness narrative, is actually speaking for Janie; the narrator and Janie are like one.
This might be the reason that Hurston gives little voice to Janie's character. Janie is not silenced in
the novel, she is expressed through the narrative. Which if the reader does not close read, the reader
will not comprehend this aspect of Hurston's novel.
Passion and control correspond to voice and silence, as expressed by the three relationships in
Janie's life. Hurston brings together the men and women in her novel, comparing Janie's personal
growth to the three significant men in her life ( Logan, Starks, Tea Cake, which all three were her
husband.)

Voice Over Internet Protocol Term Paper
Introduction
Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP) is a technology that offers voice communications using the
existing Internet protocols. Over the years the Internet has developed as a very cheap medium that
has been used to send electronic mails and files across the globe. VoIP extends this concept and
provides the facility to send voice data between people using the IP framework. Since the Internet is
a cheap medium, enabling voice services through it will effectively cut costs that are normally
encountered in making calls through normal telephone lines. This would mean that people across the
world can talk to each other at a fraction of the cost that they could be spending when they use
normal telephone lines. This is exactly what makes ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
How VoIP functions
At the basic level, VoIP functions much like the common Internet services that are available today.
Voice data is received at one end of the IP network and is compressed, digitized, and broken down
into data packets with unique serial numbers. A universal lookup table or an IP reference table helps
the server at the call originating end to find out the IP of the receiver to whom the call is placed.
Once the IP is resolved, data is sent to the destination IP much in the same fashion that emails and
web data is transferred across the network. The data packets that are received at the destination end
is collected, arranged according to sequence numbers, and converted back to analog signals so that
the receiver can hear the voice. VoIP is possible between two computers, between two telephones
that are connected to a network or even between a computer and a telephone. This means that a
person with a PC can originate a call to a landline or vice versa [Jain, 2004]
The advantages of VoIP
• Voice and Data Integration
VoIP is a definite step towards integration of voice and data; a need that has been increasingly
researched since the last few decades. Integration of voice and data would mean that data transfer
can be controlled effectively thereby making data manipulation faster and more secure. VoIP will

Use Of Voice Inside Our Minds
There are many ways of self–expression. We may express ourselves through music, written and oral
interpretation, our political affiliation, and lastly, our voice. Though we may not realize it, we are
under the constant influence of the power of voice. Whenever we read an article, type an essay, or
even think, we are likely to employ the use of voice inside our minds. It could be our own, a friend,
a favorite actor 's voice, or for some people, all of them combined. Another factor we typically
associate to a voice is an image. While subtle, image plays an amazingly crucial role in how we are
to appear to our audience. No one would want to pay for expensive tickets to see an artist live with
otherwise lackluster cadence. Individuals also, probably, might not vote for a candidate if they were
to use their voice to spread oppressive, immoral, or even awkward and unprofessional values; it
would affect their public image. In this essay, we will analyze how our legitimacy (public image;
authority) effect how our voices, and ideas, are heard. In all four cited monologues, each of the
narrators has some pre–conceived notion of how they want to be viewed and heard among their
audience. In "The Candidate", Bill Peduto stresses the importance of his voice and all the variables

8.8. Spam over IP telephony (SPIT) Spam over IP telephony (SPIT), includes prerecorded,

correspondences convention called Session Initiated Protocol (SIP). Taste recognizes the vicinity of
a VoIP handset. Dialer projects can convey a spontaneous modified message, and have a superior
possibility of a beneficiary grabbing the call (Phithakkitnukoon, 2008). SPIT conveys with it
different dangers, for example, DoS assaults, and the unapproved utilization of assets (data transfer
capacity), making SPIT substantially more than an annoyance. SPIT 's belongings are decreased by
a strong patch administration arrangement, VoIP empowered firewalls are likely equipped for
recognizing SPIT, and make a verification instrument to distinguish genuine approved guests. To put
it plainly, the rationality of battling SPIT is fundamentally the same to current day routines used to

These are some definitions:
"In grammar, the voice of a verb describes the relationship between the action (or state) that the verb
expresses and the participants identified by its arguments (subject, object, etc.). When the subject is
the agent or doer of the action, the verb is in the active voice. When the subject is the patient, target
of the action, the verb is said to be in the passive voice". ( " Voice" n.d.)
"Voice is a grammatical category of verbs that is related to what thing or person is acting and what
thing or person is being acted upon." (Crystal, 2002)
There are two voices in English : active voice and passive voice. While active is used to focus on the
doer, passive voice is used to emphasize on the reciever or the act rather than the performer. Take
this sentence as a example:
" Her brother was captured by the police."
"Her brother" is the recipient of the action "captured" was emphasized and the performer is " the

Even though there is a cost for internet service, using VOIP over this service may not involve any
extra charges, so the users view the calls as free.

plans that provide consumers with unlimited local, regional and long distance flat rates at costs that
are significantly cheaper than PSTN services. Additionally, VoIP services include features such as
name and number caller ID, call forwarding, call blocking, and voice mail as standard features.
Whereas, traditional phone companies typically charge premiums for these features. According to
CNet.com editor Neil Randall says voice quality is so good that it can easily replace a traditional
phone line. While some providers only provide e–mail customer service, Vonage offers both online
and phone support.
Business and consumers are already taking advantage of the cost savings and new features however
some larger companies are withdrawing away from VOIP because it costs too much to replace their

Factors Affecting Voice Differences
Before puberty all voices, male or female, sound alike. But as the hormones come into play, they
cause the male larynx to become larger and the vocal folds lengthen and thicken. Not only are there
internal factors that play a role in the voice changing there are also physical factors, depending on
the height and weight of an individual that could affect the tone, pitch and frequency. The purpose of
this assignment was to better understand these differences.
As defined in our class manual, voice onset time (VOT) refers to the time difference between a
voiced stop closure and a voiceless stop. It is determined by the articulatory blockage at the
beginning of vocal fold vibration for the following vowel. Among the various factors of VOT
variations include; phonetic context, place of articulation, speech tempo, and speakers' gender. For

However, many female singers, such as Mariah Carey, do employ falsetto to extend their range.
Whistle: The physiology of the whistle register is the most poorly understood of the vocal registers.
It is known that when producing pitches in this register vibration occurs only in some anterior
portion of the vocal folds. This shorter vibrating length naturally allows for easier production of
high pitches. The physiological process that causes this is not currently known.
Though the whistle register is most commonly used to produce pitches above E6, it can be used to

folds and not a range of pitches. There is, however, no universally agreed upon scheme for
classifying vocal registers, so it is common to see other definitions. See the article on vocal
registration for a discussion.
[edit]
In the European classical music, the whistle register is only rarely called for. When it is, it is
exclusively used by coloratura sopranos to produce pitches above C6. Probably the most well–
known example of the whistle register in European classical music is the aria "Der Hölle Rache
kocht in meinem Herzen" from the opera Die Zauberflöte; it calls for several pitches above C6, up
to F6.
In the popular music of the West, the whistle register is used more often than in its classical music. It

The History of Music: The Human Voice
Singing – producing musical sounds with the voice, and augments regular speech by the use of both
tonality and rhythm.
One who sings is called a vocalist. Singers perform music such as arias, recitatives and songs these
can be sung with or without accompaniment by musical instruments.
Air comes out of the lungs and goes through the trachea then into the larynx this air makes the vocal
folds vibrate. When the vocal folds vibrate air is trapped and then released. Each release sends a bit
air into the pharynx each puff of air is the beginning of a sound. The sound wave is enhanced as it
moves through the pharynx by the time it leaves the mouth it sounds like a voice.
Singing is a well–defined technique that depends on the use of the lungs, which act as an air supply
on the larynx. The larynx is the voice box. The vocal folds (also called vocal cords) are part of the
larynx which creates the sound of the voice on the chest and head cavities, which amplify on the
tongue and together with the palate, teeth, and lips create vowels on the amplified sound. When
breathing, air is inhaled with the diaphragm while exhalation occurs without any effort. The pitch is
altered with the vocal cords. The shape of the chest and neck the positioning of the tongue, and the
tightness of muscles can change the pitch, volume and timbre of the sound produced. People can
manipulate their voices in different ways to make different sounds. These different kinds of larynx

Personal Narrative: My Voice
My voice as it is now/My voice as I would like it to be I notice many things about my voice.
Whether I talk with a vocal fry around my friends, which seems to be a California specialty, or in a
higher register with teachers, the placement of my voice constantly varies. I am aware that my
timbre is high and that my tone is bright, and, to state it plainly, I enjoy that. However, there are
aspects of my voice that I notice and dislike; my voice breaks between my lower and middle register
noticeably and gets tired quickly. When I sing I am most aware of my voice because I am
concentrating on so many different aspects of technique such as breathing, placement, and tone.
Singing only feels good to me when it is extremely resonant and focused, because that feels free but
controlled. I am also aware I have a lot of range left to conquer – I know I have notes in my whistle
tone register, but sometimes have trouble accessing them. When other people hear my voice, they
comment on its' bright tone, high pitch, and clear focus. However, they also comment on its' softness
because I struggle to increase volume while singing. In workshops, peers have commented on how

Hyperfunctional Voice Disorders Research Paper Outline
Hyperfunctional Voice Disorders
Hyperfunctional voice disorders are voice problems that happen when uncontrollable tightening
(spasm) prevents the vocal cords from working properly. Vocal cords normally move back and forth
to make sounds when air passes through the voice box (larynx). If you have a hyperfunctional voice
disorder, the area of the brain that controls vocal cord movement does not send the right signals.
This causes the vocal cords to spasm. Hyperfunctional voice disorders might also be referred to as
muscle tension dysphonia.
Sometimes the spasms force the vocal cords open when they should be closed. This makes you lose
your voice. Sometimes the spasms cause the vocal cords to close too tightly. This makes your voice

DIAGNOSIS
You may be diagnosed with a hyperfunctional voice disorder based on:
Your symptoms.
Your medical history.
A physical exam to check your larynx and evaluate your speech.
Procedures that are done to:
○ Examine your throat with a scope that has a tiny camera on the end (laryngoscope). The scope
projects images onto a monitor (direct laryngoscopy).
○ Examine the movement of your vocal cords in the reflection of a mirror (indirect laryngoscopy).
○ Check the movement of your vocal cords in slow motion, using a special flickering light
(laryngeal stroboscopy).
○ Test the electrical activity of your larynx muscles (electromyography or EMG).
You may also see a health care provider who specializes in conditions of the ear, nose, and throat
(otolaryngologist or ENT specialist) or conditions of the nervous system (neurologist).
TREATMENT
There is no cure for this condition. The goal of treatment is to relieve symptoms and improve the
quality of your voice. Treatment depends on the specific type of voice disorder you have, and may
include:
Injections of botulinum toxin to block the brain signals that cause your vocal cords to spasm. These
injections need to be repeated because the effects last only 3–4

there is a demand for governmental mandate, perhaps for voluntary (but ubiquitous) business action,

Sexual Dimorphism in Human Voice: Female Mate Choice and...
As in other sexually reproducing anisogamous species, humans have sexually dimorphic traits of
both morphological and behavioural kinds. Such traits are said to have evolved through sexual
selection, the limiting force allowing individuals to out–reproduce others. At the level of gametes,
we expect asymmetries in reproductive effort and in reproductive potential, which yields sexual
dimorphism. According to Triversian Parental Investment Theory (PIT), the sex of a species who
provides higher post–zygotic investment, typically the female, would be more selective in mates,
such that the sex who invests less in a species, typically the male, would require traits seen as
attractive in order to have selective advantage. Moreover, as females serve as the limiting resource
for reproduction, PIT predicts that males are expected to have higher variance in reproductive
success (RS) than females, so intrasexual selection would operate more strongly in males, whose
aggressive competition for mate access would yield differences in fitness maximising strategies,
whether through somatic or behavioural traits. Thus, sexual selection, is the primary explanation for
sex differences within a Darwinian framework. Vocal characteristics in men and women are
considered sexually dimorphic traits. Puts, Jones and DeBruine (2012) cited that women's average
voice pitch post–puberty is much higher than men's, that men speak in a more monotone voice, and
that men's vocal tracts and vocal folds are

Active Voice
Voice:
In simple words, Voice (in other words (but rarely said) is also called, diathesis) is a term that
describes the relation between an action (verb) taken by the subject, the subject (the one who
performs the action) and the object (the thing being acted upon).
Active Voice:
Active voice is most commonly used verb. Active voice is where; the subject is the one who
performs an action (verb), while object is the thing being acted upon.
When the subject performs an action, the verb is in Active voice.
For example:
The mouse ate the cheese.
Here, the mouse is the subject, ate is the action (verb) and cheese is the object. Since the subject is
doing an action, we say that the verb is in active voice.

Sarah has written a book on her family.
Here, Sarah is the subject, written is the active verb and book is the object.
Uses of the Active Voice:
Active sentences are more direct (This proves that the subject admits that he was the one who did
the act) and engaging for the reader. The sentences are shorter and allow you to express an
authoritative tone. And they are also often less confusing and ambiguous.
Passive Voice:
Passive voice is where; the object is suspected to have done an action (verb) and the subject is the
thing being performed on.
When the subject is the target for an action, then the verb is in Passive voice.
For example:
The cheese was eaten by the mouse.
Here, the cheese is the subject, eaten is the passive verb and mouse is the object. Since the subject is
the one being suspected for the action, we say that the verb is in the passive voice.

Voice Of Voice Over Internet Protocol
Abstract
When Voice over Internet Protocol was being introduced, it was perfectly engineered to work using
the existing model and infrastructure without bearing huge cost. VoIP uses Internet Protocol to
connect, transmit and terminate the calls. Most of the industry is using VoIP services to connect their
offices locally, in different cities and in different countries. VoIP enables User/client to place a
telephonic call to their offices/friends/families. This paper will focus on how VoIP works and what
are the security concerns. Also the industry's concern about Quality of Service (QoS) and will
discuss about threats in general.
Introduction
IP is used for data communication and for "Voice Dialogue" exchanged between two parties, is also
carried on the same data network. Data network could be a private network (Local offices within a
city or many cities in the same country/region and also using IPLC's to connect other
countries/continents) or on Internet by creating Hard/soft VPN tunneling in between the offices. In
general discuss it is considered on the Internet only but it being used by creating point to point
connect using Wireless or only data connectivity between two office. Using Internet to transmit VoIP
traffic is very inexpensive as compared to Local data connectivity or using your IPLC. Phone calls
are placed using VoIP over any kind of data connectivity. The simplest way of VoIP communication
is, when both the parties can receive and make calls using internet.

The Debilitating Experience of Hearing Voices in One's Head
Hearing voices is considered to be a defining symptom of having a mental illness. The experience of
these voices can often be categorised as a debilitating condition that can cause an extreme impact on
daily life by weakening or disrupting contact with reality (Kalhovde, Elstad and Talseth 2013).
However, according to the Mental Health Foundation (N.D) this is not always the case as many
people hear voices but never find them to be a problem or feel as if they need to seek help from
mental health services.
In order for this assignment to be written, a visualisation was produced as part of the process. The
idea behind this was to create a strong focus on one particular aspect of a mental health issue which
would then allow a question ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Romme and Escher (1989) focused particularly on the idea of hearing voices and spent a lot of time
gathering research around this subject. They indicated that most people who heard voices had
suggested that it had begun quite suddenly, yet it became a moment that they remembered well
because of that reason. Many believed that their voice hearing had begun because of a traumatic or
emotional event, such as an accident, divorce or death or other events such as illness, being in love,
moving or pregnancy. These types of reasons are things that people may not experience everyday
but could be faced with at some point during their life time, suggesting that hearing voices is
somewhat a common occurrence and not as unusual as what society perceive it to be.
Various different experiments have taken place in order to shed some light on this controversial
topic and address coping mechanisms that are used in order for people to manage their voice hearing
effectively. An attempt was also made to highlight the differences between those who are mentally
ill and are familiar with hearing voices and those who have had no diagnosis of mental illness, yet
still experience similar hallucinations. Firstly, Romme and Escher (1989 cited in Kalhovde, Elstad
and Talseth 2013) "introduced the perspective that hearing voices is a reaction to problems in life
and need not be a symptom of a mental disorder". An experiment was put

With the introduction of Ethernet services the quality was able to get better. There was better clarity
but there were still some bugs due to static and difficulty making connections.
In the beginning VoIP traffic represented rather less than 1% of voice traffic. In 1998 three IP switch
manufacturers introduced equipment capable of switching (intertangent, 2005). With these
implementations by the year 2000 the voice traffic had risen only two more percent to 3%. This is
not a huge leap but there are many advances that are still being made and the numbers will continue
to grow.
The real breakthrough occurred when such systems like Cisco Systems and Nortel started producing
VoIP equipment that was capable of switching (Viopreview, 2005). With the introduction of
switching it was no longer the CPU's responsibility to switch the voice packets. With the
introduction of the new switching this made it to where the computer did not require specific
hardware to be able to use VoIP. When the switches were introduced this made the hardware cheaper
and allowed larger companies to be able to implement their calls via the internet.
VoIP has not really caught on with the general public, but has been primarily used by large
corporations. The general public does not really search out things such as this because they

Significance And Innovation Of The Proposed Research
Significance and innovation of the proposed research The use and comprehension of the passive
sentence structure is the subject of much debate in the field of psycholinguistics. There have been
many studies conducted addressing the issue of why passive sentence structures are so underused as
compared to active sentence structures in children. Several studies have tried to show that passive
sentence structures can actually be elicited through structural priming, or more generally being more
exposed to that specific type of sentence. Although plenty of research as been conducted examining
the P600 response in reference to various types of syntactical anomalies, I could not find one study
that was specifically focused on the priming of passive sentence structures, even though it is said
that the P600 should respond to this specific sentence structure. Therefore, the proposed study will
contribute to the field of psycholinguistics by examining the P600 response of children using the
structural priming paradigm. Based on the results of the study, the study may also be able to
determine if the P600 response could serve as an adequate neural marker for the effectiveness of
passive voice structural priming.

Personal Narrative-Grounded In My Voice
At the start of the semester I had become more aware and grounded in my voice. In my everyday
life, I would notice if I was holding my breath. The reason for this was because over the summer I
had to stand–up to one of my shut–up judges, my dad. The incident was extremely emotional, and I
coped with it through the use of my actor training; instead of checking out and holding tension, I
chose to breathe deeply and stay grounded. This allowed me to speak up even when I was told to
shut–up. This awareness of breath was developed through necessity rather than choice. I had to be
strong. My strength didn't only come from being grounded in my breath, but it also came using
breathe to stay present in the room. The use of breath also allowed me to go into my body and
release the build–up of emotions. As a result of these experiences, my voice was able to drop more
consistently to my lower resonator rather than my typical chest voice.
The new drop in my voice had its own challenges as well. One, of course, was to avoid reverting
into old habits. When it comes to voice work, effort should be applied every day. Just because I was

How Social History Has Given Voice Of The Voiceless
When studying history, historians see how social history has given voice to the voiceless. There
have been countless ways and instances when social history has exposed the histories of ancient,
medieval, as well as early modern peoples that had previously not been investigated. Many great
individuals throughout history, with their writings have given the people of their time a great voice.
While these writings and actions have given these individuals a voice, these voices continue with the
history of their people throughout their time as well as after their time. The "Loyalist Teaching", is
an ancient Egyptian set of texts with a series of instructions, in the text it is set as a father speaking
to his children. In the texts, it gives details about loyalty, more importantly, obedience and loyalty to
the pharaoh as well as how members of society must be respectful to the citizens and continue to
participate in their civic duty. In the texts, it is said, "The king is Sustenance; his speech is Plenty.
The man he makes is someone who always exist. He is the heir of every god, the protector of his
creators. They strike his opponents for him." (Unknown 27) While in this text, it does not seem to be
giving a direct voice to those who do not have one, it gives a clear picture of how individuals in that

A Raisin The Sun And Willy Loman Compare And Contrast Essay
The striving for being rich and have a wealthy life has always been present in the American society.
Often living in a capitalistic society leads people to become greedy, and as a result many become too
materialistic. This may happen because of the challenge to pursue the American dream where most
of Americans are trying to fulfill it. Unfortunately, for most of people it is very difficult to acquire
this high status and to secure a spot in the upper–class society. Arthur Miller's, Death of a Salesman,
and Lorraine Hansberry's, A Raisin the Sun, are two plays that reveal two main characters: Willy
Loman and Walter Lee Young, characters that reflect typical features of the people who struggles to
achieve the American Dream. Although they may have common characteristics and share
similarities, they also have numerous issues and are very different, setting them apart from other
families and even each other. Therefore, the main focus of this paper will be to compare and put in
contrast these two great characters. In both plays, A Raisin the Sun and Death of a Salesman, the
father (Walter and Willy) is the main individual that holds his attention throughout the plays.
Because of their roles are often changing in the plays, Walter and Willy can be the protagonist and
the antagonist. That being said, they both have goals to possess their own business and to be their
own boss. They both strive to live wealthy. As Walter says "No...It was always money, Mama. We
just didn't know about it" (Hansberry). This reveals that Walter is more materialistic instead of
considering the feeling of his family.
Willy and Walter are very similar in many ways. For instance, they both are trying to be good
fathers. Walter's goal to get rich is influenced by his restless desire to offer to his family a better life:
"You tired, ain't you? Tired of everything. Me, the boy, the way we live–this beat–up hole–
everything. Ain't you?" (Discovering Literature, 1295). Meanwhile, the love that Willy has for his
sons is undeniable. Very often he would slip into the past before he drifted apart from his sons:

Poetic Voices : The Poetic Voice
The poetic voice can be scrutinized in all poems. This is because all poetic voices are given a certain
personality by the poet; they often incorporate all devices such as rhyme and figurative language
into the poem. Poems have different meanings but can have similarities between poetic voices; most
communicate through this voice as the voice links the reader to the poem. In Dylan Thomas's
villanelle Do Not Go Gentle... the poetic voice is repetitive, an important feature of the villanelle,
and wants everyone facing death to "rage against the dying of the light," meaning the poetic voice
doesn't want itself or anyone else to die without a fight. Similarly to Elizabeth Bishop's villanelle,
One Art, which visits the idea that "losing is an art not hard to master" using the same techniques as
Do Not Go Gentle. In Christian Rossetti's Remember although a sonnet, the techniques are
comparable, as the poetic voice is also very repetitive. Poets choose to be repetitive as what they
repeat will stress the point onto the reader, and if the reader doesn't take anything away from the
poem, the repetition would still stay in their mind after reading it because they will realise that it is
important. Not only are these poetic voices very repetitive but also focus on the idea of loss, in Do
Not Go Gentle... the poetic voice cannot face the loss of the four men in the poem, with each man

Active Voice Vs. Passive Voice
Why is it important to write in an "Active Voice vs. Passive Voice"?
I believe active voice is important because it allows us to write a lower grade level that our intended
audiences can understand and relate to. Active voice creates clear action it is less wordy, which is
direct to the reader or to the audience. Also, the writer uses a common and present language to
connect with the readers so they can better understand the written material. On the other hand,
passive voice is indirect and has weak verbs and may use present progressives which can be very
confusing to the reader. Passive voice is used when the writer does not know the audience. However,

The And Of The Voices
I sit down on the brown fluffed up couch and stare straight into the optics of my shrink, Frank,
thinking "how did I come here?" Not realizing I was saying it out loud. My shrink responds with
"how about you start from the beginning?", And that is exactly what I did. To be honest, I didn't
know where to start, should I start with the voices in my head or the imaginary people or being
inches away from killing my best friend and my sister; nonetheless, no option sounded good, so I
started as far back as I could remember. For as long as I could remember I have constantly had these
voices in my head: some are beneficial, some are bad and some are plain evil. Ace of the voices has
become something more, something real; for the sake of this ... Show more content on

Ever since I was 13 I have been travelling to various psychologists and other professionals, with
promises that they would avail. Each of them either abandoned my place due to it being
unacceptable for them to serve. Life has become in some senses more fragile to me. After killing
someone for the first time I realize life is like a solid bunch of weak strings, and all it needs is a
short slice to go them. Letting go of all of the strings at once is not a battle, only an act of ease and
delight in seeing them break up like a broken little puppet. X does not use a heavy weapon; he does
not employ any weapon besides a knife, only what he does use is fear. X intentionally creates a
sensation of fear so immense that by the time he is eaten up with them, they were already begging to
be shot down. He manages not just torture people. He changes them; they are no longer people, but
shells of what they were. They are gone and defeated, and they simply want to be freed from the
struggle known as X. Although living with the X is a constant fight, he has been my savior at times.
Every pain I had ever carried released through his activities, merely without the onus of knowing
just what actions relieved me of the annoyance. Every tear into a blade, and every insecurity into a
field. There are times part of me regrets the actions of the human race in my mind, but how can
these feelings linger when I

Britten Voice Range

  • 1. Britten Voice Range As we discussed earlier, the voice ranges that Britten chooses in this particular opera is very interesting. Britten expanded the voice range in all voices in order to allow the listener to have a better understanding in characters. As Godsalve said "...four special things stand out in setting voices; the assignment of voice classes to roles, the use of recitative and aria, textual changes, and the combination of two or more voices..."1 (156). Britten is very aware of all these changes and make sure that all of these applies to his composition. For an example, by using counter–tenor in the music, it allows Britten to illustrate the difference between human and fairy. Since Oberon is a representation of non–mortal, it's very interesting to see ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... It shows that in order to create power and difference between human and immortal, by using unique voice ranges allows Britten to explore the possibilities that no one else have ever tried. Furthermore, because Oberon's natural voice was higher, by using the counter–tenor it allows him to have a high voice sound quality which is best fit with the creature that have magical power. Furthermore, it also gives the audience an illusion that the characters have "magical" power and also abilities to create without any restrictions. On the other hand, because Tytania represent power and domination as a queen, by adding coloratura soprano to her roles it gives her power because as a singer, in order to have become a coloratura soprano, one must require to have high level of control over her demand, and have the confident to perform high virtuosity with an ease.

  • 3. Comparing Voice In Poetry And Psalms 6 Voice is a main force that drives along a piece of literature, it adapts to new paths and takes on new meanings based on the speaker, addressee, context, and many other factors. In "If You Want to Sing" from Islamic Mystical Poetry and Psalms 6, through similar basic structures, both writings deploy voice in order to describe suffering and affirmation of each respective speaker's position. However, through this fundamental parallel, the differences in the particularities of the voices employed are further highlighted. The similarity in the general voice and structure allow for higher scrutiny of the individual texts, accentuating the particular differences in emotionality and clarity that the respective voices carry. Though seemingly different on first look, the two writings follow a similar pattern and basic plot. In both, there is an encouragement ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In terms of voice, generally, both deploy a very declarative voice, announcing their struggles and sufferings. Towards the end, however, both move to a more affirmative voice that sustain their stable positions in triumphing against their enemies. Through this similar scheme and movement though different voices, a greater window is created to inspect more meticulously at the detailed differences between the two works in terms of voice. Although they both do deploy a declarative voice in the beginning, there are nuances that give the writings a different meaning and light. Specifically, Psalms 6 brings more emotionality to the way suffering is described. For example, Psalms 6 spends verse two, three, six, and seven just describing in detail how much anguish is felt. In verse six, crying is illustrated through two different ways, flooding the bed and drenching the couch, which constructs a tangible picture in the readers' minds. However, this may be due to the fact that there are simply more details and quantity of the text for the suffering as compared ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

An experience of voice auditory within history generally can be experienced through different movements that can be observed with regards to the figure of voice. The voice in terms of presence and sound helps in understanding the voice also in terms of techniques and manipulations. These terms presented are influenced within countless vocal techniques and manipulations with properties of time and spatial aspects. How it effects the voice through these aspects can also give the reality or even illusion of times and space, and how it navigates through it. Spoken, screaming, growling, vocal tremolo, vocal trill, ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Extended Vocal Technique can prove to be a very pure management of the voice, and depending on certain timbral techniques used can effect how we hear and perceive vocal sounds within certain spaces. An extended vocal method is in some ways a pure voice experience, which is beautiful and inimitable in itself. It pushes the limitations of what most would think about a standard singing method by including any or all of the sounds the human voice can make. Luciano Berio wrote 'Sequenza III (1966)' for his wife and also singing actress named Cathy Berberian. It was created as a unique challenge as it was a piece that could not be imitated exactly the same. In Sequenza III we experience the voice as the only expressive tool revealing a list of 15 techniques according to Berio. Some of his techniques include, "salvoes of laughter," "teeth–chattering," "tongue–trill against the upper lip," as well as "44 agogic markings" such as "far away," "dreamy," "ecstatic," "extremely intense" and "fading away." It's an exploration that give us a perpetual experience, by using such distinctive vocal techniques adjusting volumes tones and pitch so it increases and decreases the space covered. It gives an illusion to the listener in terms of echo, reverberation and the duration of particular vocal sounds. Author Janet Halfyard argues that Berio's studies must "serve the needs of the composition rather than merely to thrill the audience with ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Autistic children are also known to repeat sounds, words, or phrases. Depending on the child, extreme responses to smells, sounds, and lights can also be an issue ("What is Autism").

Families (Characteristics) "Stop thinking about normal... You don't have a big enough imagination for what your child can become," a quote by Johnny Seitz, autistic tightrope artist in the movie Loving Lamposts. It seems that Johnny Seitz has the right point of view about Autism. Many parents of a child with ASD may not be able to understand what is yet to come. A diagnosis can affect every family member in a different way. Much of the family's resources like money will be focused on providing help and interventions for the child. The earlier the interventions are started the least intensive the disability will be in the future.

But when you look at countries who actually have a socialist economic structure, you can see some similarities to the United States – but there are some really stark differences. Below, you will see some of the most socialistic nations in the world today: China Denmark Finland Netherlands Canada Sweden Norway Ireland New Zealand Belgium Despite popular myths, there is very little connection between economic performance and welfare expenditure. Many of the countries on this list are proof of that, such as Denmark and Finland. Even though both countries are ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The most realistic way to devise a list of Socialist countries is to base it upon which nations have substantial amounts of state–run industry, numerous govt. social programs, or other traits which make them actually Socialist. The following is a list of such countries with reasons for including them. Keep in mind that this information is as of 2006, some countries may eventually need to be added or removed from the list. Cuba: Cuba is one of the most Socialist nations, as it has a mostly state–run economy, universal healthcare, government–paid education at all levels, and a number of of social programs. It does not have a stock exchange. North Korea: The same is true of North Korea, which has an almost entirely state–run economy, as well as the same social programs mentioned for Cuba. Like Cuba, North Korea does not have a stock exchange. Venezuela: Economy has more private ownership, but the government social programs are quite extensive and the foreign policy is very left–wing. Cuban doctors and teachers have been brought to Venezuela to provide some medical and educational services. China: A substantial part of the economy is still state–run, although there are not as many social programs as there once were and universal healthcare has been eliminated.

Telling A False Statement On Voice Spectrum Research Plan: The rationale of this project is to test and experiment on the idea that your voice spectrum is affected when you lie, to gain further knowledge on how to prevent and detect liars. As human beings, most of us lie more than we want to think we do. Lying is considered a wrong doing and given time to think most liars recognize it, but some of the first concerns among humans is self–preservation, self–esteem, and dodging consequences or dangerous situations. People lie verbally and nonverbally through body language, facial expressions, etc. A person's voice can demonstrate aspects of their inner feelings which can help researchers in recognizing cues in someone's voice towards their emotional state and in making robots that have abilities to allow it to become constructive in our society, doing tasks like detecting deception. Understanding the basic concept of lying, how, and why people do it can assist engineers, and scientists to better protect our nation from deceit and to expand onto the idea of voice analysis. ...

If someone tells a false statement, then the spectrum of their voice will consist of a wide range of various voice bands when they lie compared to when they tell the truth because research states that our voice reveals aspects of how they feel, and when someone experiences cognitive dissonance or other troubling emotions from lying, it will be hard to control the sudden changes in their pitch as they react to questions (Speech Emotion Analysis).

  • 13. Theme of Voice in Their Eyes Were Watching God Essay Breaking Through In the novel "Their Eyes Were Watching God" written by Zora Neale Hurston, Janie the protagonist is seen by critics as having no voice. For all women silence knows no boundaries of race or culture, and Janie is no exception.

Janie's actions are stronger than words, Janie's trial at the end of the novel, proves, Janie's silence to be more powerful than articulation. Hurston uses the narrative consciousness in Their Eyes, to characterize those who are silent and lack their own voice, by doing this Hurston gives depth, to those whose voices, are heard. Throughout the entire novel, the development of the male voice seems to parallel the development of Janie's. The men in Janie's life have voices, and it is by her relationships with these men, that Janie's voice gets stronger. Janie becomes more self confident with each relationship she endures. Hurston, by using the consciousness narrative, is actually speaking for Janie; the narrator and Janie are like one. This might be the reason that Hurston gives little voice to Janie's character. Janie is not silenced in the novel, she is expressed through the narrative. Which if the reader does not close read, the reader will not comprehend this aspect of Hurston's novel.

Over the years the Internet has developed as a very cheap medium that has been used to send electronic mails and files across the globe. VoIP extends this concept and provides the facility to send voice data between people using the IP framework. Since the Internet is a cheap medium, enabling voice services through it will effectively cut costs that are normally encountered in making calls through normal telephone lines. This would mean that people across the world can talk to each other at a fraction of the cost that they could be spending when they use normal telephone lines. This is exactly what makes ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... How VoIP functions At the basic level, VoIP functions much like the common Internet services that are available today. Voice data is received at one end of the IP network and is compressed, digitized, and broken down into data packets with unique serial numbers. A universal lookup table or an IP reference table helps the server at the call originating end to find out the IP of the receiver to whom the call is placed. Once the IP is resolved, data is sent to the destination IP much in the same fashion that emails and web data is transferred across the network. The data packets that are received at the destination end is collected, arranged according to sequence numbers, and converted back to analog signals so that the receiver can hear the voice. VoIP is possible between two computers, between two telephones that are connected to a network or even between a computer and a telephone. This means that a person with a PC can originate a call to a landline or vice versa [Jain, 2004] The advantages of VoIP • Voice and Data Integration VoIP is a definite step towards integration of voice and data; a need that has been increasingly researched since the last few decades.

We may express ourselves through music, written and oral interpretation, our political affiliation, and lastly, our voice. Though we may not realize it, we are under the constant influence of the power of voice. Whenever we read an article, type an essay, or even think, we are likely to employ the use of voice inside our minds. It could be our own, a friend, a favorite actor 's voice, or for some people, all of them combined. Another factor we typically associate to a voice is an image. While subtle, image plays an amazingly crucial role in how we are to appear to our audience. No one would want to pay for expensive tickets to see an artist live with otherwise lackluster cadence. Individuals also, probably, might not vote for a candidate if they were to use their voice to spread oppressive, immoral, or even awkward and unprofessional values; it would affect their public image. In this essay, we will analyze how our legitimacy (public image; authority) effect how our voices, and ideas, are heard. In all four cited monologues, each of the narrators has some pre–conceived notion of how they want to be viewed and heard among their audience. In "The Candidate", Bill Peduto stresses the importance of his voice and all the variables that play into how he utilizes it.

Additionally, VoIP services include features such as name and number caller ID, call forwarding, call blocking, and voice mail as standard features. Whereas, traditional phone companies typically charge premiums for these features.

But as the hormones come into play, they cause the male larynx to become larger and the vocal folds lengthen and thicken. Not only are there internal factors that play a role in the voice changing there are also physical factors, depending on the height and weight of an individual that could affect the tone, pitch and frequency. The purpose of this assignment was to better understand these differences. As defined in our class manual, voice onset time (VOT) refers to the time difference between a voiced stop closure and a voiceless stop. It is determined by the articulatory blockage at the beginning of vocal fold vibration for the following vowel. Among the various factors of VOT variations include; phonetic context, place of articulation, speech tempo, and speakers' gender. For voiceless stops, women display longer VOT than men. For voiced stops however, the results are rather mixed. Which makes sense if you look at the characteristics of mine and Marks h–d words, you will notice there are multiple differences within our tokens regarding formant frequencies. However we show similarities with our durations. So I wondered at first if this had anything to do with the tokens being the same word, or if it was the vowel production.

Whistle: The physiology of the whistle register is the most poorly understood of the vocal registers. It is known that when producing pitches in this register vibration occurs only in some anterior portion of the vocal folds. This shorter vibrating length naturally allows for easier production of high pitches. The physiological process that causes this is not currently known. Though the whistle register is most commonly used to produce pitches above E6, it can be used to produce lower pitches. By the physiological definition just detailed, it is a configuration of the vocal folds and not a range of pitches. There is, however, no universally agreed upon scheme for classifying vocal registers, so it is common to see other definitions. See the article on vocal registration for a discussion. [edit] In the European classical music, the whistle register is only rarely called for. When it is, it is exclusively used by coloratura sopranos to produce pitches above C6. Probably the most well– known example of the whistle register in European classical music is the aria "Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen" from the opera Die Zauberflöte; it calls for several pitches above C6, up to F6. In the popular music of the West, the whistle register is used more often than in its classical music. It is used with more variety and to produce much higher

  • 39. The History of Music: The Human Voice Singing – producing musical sounds with the voice, and augments regular speech by the use of both tonality and rhythm. One who sings is called a vocalist. Singers perform music such as arias, recitatives and songs these can be sung with or without accompaniment by musical instruments. Air comes out of the lungs and goes through the trachea then into the larynx this air makes the vocal folds vibrate. When the vocal folds vibrate air is trapped and then released. Each release sends a bit air into the pharynx each puff of air is the beginning of a sound. The sound wave is enhanced as it moves through the pharynx by the time it leaves the mouth it sounds like a voice. Singing is a well–defined technique that depends on the use of the lungs, which act as an air supply on the larynx. The larynx is the voice box. The vocal folds (also called vocal cords) are part of the larynx which creates the sound of the voice on the chest and head cavities, which amplify on the tongue and together with the palate, teeth, and lips create vowels on the amplified sound. When breathing, air is inhaled with the diaphragm while exhalation occurs without any effort. The pitch is altered with the vocal cords. The shape of the chest and neck the positioning of the tongue, and the tightness of muscles can change the pitch, volume and timbre of the sound produced. People can manipulate their voices in different ways to make different sounds. These different kinds of larynx techniques/functions ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

However, there are aspects of my voice that I notice and dislike; my voice breaks between my lower and middle register noticeably and gets tired quickly.

Vocal cords normally move back and forth to make sounds when air passes through the voice box (larynx). If you have a hyperfunctional voice disorder, the area of the brain that controls vocal cord movement does not send the right signals. This causes the vocal cords to spasm. Hyperfunctional voice disorders might also be referred to as muscle tension dysphonia. Sometimes the spasms force the vocal cords open when they should be closed. This makes you lose your voice. Sometimes the spasms cause the vocal cords to close too tightly. This makes your voice sound ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... DIAGNOSIS You may be diagnosed with a hyperfunctional voice disorder based on: Your symptoms. Your medical history. A physical exam to check your larynx and evaluate your speech. Procedures that are done to: ○ Examine your throat with a scope that has a tiny camera on the end (laryngoscope). The scope projects images onto a monitor (direct laryngoscopy). ○ Examine the movement of your vocal cords in the reflection of a mirror (indirect laryngoscopy). ○ Check the movement of your vocal cords in slow motion, using a special flickering light (laryngeal stroboscopy). ○ Test the electrical activity of your larynx muscles (electromyography or EMG). You may also see a health care provider who specializes in conditions of the ear, nose, and throat (otolaryngologist or ENT specialist) or conditions of the nervous system (neurologist). TREATMENT There is no cure for this condition. The goal of treatment is to relieve symptoms and improve the quality of your voice.

And up to date steps to accommodate public–policy goals to IP–voice services haven't mainly addressed the massive queries of regulative classification.

  • 51. Sexual Dimorphism in Human Voice: Female Mate Choice and... As in other sexually reproducing anisogamous species, humans have sexually dimorphic traits of both morphological and behavioural kinds. Such traits are said to have evolved through sexual selection, the limiting force allowing individuals to out–reproduce others. At the level of gametes, we expect asymmetries in reproductive effort and in reproductive potential, which yields sexual dimorphism. According to Triversian Parental Investment Theory (PIT), the sex of a species who provides higher post–zygotic investment, typically the female, would be more selective in mates, such that the sex who invests less in a species, typically the male, would require traits seen as attractive in order to have selective advantage. Moreover, as females serve as the limiting resource for reproduction, PIT predicts that males are expected to have higher variance in reproductive success (RS) than females, so intrasexual selection would operate more strongly in males, whose aggressive competition for mate access would yield differences in fitness maximising strategies, whether through somatic or behavioural traits. Thus, sexual selection, is the primary explanation for sex differences within a Darwinian framework. Vocal characteristics in men and women are considered sexually dimorphic traits. Puts, Jones and DeBruine (2012) cited that women's average voice pitch post–puberty is much higher than men's, that men speak in a more monotone voice, and that men's vocal tracts and vocal folds are ...

Active Voice Voice: In simple words, Voice (in other words (but rarely said) is also called, diathesis) is a term that describes the relation between an action (verb) taken by the subject, the subject (the one who performs the action) and the object (the thing being acted upon). Active Voice: Active voice is most commonly used verb. Active voice is where; the subject is the one who performs an action (verb), while object is the thing being acted upon. When the subject performs an action, the verb is in Active voice. For example: The mouse ate the cheese. Here, the mouse is the subject, ate is the action (verb) and cheese is the object.

When the subject is the target for an action, then the verb is in Passive voice. For example: The cheese was eaten by the mouse. Here, the cheese is the subject, eaten is the passive verb and mouse is the object. Since the subject is the one being suspected for the action, we say that the verb is in the passive voice.

Voice Of Voice Over Internet Protocol Abstract When Voice over Internet Protocol was being introduced, it was perfectly engineered to work using the existing model and infrastructure without bearing huge cost. VoIP uses Internet Protocol to connect, transmit and terminate the calls. Most of the industry is using VoIP services to connect their offices locally, in different cities and in different countries. VoIP enables User/client to place a telephonic call to their offices/friends/families. This paper will focus on how VoIP works and what are the security concerns. Also the industry's concern about Quality of Service (QoS) and will discuss about threats in general. Introduction IP is used for data communication and for "Voice Dialogue" exchanged between two parties, is also carried on the same data network. Data network could be a private network (Local offices within a city or many cities in the same country/region and also using IPLC's to connect other countries/continents) or on Internet by creating Hard/soft VPN tunneling in between the offices. In general discuss it is considered on the Internet only but it being used by creating point to point connect using Wireless or only data connectivity between two office. Using Internet to transmit VoIP traffic is very inexpensive as compared to Local data connectivity or using your IPLC. Phone calls are placed using VoIP over any kind of data connectivity. The simplest way of VoIP communication is, when both the parties can receive and make calls using internet. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 58. The Debilitating Experience of Hearing Voices in One's Head Hearing voices is considered to be a defining symptom of having a mental illness. The experience of these voices can often be categorised as a debilitating condition that can cause an extreme impact on daily life by weakening or disrupting contact with reality (Kalhovde, Elstad and Talseth 2013). However, according to the Mental Health Foundation (N.D) this is not always the case as many people hear voices but never find them to be a problem or feel as if they need to seek help from mental health services. In order for this assignment to be written, a visualisation was produced as part of the process. The idea behind this was to create a strong focus on one particular aspect of a mental health issue which would then allow a question ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Romme and Escher (1989) focused particularly on the idea of hearing voices and spent a lot of time gathering research around this subject. They indicated that most people who heard voices had suggested that it had begun quite suddenly, yet it became a moment that they remembered well because of that reason. Many believed that their voice hearing had begun because of a traumatic or emotional event, such as an accident, divorce or death or other events such as illness, being in love, moving or pregnancy. These types of reasons are things that people may not experience everyday but could be faced with at some point during their life time, suggesting that hearing voices is somewhat a common occurrence and not as unusual as what society perceive it to be. Various different experiments have taken place in order to shed some light on this controversial topic and address coping mechanisms that are used in order for people to manage their voice hearing effectively. An attempt was also made to highlight the differences between those who are mentally ill and are familiar with hearing voices and those who have had no diagnosis of mental illness, yet still experience similar hallucinations. Firstly, Romme and Escher (1989 cited in Kalhovde, Elstad and Talseth 2013) "introduced the perspective that hearing voices is a reaction to problems in life and need not be a symptom of a mental disorder".

These were the first words that were spoken over the phone back on March 10 1876. If you combine this invention with the same invention of the first computer that was completed nearly 70 years later in 1946, you would then be able to access VoIP. VoIP is also known as voice over internet protocol. VoIP is in essence the ability to talk with ones voice via computer to computer.

There was better clarity but there were still some bugs due to static and difficulty making connections. In the beginning VoIP traffic represented rather less than 1% of voice traffic. In 1998 three IP switch manufacturers introduced equipment capable of switching (intertangent, 2005). With these implementations by the year 2000 the voice traffic had risen only two more percent to 3%. This is not a huge leap but there are many advances that are still being made and the numbers will continue to grow. The real breakthrough occurred when such systems like Cisco Systems and Nortel started producing VoIP equipment that was capable of switching (Viopreview, 2005). With the introduction of switching it was no longer the CPU's responsibility to switch the voice packets. With the introduction of the new switching this made it to where the computer did not require specific hardware to be able to use VoIP. When the switches were introduced this made the hardware cheaper and allowed larger companies to be able to implement their calls via the internet. VoIP has not really caught on with the general public, but has been primarily used by large corporations. The general public does not really search out things such as this because they sometimes become complacent in their day to day life. On the other hand, large companies will ...

Significance And Innovation Of The Proposed Research Significance and innovation of the proposed research The use and comprehension of the passive sentence structure is the subject of much debate in the field of psycholinguistics. There have been many studies conducted addressing the issue of why passive sentence structures are so underused as compared to active sentence structures in children. Several studies have tried to show that passive sentence structures can actually be elicited through structural priming, or more generally being more exposed to that specific type of sentence. Although plenty of research as been conducted examining the P600 response in reference to various types of syntactical anomalies, I could not find one study that was specifically focused on the priming of passive sentence structures, even though it is said that the P600 should respond to this specific sentence structure. Therefore, the proposed study will contribute to the field of psycholinguistics by examining the P600 response of children using the structural priming paradigm. Based on the results of the study, the study may also be able to determine if the P600 response could serve as an adequate neural marker for the effectiveness of passive voice structural priming. Study design The proposed study will make use of the structural priming paradigm used in previous studies (Gámez & Shimpi, 2015; Vasilyeva, Waterfall, Gámez, Gómez, Bowers, & Shimpi, 2010), as well as the measurement of event–related potentials.

  • 66. Personal Narrative-Grounded In My Voice At the start of the semester I had become more aware and grounded in my voice. In my everyday life, I would notice if I was holding my breath. The reason for this was because over the summer I had to stand–up to one of my shut–up judges, my dad. The incident was extremely emotional, and I coped with it through the use of my actor training; instead of checking out and holding tension, I chose to breathe deeply and stay grounded. This allowed me to speak up even when I was told to shut–up. This awareness of breath was developed through necessity rather than choice. I had to be strong. My strength didn't only come from being grounded in my breath, but it also came using breathe to stay present in the room. The use of breath also allowed me to go into my body and release the build–up of emotions. As a result of these experiences, my voice was able to drop more consistently to my lower resonator rather than my typical chest voice. The new drop in my voice had its own challenges as well. One, of course, was to avoid reverting into old habits. When it comes to voice work, effort should be applied every day. Just because I was breathing deep one day, doesn't mean I am allowed to stop the next day. Throughout this whole semester, I've had to continuously be aware of my voice and breath.

There have been countless ways and instances when social history has exposed the histories of ancient, medieval, as well as early modern peoples that had previously not been investigated. Many great individuals throughout history, with their writings have given the people of their time a great voice. While these writings and actions have given these individuals a voice, these voices continue with the history of their people throughout their time as well as after their time. The "Loyalist Teaching", is an ancient Egyptian set of texts with a series of instructions, in the text it is set as a father speaking to his children. In the texts, it gives details about loyalty, more importantly, obedience and loyalty to the pharaoh as well as how members of society must be respectful to the citizens and continue to participate in their civic duty. In the texts, it is said, "The king is Sustenance; his speech is Plenty. The man he makes is someone who always exist. He is the heir of every god, the protector of his creators. They strike his opponents for him." (Unknown 27) While in this text, it does not seem to be giving a direct voice to those who do not have one, it gives a clear picture of how individuals in that respective society were expected to praise their pharaoh, or they in return, they would ultimately die. These teachings help historians to gain a clear picture of how this society ran ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 70. A Raisin The Sun And Willy Loman Compare And Contrast Essay The striving for being rich and have a wealthy life has always been present in the American society. Often living in a capitalistic society leads people to become greedy, and as a result many become too materialistic. This may happen because of the challenge to pursue the American dream where most of Americans are trying to fulfill it. Unfortunately, for most of people it is very difficult to acquire this high status and to secure a spot in the upper–class society. Arthur Miller's, Death of a Salesman, and Lorraine Hansberry's, A Raisin the Sun, are two plays that reveal two main characters: Willy Loman and Walter Lee Young, characters that reflect typical features of the people who struggles to achieve the American Dream. Although they may have common characteristics and share similarities, they also have numerous issues and are very different, setting them apart from other families and even each other. Therefore, the main focus of this paper will be to compare and put in contrast these two great characters. In both plays, A Raisin the Sun and Death of a Salesman, the father (Walter and Willy) is the main individual that holds his attention throughout the plays. Because of their roles are often changing in the plays, Walter and Willy can be the protagonist and the antagonist. That being said, they both have goals to possess their own business and to be their own boss. They both strive to live wealthy. As Walter says "No...It was always money, Mama. We just didn't know about it" (Hansberry). This reveals that Walter is more materialistic instead of considering the feeling of his family. Willy and Walter are very similar in many ways. For instance, they both are trying to be good fathers. Walter's goal to get rich is influenced by his restless desire to offer to his family a better life: "You tired, ain't you? Tired of everything. Me, the boy, the way we live–this beat–up hole– everything. Ain't you?" (Discovering Literature, 1295). Meanwhile, the love that Willy has for his sons is undeniable. Very often he would slip into the past before he drifted apart from his sons: "Remarkable. Remember those days? The way Biff used to simonize that car?

My voice is comfortable hitting any low notes making it great for operatic pieces, pieces that require a strong voice to get an emotion across, or generally any theatric role that requires the large, stoic kind of character. Past instructors have also said I have a natural talent to sing along without getting caught up in the melody of other instruments. My understanding is that beginners tend to sing at the same tone as of the instruments in the accompaniment when they should be singing at a different key, but my previous teachers and peers have said they've never seen me have this issue. Hearing their praise made me happy, but I would like to expand my vocal range so I could hit higher notes perhaps fitting an alto or maybe a soprano and give them something even more ...

While I appreciate classical and opera music, it has unfortunately cast me as the villain more times than naught during auditions. I want to improve my ability to sing at higher tones for a better chance to perhaps be cast as the protagonist once in a while as opposed to the antagonist in musicals. I also hope to find ways to improve my fluidity of lyrics while singing. Sometimes when I hit certain notes for certain words the word comes out awkward compared to the rest of the song, for example imagine a grown man trying to sing a love song for the woman of his dreams but when he sings "girl" it sounds like he hits puberty again and his voice cracks. It was a role from a past show but it was still pretty embarrassing to stand on stage and let that happen in front of a test audience two weeks from the first show.

These tears are often due to the emotional impact a song has on a person, but in some cases, these tears are the body's response to a terrible, uncomfortable sound– the sound of somebody singing terribly. Lack of correct posture, good tone, proper breathing and sufficient support is to blame in this situation. However, many fail to understand the need for the in–depth overview of how to sing properly, or for some reason do not think that it applies to them.

  • 76. Poetic Voices : The Poetic Voice The poetic voice can be scrutinized in all poems. This is because all poetic voices are given a certain personality by the poet; they often incorporate all devices such as rhyme and figurative language into the poem. Poems have different meanings but can have similarities between poetic voices; most communicate through this voice as the voice links the reader to the poem. In Dylan Thomas's villanelle Do Not Go Gentle... the poetic voice is repetitive, an important feature of the villanelle, and wants everyone facing death to "rage against the dying of the light," meaning the poetic voice doesn't want itself or anyone else to die without a fight. Similarly to Elizabeth Bishop's villanelle, One Art, which visits the idea that "losing is an art not hard to master" using the same techniques as Do Not Go Gentle. In Christian Rossetti's Remember although a sonnet, the techniques are comparable, as the poetic voice is also very repetitive. Poets choose to be repetitive as what they repeat will stress the point onto the reader, and if the reader doesn't take anything away from the poem, the repetition would still stay in their mind after reading it because they will realise that it is important. Not only are these poetic voices very repetitive but also focus on the idea of loss, in Do Not Go Gentle... the poetic voice cannot face the loss of the four men in the poem, with each man relating to Thomas' father and, with each going to die, the poetic voice reiterates to the men ...

I believe active voice is important because it allows us to write a lower grade level that our intended audiences can understand and relate to. Active voice creates clear action it is less wordy, which is direct to the reader or to the audience. Also, the writer uses a common and present language to connect with the readers so they can better understand the written material. On the other hand, passive voice is indirect and has weak verbs and may use present progressives which can be very confusing to the reader.
