	Human voice - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Humans have vocal folds which can loosen or tighten or change their thickness and over which breath can be transferred at varying pressures.
		Head voice is different from falsetto in that it is possible to connect it to the chest voice.
		The mix voice, also known as the "blend," is a term used in the Speech Level Singing method to describe the range of notes which marks a combination of notes in the chest and head registers.

	DR V3.1: OBOE AND THE HUMAN VOICE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		In the case of the human voice, the resonators are the various throat, mouth and head cavities, while for the oboe the resonator is the hollow body of the instrument.
		As the quality of the human voice can be greatly affected by the degree of flexibility and elasticity of the vocal folds, so can the quality of the oboe tone be considerably influenced by the quality, density and various other characteristics of the cane from which the reed is made.
		There is another element in common to both sounds, the human voice and the oboe tone, which is possibly the most vital one.: the exhaled air which provides the energy to power the sound generators or to form and to carry the sound.

	CFV - How the Larynx (Voice Box) Works (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		If you love opera, or if you admire the voices of pop singers such as Celine Dion or Barbra Streisand, you may have wondered how it is these marvelous singers are able to create such beautiful music with this instrument we call the human voice.
		The larynx is a critical organ of human speech and singing, and it serves important biological functions as well.
		One unfortunate consequence of human evolution is the fact that the food we eat and the air we breathe share part of the pharynx, and if a person tries to speak while swallowing food, the food can enter the larynx and cause the person to choke.

	Duplicating the Human Voice
		The the human voice has a range of approximately 100 Hz to 5,000 Hz (5 kHz), but through experimentation, the phone company discovered that the recognizeable frequencies are between 100 hz and 3,300 Hz.
		In order to reproduce the human voice using digital information, you first have to sample the incoming voice information that is transmitted as an analog electrical signal on the subscriber's local loop.
		By sampling the voice line 8,000 times per second (twice the maximum rate expected on the voice line), the phone company is able to re-create a very life-like copy of the human voice without wasting too much bandwidth.

	Roy Sugarman reviews The Birth of Pleasure: A New Map of Love by Carol Gilligan
		Faludi, in her last work, “Stiffed” spoke for male voices that couldn’t be heard, there is no ‘Masculinist’ movement, there is no vehicle for the male voice in patriarchy, for years thought to stifle female development in the service of a male-value dominated world.
		In this work, Gilligan traces the human voice as life in a world dominated by patriarchal values stifles it in a form of dissociation, robbing girls of their voice.
		The symptoms of this loss of ‘voice’ are similar to dissociation, living life ‘as if’, a feeling of alienation, from which only the sensation of pleasure allows for associative relationship with ourselves, a reuniting of cognition and emotions.

	New study explores how human voice works
		BOWLING GREEN, O.--Although the human voice is understood in the most basic of terms, the intricate workings of the larynx and vocal folds--the primary parts used in the making of sound--remain a mystery.
		The models will be used to explore the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic properties of voice, measuring things such as airflows, air pressures, and sound, and how those measures change when the shape of the larynx changes.
		But claiming to understand the intricate workings of the human voice from this overall perspective is like claiming to understand the workings of the internal combustion engine because you learned to pump your own gas at a service station.

		When the sound is continuous (like the human voice), it's because there's some vibration that moves, or disturbs, the air molecules.
		In the case of the human voice, it's the vocal folds that are vibrating.
		In the case of the voice, the amplitude of the vibration of vocal folds may determine the intensity of the sound wave, but many other factors influence our perception of the voice's loudness.
