![]() (YouTube)Ĭhristina Kang, an opera singer and Mayo Clinic voice therapist in Arizona, explained that the exercises "rebalance and recoordinate the vocal mechanism" - the 13 muscles that work with the breath to give your voice resonance. Watch voice teacher Tom Burke demonstrate how to blow bubbles to relieve a tired voice. The National Center for Speech and Voice says the method has "roots in Northern Europe and has been used for several hundred years." Its popularizer, Ingo Titze - a vocal scientist and executive director of the center at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City - has published academic papers on the approach.Īpparently, the straw technique can not only give you a voice that's stronger and more difficult to lose, but it can also relieve a tired voice. Turns out, it seems everyone in the voice community knows about the magical straw technique - to "reset and free the voice" and "stretch and unpress" your vocal cords and folds. Orbelo suggested the "straw technique" - strengthening your vocal cords by humming through a straw or blowing into one with a liquid ("like when you're a kid and you blow bubbles in chocolate milk"). Ingo Titze, a vocal scientist and executive director of the National Center for Voice and Speech at the University of Utah, demonstrates the straw technique. It's possible to train yourself to become more of the latter. People who talk from deep in their chests (like me) tend to put more strain on their vocal cords than people who talk from higher up, closer to the front of the face. "Through training, people can learn to have a forward resonance, which tends to project well," she said. "There may be a genetic predisposition, habits we form growing up."īut there was good news: The unlucky lottery of birth didn't mean I was stuck with a weak voice. "We don’t know why some people are more susceptible to voice problems compared to others," Orbelo explained. (Think of this as a repetitive motion injury.) "Usually the throaty, chesty, deeper voices are the ones that tend to get more into trouble," she said.Īssuming I have a healthy larynx, when I lose my voice it means I've strained my vocal cords from too much use, causing them to swell up so they can't vibrate as easily to get out sound. Over the phone, she almost immediately diagnosed me as a voice loser. To learn more, I called Diana Orbelo, a speech-language pathologist at the Mayo Clinic who helps people with voice problems. ![]() A loud party or long day of talking can leave me sounding like Tom Waits. ![]() I’ve always had a raspy voice that easily burns out. ![]()

Book II begins with the debate among the " Stygian Council" in the council-chamber of Pandæmonium. ![]() It was designed by the architect Mulciber, who had been the designer of palaces in Heaven before his fall. John Milton invented the name for the capital of Hell, "the High Capital, of Satan and his Peers," built by the fallen angels at the suggestion of Mammon at the end of Book I of Paradise Lost (1667). Pandæmonium thus roughly translates as "All Demons"-but can also be interpreted as Pandemoneios (Παν-δαιμον-ειον), or 'all-demon-place'. The name stems from the Greek pan (παν), meaning 'all' or 'every', and daimónion (δαιμόνιον), a diminutive form meaning 'little spirit', 'little angel', or, as Christians interpreted it, 'little daemon', and later, ' demon'.

My son who used the Adobe Suite in his business for years switched to Affinity recently. Part of the technological maturing process I think we see at Microsoft and in hardware at Intel. (pun intended) But I also am aware that Adobe has had its troubles lately and seems to be caught in the cycle of overly complex development to hang on to their income stream. I can well understand that highly skilled PS people won't settle for anything less - I would be the same if I had had an affinity for for it. So I have settled for Affinity Photo and the obviously lesser Pixelmator for my photos. In contrast, Corel Draw, an early vector graphics program, was remarkably easy for me to learn. I'm generally good with learning computer programs, but I always found PS opaque. I'm an old film photographer who never could get into PS.
