Description
How we speak and sing shapes who we are. A person's voice is closely tied to their identity, influencing how others perceive them. This book explores the full range of human voice, from vocal anatomy to technology that enables imitation and manipulation.
Trevor Cox examines the role of voice in our lives, including its use in singing and speaking. He talks to experts in various fields, such as vocal coaches and computer scientists, who are developing artificial intelligence that replicates the human voice. From the Neanderthals to the digital age, this book takes a fascinating journey through the evolution of human communication.
Discover how technology is transforming our relationship with the human voice and what it means for our future interactions.
