Reasonably Sound

Support RS at patreon.com/reasonablysound THIS WEEK IT’S ALL ABOUT SCREAMS (AAAAA!!!!) Horror and fear screams. It’s not just talking with some extra juice. There is much, much more at work. Physically and psychologically, a scream is a unique thing in human sound production. Mike explores the what and how, and that they aren’t like shouts or yells. Plus a deep dive into what they mean. And how they function in film. Especially as delivered by women. -- SOURCES -- The Hard Work of Screaming: Physical Exertion and Affective Labor Among Mexico City’s Punk Vocalists Author(s): Kelley Tatro Source: Ethnomusicology, Vol. 58, No. 3 (Fall 2014), pp. 431-453 ‘The scream’: Meanings and excesses in early childhood settings Rachel Rosen Childhood 2015, Vol. 22(1) 39–52 Phenomenology of the Scream Author(s): Peter Schwenger Source: Critical Inquiry, Vol. 40, No. 2 (Winter 2014), pp. 382-395 Nonlinear analysis of irregular animal vocalizations Isao Tokudaa, et al J.
