💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐶🗣️ The voice people use with #pets mirrors baby talk, with raised sing-song tones signaling warmth and attention.
But pet talk drops the teaching component, since it mostly aims at connection rather than #language #learning. #Research shows #babies get clearer #speech and even hyper-articulated vowels, #parrots get slight language coaching, and #dogs and #horses mainly respond to the affectionate tone, which strengthens social bonding.

I WANT A STAR TREK COMPUTER 💎
I believe the real future of computing is much simpler than people make it sound.
I don’t want another clever app. I don’t want more menus, keyboards, mice, windows, modes, buttons, opening this and closing that.
I want a Star Trek computer. Captain Kirk had the right idea.
I want to sit down and say, “This is what I want you to do,” and have the technology understand whether that means speaking, writing, finding, organizing, showing me something, or helping me think something through.
Voice, text, images, tools, all of it should eventually become one conversation.
And this matters particularly for people with disabilities like me, older people like me, and anyone who doesn’t fit the imagined “standard user”. Like me!
Technology should adapt to the particular human being in front of it, not require the human to adapt to the machine.
That, to me, is where AI gets genuinely interesting: when the technology disappears into the background and we can get on with living our Star Trek lives.

#IDEA: #Chat anonymously using voice masks oinline?
So #voice #chat + #filters / #masks that anonymise #voice but don't make it too mechanical and #mask it enough so predators can't collect real voices? (Can still be pleasurable to listen).
What do you think?
For example = #Jitsi + #voicemask to talk (as a priority instead of text only) for those that want.
1/ Do you know of this #software #combination?
2/ Is it a good method to speak faster and more openly with a bit of voice protection?

#Question = When will politics move beyond xyz now?
#Answer = When more people answer each other and increase responsibility:
(online, to #trust more eventually offline)
1/ Humans develop Humans.
2/ Voice #chat + anonymising #filter helps mask speakers from predators but still sounds human enough (not machine-like).
Without humans-teaching-humans the experience of #life, #knowledge & #expertise is incomplete.
#Human #voice helps learn / teach ?
Not just Web, Text, Pics? -

A question for trans people (of all genders) on Fedi: whether you worked on your own or with a voice coach, when you were exploring how to perform gender with your voice, what were the theory, techniques and exercises that helped you?

@renardboy ...Carefully for example = #voice #chat + #filters that anonymise voice but don't make it too mechanical.
The win I see (above all wins) is that we can speak freely and not hide / stagnate to the level of being coralled like fish in a corner (if we don't fight out of the corne)
e.g. #Jitsi + voice 'mask' comms t help talk out our mindset (as priority more than just 'working to live #slavery") I think is a good plan.
What do you think (my main question?)
Talking almost anonymously?

@canderson #Quote + comment after:
"...like Joan Westenberg said, in the end it comes down to two things:
keep optimizing for reach, or start optimizing for resonance."
#Mastodon could do this:
1/ more personally #cultivate from it's own #team.2/ #Add voice messages / #WebRTC / #Jitsi live voice rooms (with slightly anonymizing voice mask option to deter recording) BUT still allow the #human #contact and practices to balance out our #principles & practices in 2-way #voice #conversations.

Nel nostro live eseguiremo alcuni pezzi interpretati da Ella Fitzgerald e racconteremo qualche aneddoto della sua vita....
Ad Ella (La regina dello "scat") durante un concerto cadde il foglio con il testo di una canzone. Invece di fermarsi, iniziò a improvvisare con sillabe senza senso, trasformando l'imprevisto in uno spettacolo memorabile.
Quell'arte dell'improvvisazione, chiamata scat singing, divenne il suo marchio di fabbrica. 🥰

Only 2 Hands – A guided meditation as a poem
I only have two hands.
The world is beyond my control.
The world has always been beyond my control.
The world will always be beyond my control.
The world does not depend on me.
Is okay and natural that the world is beyond my control.
There was a time when I was not in the world, there
will be a time again when I am not in the world.
The world does not depend on Me,
and that is a wonderful thing.
I only have two hands,I only have two hands,
but I have two hands.
This is the most amazing gift.
I am alive and I am aware
with these hands, I can make the world kinder, healthier and livelier.
With these hands, I can make the world harsher, angry, violent,
but the world goes on with or without me.I only have one voice,
but I have a voice,
and that is the most Amazing thing.
I am awake and I am alert.
With this voice,
I can make the world wise fascinating and beautiful.
With this voice, I can make the world confusing or true,
false or clear,
a travesty or an equity.
But the world goes on With or without me.I only have one lifetime in this form,
this form with two feet,
this form with two hands,
this form with one voice,
this form with this mind,
the moss goes on without me.
The ants go on without me.
The trees go on without me.
The sun burns on without me.I cannot direct the affairs of the world.
I cannot direct the turning of the earth.
I cannot direct the tides of the oceans.
I cannot scrap and recreate my life circumstance,
but I can steer my life’s flow.
The affairs of the world are beyond my control, and always will be.
But I can mold the process of my living experience
When I am aware of how I shape my living experience, I create better results.I cannot direct the affairs of the world,
just as I cannot direct the weaving of every spider’s web,
but participating with others in co creation.
I can still cultivate change in the natural world.
I can still cultivate change in the human world.
I have the realization that the natural world is real and fundamental.
I have the realization that the human world cannot be separated from the natural world.
I have the realization that the human world is an organic flowering of the natural world.I have the realization also that the natural world goes on without the human world,
just as the human world goes on without me.
The world is not conditioned on people,
just as it is not conditioned on my existence.
I am alive, awake, aware and alert.
I have the realization that this life is a precious gift.
I resolve and aspire to appreciate this gift and spend it wisely.The final bell is In 60 seconds.
Thank you for listening to only two hands, a meditation by Cooper Dozier.[ Intro I removed so it reads like a poem:
Only two hands. By Cooper Dozier. A bell will ring before each speaking part. This meditation is 23 minutes long. The silences in between speaking parts are about 90 to 100 seconds long. There is no requirement to follow the meditation as presented. Feel free to take any path that appears to you. I hope we all have a fruitful exploration. Settle in. The first bell will ring in 30 seconds. Loosen up and stretch your joints if you like. Try to take a comfortable posture which you can hold. Should you encounter mental or emotional difficulties? Feel free to open your eyes. Take a break or stop if needed. ]

How long must we wait for #legislation that prohibits using a person’s #image, #voice, or #identity without their #consent, affirming identity as an inviolable #right for all?
