trans voice study notes
Morning voice practice went well ^____^
Learned a *lot* about pitch. Blows my mind that successive piano notes are "just" 49 Hz multiplied by the twelfth root of 2 raised to the power of N, where N is the Nth note after the first pitch.
Studied some voice actors I really like, also. Very bummed that some of the voices I really love are outside of my pitch range for chest voice. I think I had this assumption that my voice could theoretically do whatever other humans' voices could do.
*But*! I found a voice actor whose pitch is within my range, and I'm super duper excited to study their voice more!
@solene I used to use Kate
@vanillacherry aw thank you Lilynth! π
Yay, I wrote an article. ^___^
It's about how I've been doing simul-casting media with friends. πΊ
If you want to simulcast a video with friends, https://potato.land is a handy little web app.

What does it feel like you need right now? (Alternately asked, what does your *body* feel like it needs?)

@lunarised Is there some connection between knots and foxes?
I adore this poem -- it's been a bit of a guiding light π for me. It's been pinned to my browser tabs for weeks, and when I feel down I pick a stanza to read.

"In the handheld market, Yokoi's refusal to adopt a color display for the Game Boy in favor of long battery life is cited as the main reason it prevailed against Sega's Game Gear and Atari's Lynx."
@certifiedperson @sunflower_avenue has explored this a bunch, including making dyes I think from invasive plants?
