The thesis is a series of 6 essays which relate to the voice and its mediation. The texts deals particularly with the voice as a medium for collective practices (see *The roots of collective voice*). Historically, some voices and modes of addressing have been marginalized and shut out of the public domain (see *the monstrosity of female voices*); collective voice affords the amplification and multiplication either with the aid of technology or embodied practices (see *Multiplication vis a vis amplification*); there is a fear of ugly forms of address which are connected to the female body _ blood, birth, death, mourning &c. These are forms of vocalization which are excluded public discourse which centers on “self-control”, “reason”. Such things are creating noise and disorder and "have to be kept" silent according to the patriarchal norms (see *transmittingugly things*). There are technologies for such things, the men are taught to disport themselves in particular ways and they are taught to teach the women to be silent. In the current era we see how technologies serve to filter forms of collective voices; again this aims to reduce “noise” (see *oxymoron of democracy*). Practices of resistance (see *Let’s talk about unspeakable things*)
Public speech and the parallel presence in digital and physical spaces through the use of bottom-up mediums.
===== Statement =====
The public space in its broader sense (online, physical) is an open platform for public speakers. Sound devices and open speech tools can be used as radical tools for spreading the message. What approaches are used by radio artists, hackers and feminists to support the speaker.
The text can take the form of radio show, song, theatre play, script, python script, structure of phonetic rules (ref: "Speech for the stage"), structure of pocketsphinx (tool for speech recognition), audio book (uploaded in XPPL:)), a feminist manifesto, like a guide. The purpose is to find other ways to talk about a topic in an academic context. It is my intention the structure of the text to talk also about the topic (ref: Amy's ref, DiY survival ).<br/>
What forms of presentation are appropriate for this practice? I want to build a way for that. My project proposes a range of possibilities and parallel processes (live action, happening at the same time or with delay). "since the arts are grounded in the material structure of society, artists must revolutionize the means by which their work is produced and distributed. One way this can be accomplished is for authors to be involved in publishing"(O'Rourke, pg.xiii). I will add parts of my project (texts, samples) in the thesis
