## What ugly things
Carson in her text explains how the direct mode of address of these women's voices was annoying for the patriarchal society. A woman would expose her inside facts that are supposed to be private data. Examples of these facts would be emotions that reveal pleasure or pain either from sexual encounters from before or the birth of a child. This direct continuity between the inside and outside was a threat for the human nature and society.
It has been established that our inner desires and needs have to be expressed indirectly through speech and in the case of women through their men’s speech.

A woman would expose her inside facts that are supposed to be private data. The dark side and fear of death, blood the female body, "By projections and leakages of all kinds- somatic, vocal, emotional, sexual- females expose or expend what should be kept in" (Carson, 1996, pg. 129). Examples of these facts would be emotions that reveal pleasure or pain either from sexual encounters from before or the birth of a child. This direct continuity between the inside and outside was a threat for the human nature and society as it was not filtrated through the rational toll of human, 'speech'. It has been established that our inner desires and needs have to be expressed indirectly through speech and in the case of women through their men’s speech (text of Kanaveli).

what ugly things? aischrologia and unspeakable things in charge of the city pg.132-133
As I described in "Monstrosity" one ugly form of address was an utterance, a high-pitched cry, called ‘ololyga’ and it is a ritual practice of women sometimes in important daily moments like death and the birth of a child. In their rituals women were also talking ugly and bad things. These unpleasant tendencies of them had to stay hidden from the men’s view. But in Dionysian festivals the task of one selected woman would be to discharge the unspeakable things on behalf of the city, that was called ‘aischrologia’ leading to ‘katharsis’.‘Aischrologia’ seems similar to the therapeutical practice of hypnosis by Freud on hysterical women. Their emotions, the unspeakable things, were polluting their inside and ‘talking cure’ or otherwise ‘katharsis’ would help them. A more recent one is 'hysteria', introduced by Freud, that expresses the psychic events within the woman's body

Talkativness/ gossiping
For feminists in the early 20th century the speech in public is externalizing the personal violence and suppression of women. Alternative ways of communication hidden in the private domains have been created in response to that. Gossip, for example, "provides subordinated classes with a mode of communication beyond an official public culture from which they are excluded" (The Gossip, 2017, p.61). It is more an attempt to claim and exchange knowledge when there is no platform for them.

## Streaming media in relation to continuity
The ancients would believe that the female body has two mouths that are linked together and in the middle a hollow cavity.
In the ancient medical and anatomical theory women had two mouths, the upper and the lower, connected through a neck. The lips of both of them guarded the “hollow cavity” (Carson, 1996, pg. 131) and they should remain closed.
Female is associated with the bad things of the collective memory. Freud would cure that by channeling these negative emotions through politically appropriated containers. Having two mouths that speak simultaneously is confusing and embarrassing and this creates ‘kakophony’.

===== Structure of the text =====
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)
