This video refers <a href="http://www.overtone.cc/photo/spektrografi-1?context=album&amp;albumId=884327%3AAlbum%3A86292">to this image here on OMN:</a><br /> With an aspiration to become the Betty Dodson of the vocal folds, an exercise with the back rounded vowels, which may bring out the first elements of the harmonic series.<br /> This is not 'overtone athletics', I aim to use 'neutral', not constrained voice quality with a focus on carefully shaping the vocal tract and the lips... and listening!<br /> <br /> It is the merging of phonetics, music and mathematics in one natural primordial and holistic language.<br /> <br /> Proportion/ Interval/ approximate vowel sound (please do not interprete the correlation too rigidly!):<br /> 2:3/ just fifth/ [u]<br /> 3:4/ just fourth/ [o]<br /> 4:5/ just major third/ [ɔ]<br /> 5:6/ just minor third/ [ɑ]<br /> <br /> To separate the vowel sounds I use the [ŋ] nasal which also helps accentuating the overtones.<br /> <br /> NB! It will probably be beneficial to begin the exercise with only two neighbouring elements.<br /> <br /> 4:5:6, - the major triad - is a signpost which is really worth listening for and practising the accentuation of to find orientation in the harmonic universe.
