Uwu what's that? The intersection of horny and cringe.
the voice that is the intersection of gay and autistic
what is the furry fandom, (write an explanation for Nina)
Make a list of furry musicians, discuss the 3 classes of furry music-
Music adopted by furries
Music made by furries
Music made by furries for furries
see Furry Music Makers
video game music
the monster in its ability to be more then human.
the benefits or the repair of the monster
furry translators
furry text generators
which body do people focus on, the body of the 'voice actor' or the body of the character?
online sonic violence. think who is doxxed and why, does this have a relation to furry voice?
furry sound ecology, relation to furry sound and animals in the ecological sense
With the furry voice there seems to be a miss-match between the body of the speaker and the voice emitted. This is present in both the use of furry voice and the use of speaking while in fursuit.
Why are furries not suppose to speak while in fursuit?
Who is vocalizing?
what is vocalized?
what is communicated?
what is perceived? heard? noted?
what is notated ('measured')
Furry memes, how do they reference literal voice?
how is the literal voice used to represent memes?
For example Uwu whats this? It was likely originally a text meme, but it is now commonly a vocal expression
How do people make assumptions about speech at cons?
One can talk differently at a con without any confusions about it, why is that? There is a sense of consensus about a shift in language, a code switching? or is it something else? I continuous and mass role play of sorts? is it a special performance?
collective noise making. starting a 'howl' as a group
The muffled voice- The voice of a fursuit, projection through a fursuit
The voiceless, fursuiting and only signing
ventriloquism in suit is it my voice or the voice of my sona?
Is there a distinct voice that furries have?
what is the vernacular, mannerisms, and inflection of that voice?
What element does cringe play in this?
is there a relationship to the child voice, the queer voice, and the autistic voice?
Is infantilization a key element of this?
Furry online spaces. Define how telegram, twitter and other online spaces define how furries communicate.
This is not the voice, but informs the voices with a back and forth of culture and communication.
for example Uwu and owo both are a visual object (faces) as well as pronounced and spoken language. There is an element of how the online informs the spoken and the spoken then feedbacks to the online.
