I imagine "gymnast to house painter" *exactly* like this scene in (the rather wonderful) The Illusionist: youtu.be/4xh-Hz14AA4 and it makes me want to make a drastic career change...

#voiceactor logic:

I’m so exhausted I’m ready to cry and it’s late and I wanna go to bed… but I’m gonna do this audition first, because if a dozen things I can’t control align perfectly with all the effort and practice and money I’ve put in, I might get to be the voice of this talking avocado! 🥑

I'm thinking of terms like inverse kinematics in robotics etc. An inverse telescope would have the opposite function imo, but a reverse telescope would involve just looking down the big end, I think?

Catherine Pip @catherinepip.bsky.social · 26d

Hmmm... inverse, maybe? An inverse telescope, an inverse speaker...?
